“Creole Afro-futurists” Dowdelin’s gentle-yet-propulsive rhythms on “I Ka Woulé” set a perfect New Year’s tone.
“Creole Afro-futurists” Dowdelin will drop their third LP Tchenbé ! on Feb. 14, 2025 and as part of this edition of MBE, you’ll hear the album’s second single “I Ka Woulé” before it hits DSPs on Jan. 10. Expect to give the rewind button on your browser a workout, as the track’s gentle-yet-propulsive rhythms and language-transcending message of “failure is not the end of the road” set a perfect tone for the new year.
Plus, more forthcoming 2025 records that you’ll want to keep on your radar: Sharon Van Etten’s Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory, Okonski’s Entrance Music, and Saya Gray’s SAYA.
