Douniah

Douniah creates art that breaks boundaries. Her sense of aesthetics is reflected in both her music and her visual productions. Her sound reflects Gnawa and African jazz as well as Afro-Cuban music, soul, jazz and hip-hop, and all kinds of poetry. In her work, Douniah illuminates herself and her surroundings with a critical and strong voice. She combines her perspective and observations on identity, culture, belonging and mental health in her lyrics.

Born in Agadir, Morocco, raised in Hamburg and now Berlin-based, the German-Moroccan released her first project "Dream Baby'' in 2019 on Cologne-based label Melting Pot Music together with producer High John. A collaborative album heavily influenced by jazz samples, neo-soul and poetry, it has generated over 2.5 million streams to date. She either produced or co-produced the music videos for the project. This was most recently the case for Ebow's single "Friends'', which was released in summer 2020.

Douniah is also part of the Berlin collective Out Of Time Embassy and worked on the "Are You For Real" project for IFA. She has also made a name for herself as a feature guest on tracks by Farhot, 2Kings, AgaJon and Cap Kendricks. She graced the cover of the Spotify playlist "Butter''. As a pre-act, Douniah played shows with Children of Zeus, FloFilz and accompanied Sudan Archives and
JuJu Rogers & Negroman on tour. Douniah is currently working with Berlin producer Dhanya (Modha, Juju Rogers) on her first solo EP, which will be released on Melting Pot Music in 2022.
