Boris Métraux's new single, "Nena," is a beautiful, organic approach to music and vibe. Made from the heart of a jungle, the gorgeous, verdant jungles of Playa Venao in Panama, it sounds like a spirited conversation between a person and nature, raw, pure, and teeming with life. "Nena" is not just a dance track; it's a voyage through emotion, culture, and healing. Whether you're a longtime Afro house aficionado or new to the genre, Boris Métraux offers a sound that feels deeply personal while universally affecting.
You want to dance to this magical blend of Afro-house rhythms, tribal percussion, and atmospheric synths from the first beat, "Nena," as it lures you in and doesn't let go. It's evident that Boris didn't create this song; he used his life to live through it, tapping into a moment of strong medicine, an act of resilience, with every note. The natural textures underlying the track are far from over-produced electronic beats and welcome us into a warm, grounded world.
What makes 'Nena' really special, though, is the soulful vocal delivery, which is both fragile and strong as it weaves through the percussive textures like a campfire story. The vocals, acting as a totem of strength, echo the record's underlying theme of resilience and emotional rebirth. There's a hypnotic element at play here, a pulse that vibrates beneath the surface and makes you want to get lost in its rhythm.
"Nena" is a song that beckons for connection, healing, and dance. Boris Métraux's music is a timely reminder that the heart of electronic music can only beat strongest when it's grounded in real emotion and stories. So, with humble thanks and gratitude, we invite you to Jungle Jim with the rhythms of "Nena" and let the spirit take you.
