    Miami-based, Colombian-born singer-songwriter Mirey Mualin has released “So I Hear (You Love Me),” an Afrobeats-pop song about taking a chance on a potential relationship after hearing someone express their feelings.

    Released on September 25, 2026, the track combines a violin opening with a relaxed Afrobeats groove and Afro-house influences. At approximately 102 BPM, the arrangement gradually builds while maintaining a mellow rhythm.

    Mualin wrote the lyrics and describes the song as a moment of uncertainty that leads to a decision to explore a romantic connection. Her music spans Caribbean pop, retro soul, Afro-house and hip-hop.

    Born in Barranquilla, Colombia, Mualin is a bilingual artist based in Miami, where she also works in real estate. She uses artificial intelligence in her production process, which she describes as her “digital orchestra.”

  • Wey Simba explores percussion-led sound on “Djembe Haus 9”

    Wey Simba explores percussion-led sound on “Djembe Haus 9”

    American percussionist and recording artist Wey Simba continues his Djembe Haus series with “Djembe Haus 9,” a project built around the djembe as the central voice in the music rather than a supporting instrument.

    The sound combines African-rooted rhythms with electronic production, house and hip-hop influences. The percussion drives the arrangements, with the djembe providing the rhythmic foundation for experimentation across contemporary genres.

    Simba began playing drums at age nine and has worked as a percussionist and instructor, alongside repairing and building drums. He is the founder of Haus of Percussion and its entertainment subsidiary, Haus of Percussion Entertainment, through which he develops his recording projects.

    His work also includes Drums Power Unity (DPU), a community initiative that introduces participants to drum construction, craftsmanship, history and musical techniques. These activities reflect his broader focus on percussion as both a musical practice and a means of bringing people together.

    “Djembe Haus 9” continues Simba’s exploration of how traditional drumming can be incorporated into contemporary music while retaining the djembe’s distinctive rhythmic character.

    The project is available on streaming platforms.
