Daily fuel to load your sonic batteries…

Fascinating duo THE CHRONICLES OF MANIMAL AND SAMARA featuring Andrea Papi (music composition, keyboard, electric bass, guitar) and Daphne Ang (lyricist and vocals) does not stop to impress. Turn Up The Volume already named them “the most intriguing find of the year” after previous singles Deus Ex Machina and Psychopath’s Monologue. And their new spacey piece confirms that nomination.

MATA HARI – meaning sun in Malay language – is a slowdown trip-hop trip with a relaxing repercussion on your worried 2020 thoughts, an ambient soundscape for the midnight hours. British 90s dance act Leftfield came instantly to my mind, especially that tipsy track
on their debut LP called Original with the sensual ex-Curve‘s singer Toni Halliday.

TCOMAS continue their otherworldly wanderings combining fascinating poetry with
equally fascinating vibrations. Imaginative, adventurous and ghostly. Don’t miss them…

Ps: just like many of you out there I also thought
when seeing the title of this track that it was about
that legendary dancer and double-secret spy called
Mata Hari
