Afro house luminary MoBlack teams up with South African artist Nana Atta on “Kuwe” – a seamless blend of MoBlack’s masterful craft and Nana Atta’s soul-stirring vocals, creating an evocative journey through lyrical poetry and sound.
Propulsive house rhythms and poignant melodies interweave with tender riffs and lush percussive layers, each element soothingly uplifting. As electronic pulses replicate in harmonious progressions, “Kuwe” exudes a warmth that touches the spirit. It’s a song that connects, resonates, and liberates the body in movement.
