‘Runnin’’ is the second solo single by Berlin-based vocalist and writer douniah. ‘Runnin’ sees douniah joined by Birmingham’s okcandice, the duo trading sultry and uplifting vocal motifs amongst twinkling Rhodes Keys, Soulquarian-esque basslines and low-slung beats. Meditating on life and loss, douniah explains: “Candice and I had many conversations about Grief and the various processes of letting go. Pondering restlessness, kicking in the nighttime when our bodies should get to rest. We run in circles with thoughts that seem to have no beginning nor end.”

After her acclaimed joint 2019 album ‘Dream Baby’ with producer High John, douniah now releases her debut solo EP ‘A Lot, Not Too Much’ on 17th November (LP & digital). The project will be accompanied by a short film, directed by Elena Cremona and Nils Hansen. The first single ‘Sabah Al Noor’ has been received very well and took over the airwaves on Rinse FM, NTS, and WDR Cosmo.

Agadir-born and Hamburg-raised, douniah engages in the practice of interpreting her spirit, impressively, in German, Darija, and English. Her distinct yet genre-fluid expression is well-honed, with the ability to execute various roles in the creative process with a number of collaborators – notably her omnipresence on the electronic Lost Papers EP with Yoofee, and single ‘Space for the kidd’ from Move78’s forthcoming album Grains. The interdisciplinary songstress warmly credits her sonic inspirations from hubs such as the pioneering Black communities across America, all the way to North Africa - where Gnaoua and Raï music gave something tangible to a young douniah listening to her mother's collection. 

douniah has developed a reputation in the scene for sublime live performances. “I think that my audience knows me through my performances and continued to grow from there.” She has notably supported Children of Zeus and Sudan Archives across the German leg of their European and world tours respectively, and most recently enchantingly set the stage for Rochelle Jordan’s show at Kantine am Berghain Further, she has played at Elbphilharmonie Hamburg was one of the very few musicians on the bill at Documenta fifteen.
