Koniya by Orchestra Gold
With original lyrics by Mariam Diakite, Koniya or "There's no benefit to envy," reminds us that it's not to our advantage to be envious; there is no point. It only serves to make us suffer. With its heavy psych-rock influence and groovy rhythmic foundation complete with analog grit, this groove will get you on the dance floor.
Orchestra Gold is a spell cast in rhythm and reverie. Psychedelic rock collides with Malian soul in a sonic ritual where fate dances with free will. Guitars shimmer like heatwaves. Horns speak in tongues. Grooves pull you sideways through time. It’s spiritual. It’s sweaty. It’s a portal. Step in.
