Somewhere Soul - Somewhere Soul Rituals, Vol. 02 (2026) [Hi-Res]

Somewhere Soul founder Josh Mason-Quinn has teamed up with Mr Bongo to present the second volume of his Rituals compilation series, bringing together exclusive tracks from emerging artists and underground innovators worldwide. Conceived as a human-curated counterweight to context-free streaming algorithms and the surge of AI-generated music, the collection champions thoughtful discovery and the enduring value of human-made artistry.

Structured as a 24-hour sonic journey across four distinct sides, the compilation mirrors the shifting moods of a full day. The morning "Rise" side opens with tranquil ambient folk and meditative pieces by Naïssam Jalal, Blue Lake, and Tiago Caetano, before the daytime "Radiate" side builds momentum with Mediterranean jazz funk, boogie, UK jazz fusion, and Afro-Latin grooves from Gianni Brezzo, João Selva, Fr1th & Simon Jefferis, Konkolo Orchestra, and Ireke.

As dusk falls, the "Retreat" side eases into twilight warmth featuring string arrangements by Miguel Atwood-Ferguson for Kennebec and Tristan de Liège, harpist Rachel Kitchlew, and soul-jazz cuts from Mikoudi, China Bowls, and Gentle Nature. Closing the journey, the "Release" side ignites the dancefloor with Turkish city pop by Peki Momés, tropical disco from Daniel Monaco, deep house by Alexander Flood, and an anthemic breakbeat street soul finale from Landing Eagles, the new project by Reuben Vaun Smith (Sons of Sevilla).
