We proudly present: Timezones Nigeria, a 22-track compilation created to honor the depth and diversity of Nigeria’s instrumental music, while forging new connections between Nigerian & Chillhop-affiliated artists.

Dedicated to the people driving the sound forward, half the compilation is driven purely by a lineup of Nigeria’s brightest producers and artists, who deliver vibes upon vibes through a chill, instrumental lens. And then, 11 collaborative tracks featuring Chillhop-affiliated artists are scattered across the tracklist, bridging two musical styles in new ways while ensuring that the Nigerian sound remains dominant.

To ensure that Timezones Nigeria reflects the depth and nuance of the country’s music and visual culture, we partnered with Nigerian visual artists and illustrators to develop the project’s artwork and visual identity, and tapped a Nigerian cultural advisor to guide our decisions with care and awareness at every step. The result is a compilation that’s equal parts grounded and innovative, with afrobeats, alté and highlife instrumentals driving the sound.

This is just the beginning. With Timezones, we aim to continue highlighting pioneering instrumental scenes across the globe and creating new connections with one goal: curating boundary-pushing instrumental music that pays homage to its roots.

But for now, press play and enjoy. This is Nigeria’s moment.

Alone Together

A spectral soundscape beyond genres, summoned through Gensō Zufu—my personal diagram of sonic visions.
Neither electronic nor jazz. Merely a phantom that chose this form to arrive.
What do you hear in it? What do you feel?
What do you think?

This track began as a sketch on Push 3, but evolved into something entirely different.
Somehow, it reminds me of animals running through the savanna.
What does it make you imagine?

The Chain Under the Chirp

A three-movement suite drifting from chaos, through a catalytic shift, into raw motion.
Call it an EDM opera, if you will.

Kagamiwa-jazz-GENSOU ZUFF#3

A beat crafted like a jazz session—cutting up sounds, layering fragments, chasing the unexpected.
That’s what Kagamiwa Jazz is.

I created this 8-minute electronic soundscape as a space for inner adventure.
Emotions drift, collide, separate, reunite, and mature—shaping a quiet storm within.
The piece is an answer to the far side of the moon, charged with the power of the sun.
