Happy New Year Everyone! 🐉Just before last year ended I released IYO IYE my new single on all platforms. https://sng.to/theallegorist/iyo-iye

It’s from my archive, and I wrote, produced, performed, and mixed it as always and this time it wasn’t mastered, just easy from my hard drive to your ears. A simple approach in a complicated world.

I made the first version in 2020 Berlin, during the lockdown. It didn’t find a place in my albums, but I couldn’t forget about it, as every now and then, it would ask me to release it. I shot the cover the same year during my short trip to Sicily. I didn’t expect to stumble upon an epic cave and wasn’t prepared. But of course, I had to take the opportunity for a photo shoot in my summer dress nevertheless. The lyrics are in my fictional language Mondoneoh, which works in the way, that I just speak whatever feels right.
