An Alien Called Harmony

Award-winning poet-songwriter and visual artist, Nadeem Din-Gabisi’s work seeks to reimagine and investigate blackness as it pertains to his experiences as a British-born, second-generation immigrant of Sierra Leonean descent. Born in the UK, raised in Japan and California before returning to the UK as an adult, Momoko Gill is a composer, producer, drummer and multi-instrumentalist. Uniting as An Alien Called Harmony, their debut EP is like a message in a bottle from another galaxy – a hopeful and subtly profound exploration of the state of the world, from the perspective of two curious outsiders. Five tracks of Brainfeeder-esque cosmic world-building, An Alien Called Harmony offers an astute social commentary in the spirit of hip-hop innovators Shabazz Palaces. Animated by love and empathy, it holds a mirror up to the realities of mortality and conflict, forging a hybrid sound defined by sonic playfulness, spontaneous improvisation and just a little philosophical questioning.
