Our Take

In a world filled with auto-tuned pop stars and cookie-cutter beats, Hailu Mergia is a breath of fresh air. His latest album, "Yene Mirchain," is a captivating journey through the realms of Ethiopian jazz and funk, mixing traditional melodies with modern production techniques.

From the moment the needle hits the vinyl, you are transported to a dimly lit jazz club in Addis Ababa, where the music flows like honey and the drinks never stop coming. Mergia's mastery of the accordion is on full display here, weaving intricate melodies that draw you in and refuse to let go.

The standout track "Abichu Nega Nega" is a funky, Afrobeat-infused gem that will have you grooving in your seat from start to finish. It's impossible not to feel the infectious energy of this song, as Mergia's accordion dances playfully over the driving rhythm section.

But it's not all high-energy jams on "Yene Mirchain." Tracks like "Shemendefer" and "Tizita" showcase Mergia's more contemplative side, with hauntingly beautiful melodies that linger in the air long after the music has stopped.

Overall, "Yene Mirchain" is a triumph for Hailu Mergia, solidifying his status as a true master of his craft. So grab a glass of tej, sit back, and let the music take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Trust us, you won't regret it.
