There’s no such thing as competition
To find our way we lose control
Remember love’s our only mission
It is the journey of the soul
The perfect song is framed with silence
It speaks of places never seen
Your homes a promise long forgotten
It is brith place of your dreams
Oh, dreams, beyond dreams
Beyond life, you will find your song

This song has always held such a deep place in our hearts, especially in ceremony.

This is our cover of @daftpunk Beyond, with @maltemarten. We’re so grateful to have him accompanying us on handpan, bringing such beautiful emotional depth and energy to a song that means so much to us.

Special thanks also to @kaiomusic on violin and Adi on double bass for bringing their magic to the song.
We hope these lyrics and this song touch your heart as deeply as they touch ours every time we sing it and that you can feel the hope and spirit within it.

Beyond is now available on all platforms.

KiKiKi is now out on YouTube! Link in bio

We’re so excited to finally share this live version with you. We filmed it while visiting our beautiful friend Isi in Sardinia, and it feels so special to have this little moment captured as a family

This uplifting, cheeky song was created during our honeymoon, or, as we like to call it, our diet moon , because we spent more time dieting in the jungle than sipping coconuts on the beach 😂

Anyway, we hope it brings a little joy to your day… and that you find yourself whistling it on the way home.

Should we release it on music platforms?

Much love 🤍

I bought a pair of vintage Neumann V476B preamps and W491 EQs — untested, straight off eBay, sold as broken. Could be a goldmine. Could be very expensive paperweights…

I got them well under market value, especially because I took two of each to make a stereo channel strip. No idea if they are working, but I have a very good feeling about them. 😎

The Danner rack is ordered. In about a month, once it arrives, I’ll wire these units up and we’ll find out together — live, unfiltered, no idea what’s coming.

Follow along for the full journey: the gamble, the rack build, and the moment we power them on for the first time. 🔌✨

We’re so excited that NEW DAWN is finally out — the full song and video

What a journey it has been, from the moment it was created until now. This project has been born from deep love, intention, and prayer.

Thank you to all of you — everyone who has been in ceremony with us, who has heard this song in its raw form, who has been moved by it , shed a tear with us , a sigh of relief …. It means so much that it now lives and can be listened to whenever you feel called.

If you’re going to listen, we really invite you to take a moment — put on headphones, lie down, close your eyes, and allow yourself to be taken on a journey. And if you can, we highly recommend watching the video as well. It touches on love, life, and the vast cosmic universe we are all part of.

This is also a piece that asks for a little patience — we truly encourage you to stay with it and journey into the second half.

A huge thank you to:
Nick Burtonmoore for filming with us, @nickburtonmoore
Ali Naddafi for your beautiful editing and bringing the vision to life, @030ring
Kyle Stroebel for the stunning colour grading, @stroobzz
and @makembaboutique for the beautiful clothing.

Video directed by @carolinemackintosh
Song produced by @bummela

It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life… and we’re feeling good.

And of course, deep gratitude to Nina Simone, the original source.

We love you all 💛

Two very exciting things are coming up for us and we couldn’t quite decide what to share first 🙌🙌🙌

Tomorrow, New Dawn is finally being released, and we’re incredibly excited to share it with you.

Then, on Wednesday the 10th, we’ll be performing a beautiful concert with Genevieve and Milo at the Genezareth Church.

If you’d like to join us, tickets are available via the link in our bio. And tomorrow you can also listen and watch the epic video we made for New Dawn with @nickburtonmoore and @030ring through the link in our bio.

Much love. ❤️ by @bummela

KICKING OFF TOMORROW:

METROnOMpolis: Yoga & Breath on Beats 75EN by Gigi x Bummela

Join us Wednesday nights at our new METROnOMpolis class format with Gigi at Three Boons Yoga Mitte.

Rooted in the asana and spiritual teachings passed down by his teacher, Anja, Gigi now invites his music producer persona, Bummela, into the practice space, merging rhythm, breath, sound, and collective movement into one shared pulse.

Breath and movement are precisely synchronized to samples, loops, and curated tracks, holding each practitioner to the full duration of the breath. The shared rhythm draws the practice into a unified flow, pointing directly to the insight that separation is an illusion.

Breath becomes rhythm. Rhythm becomes sound. The practice locks into music with unwavering precision. Each movement is timed and counted, merging body, breath, and beat into one steady pulse. This is where Bummela meets Gigi, where sound design and sadhana converge.

A space to experience discipline as freedom, and rhythm as a doorway into stillness, inspired by the precision of the metronome, the vibration of Oṁ, and the ancient Greek idea of the polis (πόλις) not as a huge city, but as a gathering of likeminded people. Experience how individual movement can dissolve into unified flow, forming an urban sāṅgha moving and breathing as one pulse.

Selected classes will feature guest ambient artists and electronic performers, receiving a clock signal

On the 5th of June, we’re releasing our next single, New Dawn, and we thought it’d be nice to share the story behind the song — how it came to life, when inspiration first struck, and a little more about the video as well.

We’re also so grateful to @nickburtonmoore and Ali Naddafi @030ring for helping us create the video, which we’re equally excited to release. It’s a super special one.

We hope you enjoy hearing about the process.

Much love from us.
