Luz's forthcoming "Lelela" drifts in like nightfall, unfolding patiently and gathering strength until rhythm awakens in full bloom. In this journey, the Romanian Afro House sorceress guides us through shadows where hypnotic cadences, melodic currents, and electronic tinctures pulse like distant stars, breaking the silence with sudden light. Soulful vocals emerge, deep and human, wrapping around tender riffs that shimmer against the dark, while raw, instinctive sounds stir something primal beneath the surface. The track feels elemental—earth in its weight, air in its breath, water in its flow—each layer blurring what is real and what is imagined. Momentum builds, driving the body forward, yet soft harmonies keep the heart open, reminding us how to feel. By the time Lelela unfurls completely, you are lost within it, unsure if the rhythm is your own pulse or the life force of everything around you.

One of THE main protagonists since day one, there is nobody else around, laying foundations on this level and pushing boundaries like MoBlack Records and its founder Mimmo Falcone (MoBlack). The Italian who lived in Ghana for ten years keeps surprising the RISE team as much as the scene with those cutting edge releases and a repertoire that shouts "classic" every second minute. by RISE -
