Folamour is one of the most interesting international underground DJs. On one hand, you have his epic live sets. Combining areas of hip hop, house music, disco and classic pop hits, he delivers a poignantly positive energy and aura, with a very clear deliberate ethos of making people smile. On the other hand, Folamour is a singer, songwriter and producer. He recently released his third incredible body of work, 'The Journey' cementing his sonic class beyond that of just a touring DJ.

Since the beginning of last year Folamour drip fed audiences singles from the record. Each and everyone came with more and more praise, and the album lived up to its hype. The Journey is a 12 track package of incredibly vibrant and complex production mastery. He moves away from his sample and loop driven focus of his previous work, tapping heavily into his vocals, lyrics and recordings of native instruments. Showcasing this most is the personal tale that is Resonate. The track positions the rest of the record as one with full of substance, brimming with joys and trials through its direct lyrical messaging and sonic queues.

Folamour made the record on the side of touring in 2019, and perfected it during 2020s lockdown. During the 2019 period, he performed over 140 shows. His last visiting location before COVID-19 swept the globe was Australia, headlining Pitch Festival and hitting local clubs across the country. It was during this touring period Folamour solidified himself as one of the best selectors in the globe. No moment is more evidence of this than his iconic, 2019 Boiler Room set, which saw the world go crazy with his spin of ABBA's classic 'Gimme Gimme Gimme'.
