It’s the first track on his EP Raízes Reimaginadas, where he adds a modern twist to traditional Portuguese folk music using Amapiano and Afro-House sounds.
This particular track is a bridge between old moral wisdom and modern electronic production: a humble, grounded folk song rebuilt for modern taste, diaspora ears and curious global listeners.
Between Lisbon, Cape Town, and Dubai, ShAIkh Kev crafts a diasporic sound where Afro-House and Amapiano meet introspective electronica and honest rap.
A new offering from Jenny Gillespie Mason (Ship Says Om )the singer/multi-instrumentalist behind Sis and the Lower Wisdom, Dream Journal is a collection of six ambient folk-influenced tracks, drawing from shamanic, Celtic, and global sounds, infusing it with the depth and solace of a psychedelic guided-therapy playlist.
Time-dilated vocal traces drift through “Samadhi,” where field recordings and blurred piano motifs create a meditative entryway into translucent synth-inspired hues and gentle strumming.
It takes over two weeks to reach it by ship. TELLL only travelled to Point Nemo in their imagination.
Nevertheless, the result is an atmospheric, melancholic electro-pop song about the loneliest place on Earth. *At 1:02 min, there is hope of a relaxing return.
Staying through to her name Ifunanya which translates to Love in Igbo, the Nigerian-American artist celebrates love and life on the five-track project.
“I’m always working on my music and I’m happiest when I’m recording,” Ify says. Love Haze is my personal Valentine’s Day gift to my fans and I’m thrilled that I can finally share it with them.”
