Lui Mafuta presents This Ain’t Jazz, a boundary-pushing new EP that fuses live musicianship
with electronic sensibility - an exploration of jazz influence through a deeply personal and
collaborative lens. 

The release is available on digital platforms and as a limited vinyl edition.

At the heart of This ain’t Jazz is a long gestating idea: to bridge electronic music with an
organic, band oriented aesthetic. Lui Mafuta reunited with four longtime friends and
collaborators: Paul Janoschka, Felix Roos, Jonas Esser and Benedikt Jäckle - who all studied
music together in Mannheim before scattering across the globe. Under the loose collective
named Weiller, they came together once again to create a sound that lives between genres.

The EP is a globe spanning production. Piano was recorded on Paul Janoschka’s Steinway in
his Frankfurt apartment; trumpet and clarinet were tracked in a rural French studio with Felix
Roos; drums came from New York via Jonas Esser; and saxophone was laid down in Lui’s own
studio in Mannheim alongside Benedikt Jäckle. All elements were finally assembled and
shaped into a cohesive vision back in Mannheim.

“There’s less synth work on this one than usual,” Lui says. “Most of the textures come from
the instruments themselves and a lot of sample mangling. I wanted it to feel raw, human and
alive.”
Despite its title, This Ain’t Jazz is a love letter to jazz’s influence. “I called it that just to be
safe,” Lui jokes. “It isn’t jazz but it’s coming from that space.” The project also serves as a
reconnection to his roots: two of the four featured musicians are teenage friends from his
earliest days making music.

Lui Mafuta - Tauber

Comfort Zone is the first single from Seyde’s upcoming debut album of the same name. Thoughtful and understated, the track captures the tension between familiarity and change — between safety and the quiet pull of the unknown.
The track moves through what feels safe and what lies beyond. It’s about that quiet threshold where the familiar starts to shift and comfort begins to unravel. Uncertainty takes over, but so does growth. 
The full album Comfort Zone will be released on October 30.

Comfort Zone moves between stillness and motion, between what grounds us and what unsettles us. It’s an album about balance — about knowing when to rest and when to move, when to hold on and when to let go.

The comfort zone is not one thing. It’s the familiar rhythm of everyday life — the way things have always been, where everything feels known, effortless, and undisturbed. Yet it’s also the quiet safety we build to keep from being overwhelmed.
A soft line separates what we know from what we might become. Comfort is a circle: inside, everything moves slowly, gently repeating itself. To step beyond it can feel like a quiet breaking, a necessary loss.
Outside lies uncertainty, where control gives way to growth. It’s uncomfortable, sometimes chaotic, but essential. Old patterns dissolve and new ways of being begin to take shape.

Musically, Comfort Zone drifts through harmonic warmth and gentle energy: floating grooves, soft pulses, and melodies that breathe. Each track moves with intention, but t’s a sound that invites rather than insists. Grounded yet weightless, warm yet searching.
