Maiye from Maiye EP by Yamil

Yamil delivers a stunning three-track musical sojourn, adding yet more gems to his expanding repertoire. Maiye EP embarks with an enterprising fusion of ethnic instrumentals, soulful Xhosa vocals and delicate electronic nuances. Harmonizing a choir of resolute youth with propulsive cadences and poignant chords, the spirited title track is an uplifting hymn of resilience, designed to transcend dancefloors or any space of human interaction. Following suit, Yamil weaves a prismatic tapestry of lush percussive elements, tender notes and orbicular swells. Undulated by reverent folk vocals and opaque resonance, "Kale Kale'' trails a harmonic dance between organic and synth elements that culminates in soothing consonance. The EP concludes with "Giving Love to Me," a euphoric anthem adorned with nostalgic riffs, mesmerizing rhythms, and wistful melodies. This quixotic finale resonates deeply with the fundamental drive for connection and love, embodying the power of sound to bring people together.

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 -
