Parra for Cuva – “Mimose” album
“We spent all in all three wonderful months in Liguria, Italy. Some of the songs were written there, others at home in Berlin, and some on the road. It all started in a garden hut within a little Italian village named Grimaldi- and since then the spirit of this place never left me. I would like to dedicate this album to the beauty of traveling, to friendship and family, to good food and drinks, and of course to the wonderful time we spent in Liguria and that’s why this record is called ‘Mimose.’ Love, Nicolas.” – Parra for Cuva explained
Known for his distinctive sound that blends analog and digital electronic music production with a diverse array of instruments- Parra for Cuva has become synonymous with the spirit of wanderlust. His newest project was produced during his recent travels and is subsequently titled after the German Mimose, a flower that blooms in Italy, where the majority of the tracks were brought to life. The forthcoming sonic journey offers listeners a terrain where Caribbean steel drums harmonize with ancient Zimbabwean instruments over melodic soundscapes, creating a 12-track LP that is sure to inspire listeners from across the globe.
In anticipation of his fifth major album project, “Mimose” delivers an enchanting prelude as to what is yet to come from Parra for Cuva.
