Dna Arabanko

When it comes to Afrobeat, there is no definite sound. Like all genres, there are subgenres within that make it a whole. With an eclectic mix of urban-driven beats with soulful, jazzy, funky, pop, African and high energy musical sensibilities, the sensational duo, DNA Twins bring a sort of highlife element to the mix on their first project of the year, titled, “Gemini EP”.

This 4-track EP takes listeners on a sonic journey. Their groovy moods and melodious vocals act as the guide as they seamlessly carry audiences from, ‘Kayama‘, a highlife infused serenade to ‘Arabanko‘, an Afropop track with lyrics that interestingly highlights how love isn’t a do or die affair, down to the very last note of ‘Wanting More‘, an afro feel-good lounge music.
