Includes unlimited streaming of Daïsm via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. Eurorack tweaker, 8-bit master, king of carnival madness, Dutch producer Solo Moderna is back with his female alter ego singer Krage, for a perfect fusion of Afro-Latin and Caribbean rhythms with modern synth pop.
Highly entertaining, Clever and unique blend of organic sounds, samples and vintage synths tweaking, "Daïsm" is a fun and enjoyable journey to the frontiers between mento, dub, rocksteady and cumbia with a twist.
Certainly not your average tropical music.

This new album is definitely a step up for one of our all-time favourite artists, as he's now reached the next level of mastering the fusion of genres and finally found his soulmate singer, Krage. Together, they found their very own way of expressing their love for nature and diversity through universal language.

Hailing from Tilburg in the Netherlands, Solo Moderna is one of the instigators of the "Global Bass" movement of the 2000s, and a pioneer of Jazzdance music and Balkan Beats. With three albums and numerous remixes to his credit, signed to labels such as Tru Thoughts or Agogo, the particularity of this talented multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer is to be equally at ease on the guitar, ukulele and bass, than on the flute, vintage "Eurorack" type synthesizers and numerous Latin and Oriental percussions. Recently acclaimed by BBC6 Music among others, his offbeat remixes and covers of digital reggae, electrofunk and 80s classics have earned him to be featured in numerous radio playlists.
For several years now, the artist has been teaming up with French-Colombian label Galletas Calientes Records to produce resolutely Afro-Latin American pieces, and his fourth album, “Daïsm”, expected at the end of May 2024, composed largely with Dutch singer Krage, brings together all these influences.
Joyful, danceable, humorous, offbeat, psychedelic and experimental, the music of Solo Moderna fits perfectly with the lyrics of Krage, who in a post-punk spirit, sings effortlessly in a language of her own invention: a tasty idiomatic mix of English , French, Spanish, Jamaican Patois, or Quechua.
Difficult indeed to put a label on the artist's music, or to enclose it in a particular genre, but it is undoubtedly inspired by South American musical styles such as cumbia or reggaeton, by Caribbean traditions such as mento or reggae, modern African rhythms, a certain European swing, and an electronic and post-punk environment; undoubtedly unclassifiable, but immediately recognizable due to its unique universe and its peculiar fusion of genres and production techniques.
For the release of "Daïsm", Solo Moderna has put together a group of four musicians, who will make us dance, travel and dream, to the rhythms of exotic percussions, Hammond and Farfisa organs, vocals, ukulele, loopstation, bass, guitar and sampler.

Upcoming new vinyl album will be releasing medio 2024 on French Colombian Galletas Calientes Records! So stay tuned!

¡El próximo nuevo álbum de vinilo se lanzará a mediados de 2024 en la Frances Colombiano Galletas Calientes Records!
¡Así que estad atentos!
