Aaaand we're back in it! What's good y'all, hope you had a restful holiday season, and are ready to start the new year re-energized. In the new year I want to lean in more to the more relaxed, more experimental kind of mixes that are more doable in an online mix form. So with that, a looser, vibes based one this month. I'm definitely always fluctuating between radio energy and club energy on these lol, there's just too much music out there. Anyways, hope ya dig this one!

Cologne duo solo nour kicks off the year with their new single, ‘no worries’. Delivering uplifting grooves and soulful melodies that embody the duo’s carefree, forward-looking ethos, the track invites listeners to embrace life’s unpredictability with optimism and warmth.

Comprising Billie Barleben on vocals and Anatolian Lover on production, solo nour is more than just a musical collaboration — it’s a creative journey shaped by friendship, experimentation, and a shared passion for storytelling. Their name itself is a testament to their illuminating artistry, fusing the Spanish sol and Arabic nour, both symbolozing “light.”

Billie Barleben—yes, that is her real name—is a trained actress and loves to dance. In addition to her artistic pursuits, she is involved with the project minhafaktur, a cooperative in Cologne-Poll that creates spaces for collaborative and interdisciplinary work. At the first event she organized, Yaşar Fidan—known as Anatolian Lover—also performed. Anatolian Lover grew up in Ankara and Ingolstadt. He is a beatmaker with a classic hip-hop background and has released various works with Dezibelle Records from Berlin. He is also an aspiring social worker who conducts workshops on racial equality, diversity, and masculinity.

It took a second meeting for Billie Barleben and Anatolian Lover to come together as solo nour. The fact that this happened at a surf camp in France is a charming anecdote, but not the main point. A few weeks later—in Winter 2023—they met for the first time in Yaşar's home studio in Cologne-Mühlheim. Since then, they’ve hardly ever stopped making music.

“At some point, I received a message from Yaşar that he needed a break from me because he couldn't hear my voice anymore over all the mixing. At that time, there were ten songs in progress—simultaneously. Now it’s fine again,” Billie jokes, adding, “Our music has become a place of encounter and connection. With solo nour, a deep friendship has also developed.”

This is a friendship they now want to share with the rest of the world. It’s about time, we think, because the way solo nour brings together hip-hop, indie, soul, and pop is very much worth a listen.
