about

Following on from her first two singles - championed by the likes of Crack Magazine, Jamz Supernova, Shanti Celeste, Gilles Peterson and many more - Marla Kether shares ‘In My Corner’, featuring afrofuturist and vocalist K.O.G (Kweku of Ghana). The track continues to showcase her remarkable ability to seamlessly blend diverse musical genres and influences into her music; drawing from her unique and extensive experience in Afrobeat, Global House, and Congolese Soukous, on ‘In My Corner’ she creates a lively and mesmerising fusion that transcends cultural boundaries.

A heavy Dembow groove, layered live Latin percussion, legato Moog bass synth and a syncopated bass guitar provide the backbone of this dancefloor gem. The ecstatic vocal expressions and fluttering adlibs of K.O.G are woven between bouncy Soukous guitar riffs reminiscent of Kanda Bongo Man, all while an infectious clapping clavé rhythm steers the track ahead. Marla's music represents a meeting point for different regions, diasporas, and musical traditions, showcasing a deep understanding and connection to these diverse styles that have influenced Marla through her own connections.
