Hailing from Tilburg in the Netherlands, 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 Asian 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. Undoubtedly inspired by South American musical styles such as cumbia or reggaeton, by Caribbean traditions such as mento or reggae, modern African rhythms and an electronic and post-punk environment but immediately recognizable due to 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!
