Berlin, you understood the assignment. ❤️‍🔥

One moving sound system, a packed Straße des 17. Juni and a city dancing together. The Paradise Worldwide Float brought DJs, live moments, and independent music into the streets for Rave The Planet 2026.

A reminder of why Berlin’s parade culture remains unmatched: open, loud, free and built around community.

Thank you to every artist behind the decks, everyone who danced alongside us, and our partners and sponsors @algoriddimofficial, @alphatheta_emea, and @cicberlin for helping us put it all in motion.

This was our #ImagineLOVE.

I’m excited to finally share my new EP, Zimbwe, coming out on July 31th on @paradisesoundsystem 🔥
These two tracks represent a sound I’ve been working on with passion, and I’m really happy to finally share them with you all.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported this release and to Paradise Sound System for believing in the project.

I hope you enjoy these tracks as much as @chichuanmusic and I enjoyed creating them.

Special thanks to @ericaprovenzanophotographer for creating this beautiful video and bringing my emotions and vision to life.

What a week!

ARMC 2026 was a reminder of the power of community, collaboration, and the incredible momentum behind African music right now.

As part of the @paradiseworldwide__ family, it was amazing to contribute to another successful edition of the conference and connect with artists, executives, creatives, and innovators from around the world.

A personal highlight was moderating The Lekompo Wave with @janesh_singer and @hitboss_rsa , discussing the rise of one of South Africa’s most exciting emerging genres and the cultural movement behind it.

Then came ARMC By Night, where I had the chance to jump behind the decks and share the lineup with @murdahbongz @dj_buhle @henrikschwarzlive and many other incredible artists.

We also announced the ARMC Mentorship Programme, in partnership with the @germanyinsa and @paradiseworldwide__ . This initiative will give selected participants access to one-on-one mentorship from industry professionals in Germany, along with support around artist development, content, and release strategy.

If you’re an emerging artist or music professional looking to grow your career, I highly encourage you to apply.

Application link available in @africa_rising_music_conference bio.

Grateful to everyone who contributed to making this year’s conference such a success!
