Swiss electro-pop outfit Namaka releases a new EP ‘Water On The Sun’. Open-minded and honest, the songs celebrate feminine strength and empowered vulnerability. More empathy, less pride. After talking about unreal appearances in single ‘Butterflies’ and an everyone’s land in ‘Rainbow In Berlin’, ‘Water on The Sun’ honors emotionality as a strong tenderness rising in our bodies and drowning our fears. 

Namaka recorded the EP during a session in singer Sophie Adam’s family house in northern Italy. Analogical and digital, organic and mechanical; the band finds its balance in between driving electronic beats and fluid pop melodies. It feels like this one moment after going out on a rave. Still slightly euphoric, you just sit there and rest with the first light of the day.

No Man's Land

In a world in which walls grow out of fear and pride, the new single by Swiss electro-pop outfit Namaka is an ode to unity and freedom. Rainbow In Berlin celebrates open hearts. Inspired by the sun of a recording session in Italy, it slightly glows with a delicate euphoria. After their first single Butterflies (featured on Spotify’s New Music Friday), Rainbow In Berlin is the second forerunner of their upcoming EP Water On The Sun.

Namaka is the electronic alt-pop duo formed by Sophie Adam and Philipp Schlotter. Constantly seeking for change and evolution, they are not afraid of reinventing themself on each record. Their music is like a body, always in motion, thorn in between analogical and digital, the organic and the mechanical. While their first EP « Apron Ties » celebrated wide fluid spaces and reminded here and there of the Icelandic Singer Björk, their second EP « Water On The Sun », released on Mouthwatering Records in May 2020, shined with a brighter energy and playfulness. Open-minded and lightly euphoric, the EP could take place in between records of Little Dragon or Vök.
 
Turning inwards, their first album « Restore », released on November 26th, 2021 is a personal introspection in the mechanisms of a break up. Human and honest, it reflects the inner struggle of every feeling that comes with it, like a photograph of the universe inside.  For this record, the band worked with the Irish producer David Odlum, who helped with the production and mixed the album. Thoughtfully layered, it flows with this uncontrolled electricity, shaking and soothing at once. For the first time on a record, Namaka featured an electric bass - giving it the role of a second narrative alongside the voice, telling simultaneously the same story, both from  their own point of view.
