Watch Owiny Sigoma Bands' concert footage video for the highly hypnotic "Nyiduonge Drums"
The pitched-up synth and beat progression in Owiny Sigoma Band's "Niyudonge Drums" puts you in a slightly-dazed and highly hypnotic trance until the whole thing reaches its climax around the 2-minute mark. Watch the sepia-tinged video for the track, featuring splices of the band's live festival shows, below and find it on the limited edition Owiny Techno 12" at the Brownswood Store/ Juno Records/ Piccadilly Records.

The single, featuring Olayinka Ehi, comes off his latest EP Full Moon Weekends.
Nigerian singer-songwriter Whoisakin is sharing a new music video to accompany his hit summer release, "Magic".
His roots certainly show true as his Lagos inspired trap soul/R&B sounds fill us up with feelings of summer and a love made from dreams.
High off of a recent feature in Rolling Stone, Whoisakin's latest music video comes off of his debut EP Full Moon Weekends, his first release as a part of Mr Eazi's #emPawa30 project.
With all of the successes and accomplishments that have come along with it, the original story behind the song isn't as sweet, "Magic was actually inspired by a summer 2019 fling I had with some girl", the 22-year-old singer says, "Even though I thought the relationship had potential at the early stages, she never felt the same way and it was just 'vibes' for her. I mean the moments were beautiful but they never lasted. I made the record a few weeks after we were over. She got upset at me and that was it."
He went on to speak about his first release into the music industry as, "a full story about me and my relationships in 2019, basically. I was doing an internship with some construction company at the time so I had a whole lot of time to live life (especially the nightlife), experience new things. So, I felt like an animated series for the whole tape would be the best way to share the story better. Plus, I'm a big anime fan."
