Week

End

The name Ian Mugerwa aka Dawuna has spread through the grapevine since the release of his debut album. Fortunately the internet is fertile ground for such word-of-mouth propaganda, so news of “Glass Lit Dream”’s charismatic take on R&B got round quicker than talk of the next hip restaurant. Two years later the world could finally get its hands on a record, which secured even more new fans. Ever since, critics have agreed: this is someone who is really venturing into new territories. Dawuna sings super intimately, approachable, in warm embraces, over intricate tracks of collage-like samples, synthetic beats, mysterious synths and multifarious sounds. It booms, drones and stutters—Dawuna is THE great hope for R&B.
