Be.lanuit is a prolific producer, artist, fashion designer and arguably Ibiza’s hardest working DJ.
On this EP he has worked hand in hand with two Spanish artists and a Mediterranean folklore and jazz band.
Namibian Scents is a production made with the talented Jorge Quesada (Bjorkey), composer, pianist and leader of the band Ombra. It is inspired by the sound of traditional music from Namibia. Jorge composed, sang and played the pianos and rhythms.
Synths and production was made under the vision of Be.lanuit inspired by his home base, Eivissa, where the connection with ancestral cultures who lived there merge with the future.
Hixa Mia is a traditional Sephardic folk song included on Posidonian Poetry, Ombra’s first album. Ombra is the project of Jorge Quesada who works with a big community of musicians from different countries of the Mediterranean Sea who have a knowledge on jazz and folklore music. Jorge sent Be.lanuit the stems with all the instruments (double bass, sax, piano, drums and percussion) and he re-touched the song taking it to another dimension.
Nebulosa was composed and produced by Be.lanuit. The original idea was for the track to be instrumental, but then he met Inana and they clicked immediately. After the first listen to the track, Inana composed the lyrics and the vocal melody.

Lyrics written and composed by Inana
Intoxicating euphoric ethereal psychedelic soul at it’s very best … and I do mean intoxicating, as the adventure never rises above heartbeat level, locked into a slow-paced groove bewitched by R&B inspirations from the late 60s and early 70’s that reach out of the darkness with an easy going vibe of love, joy and happiness.
