This Corona stuff really sucks ey! Since we might all be bound by borders for a while, we’d like to come together and share some happiness in the shape of a playlist or mix!

In the next days and weeks, check out Safe & Sounds, where we will figuratively introduce you to and put you in touch with music whizzes, featuring their selections, collections and picks from all around the globe.

Be “Safe & Sounds” and wash your hands!

While in lockdown, I have dusted out some Somali music I compiled five years ago for a beautiful exhibition. While the sound quality of some recordings is a bit compromised (no represses were used), this music is too good to be silenced.
