about

"A perfect blend of electronic and soul music, full of emotion, warmth and life." Complex UK on Pablo Nouvelle.

Swiss DJ, producer and filmmaker Pablo Nouvelle release his genre spanning afrobeat single ‘Milambi’ featuring the iconic Grammy-winning African vocalist Angélique Kidjo. The track arrives alongside a beautifully edited music video made up of archival footage filmed by esteemed ethnomusicologist Hugh Tracey showcasing sweeping African landscapes and dance rituals.

Inspired by his time spent touring around Eswatini and Mozambique, ‘Milambi’ is a pulsating house track with intricate layers of afrobeat groove. Sun kissed textures dance across infectious tribal rhythm whilst Kidjo’s beckoning vocal leads the way with harmonious authority. The track’s foundations are made from extracts from Hugh Tracey’s extensive library of ‘African field recordings’ which looks to reinvigorate traditional African cultural for a modern audience. ‘Milambi’ is Nouvelle’s first release of 2020 after a busy year touring and putting out two mini album projects (‘Piano Pieces’ and ‘Atlas Internet Café’).

With ‘Milambi’, Pablo has recruited three-time Grammy Award winner Angélique Kidjo. A creative force and with thirteen albums to her name, Time Magazine referred to her "Africa's premier diva". The BBC has included her in its list of the continent's 50 most iconic figures, and in 2011, The Guardian listed her as one of their Top 100 Most Inspiring Women in the World. Angélique also travels the world advocating on behalf of children in her capacity as a UNICEF and OXFAM goodwill Ambassador. She created her own charitable foundation, Batonga, dedicated to support the education of young girls in Africa.
