Namibian-born artist DJ DREAS follows the momentum generated by his last release with ‘UNONA WA,’ meaning ‘children of’ in his native language of Oshiwambo. DREAS creates a masterful blend between afro house and a progressive electronic touch in a single about his beginnings.
Working once more with Berlin-based Independent Label, Paradise Sound System, they are excited to be providing support and again collaborating with DREAS and the authentic sound he is known for. DREAS has received recognition from international commercial music platforms such as Bush Radio and 5fm in South Africa, Red Bull’s official website in Austria, Thrift Social Summer Fiesta in Kenya, and ThereNoSignal in the United Kingdom in addition to The Namibian, and YFM.
‘UNONA WA‘ has already received early support from household names in the electronic and house sphere such as Hyenah, Just Her and BOg in the UK and Hector Romero in the US. The track aims to be an exploration of one’s journey, telling its listeners that ‘everyone is a child of something.’ From DREAS’ humble beginnings to his international recognition, he wants the listeners to understand that behind every individual, there is a story. The track is subtle, yet strong and includes just the right amount of percussion, and a good deal of sounds, all the while maintaining the electro feel of the song.
“Each person is the product of their environment, their experiences, and the lessons that they have learned, and through this track, the listener will be able to rectify what they’ve gone through in life.”
