GRAHAM SMYTH KALIMBARAMA (FOR RAVING)

Irish musician and DJ Graham Smyth has revealed his debut album, Music For Babies To Rave And Sleep To. One of the album’s highlights, ‘Kalimbarama (For Raving)’ is a Kalimba-forward piece of ‘rave music for babies’. It’s a gentle piece of ambient music designed to avoid dissonance and harsh sounds in order to feel more like a lullaby, but with the modern production and dance-inspired beats that can appeal to both children and their parents. The album cleverly uses builds to lead into the ‘rave’ tracks, and comedowns to take the listener into the ‘sleep’ movements. Experience the whole journey through Music For Babies To Rave And Sleep To now. -Dan Peeke
