2 [LP]

Yalla Miku - 2 [LP]

LP version. After a critically praised debut in 2023 and numerous tours across Europe, Yalla Miku returns with 2, a new record that further asserts their unique identity. Still based in Geneva, the band moves forward with a reimagined lineup -- not as a departure, but as the natural continuation of a project envisioned from the start as a space for encounters, movement, and musical reinvention. Blending post-kraut grooves, mutant folklore and electronic trance, Yalla Miku continues to spark dialogue between traditions from the Horn of Africa and the most unrestrained experiments of Geneva's underground. The krar riffs of Samuel Ades Tesfagergsh, the sculptural bass of Louise Knobil, the taut percussion of Cyril Bondi, the raw electronics of Emma Souharce, and Cyril Yeterian's modified banjo weave a dense, collective sonic fabric, full of sharp turns and rhythmic surges. There's no smooth fusion here, nor any fixed folklore: 2 is an interplanetary journey where multiple voices overlap, clash or complement each other. It's a music of otherness, built as a shared space where each texture keeps its own roughness. With this second album, Yalla Miku digs deeper into its sound: raw, militant, unclassifiable -- for curious ears and open hearts. 01. Al Sayf (3:14)_x000D_ 02. Alemuye (3:49)_x000D_ 03.
