London’s Farah Nanji, AKA N1NJA is something special. She builds her hypnotic soundscapes using samples of ethnic instruments collected from across the globe, weaving them into a bespoke tapestry guaranteed to garner your intrigue. On 25th July, N1NJA brings you her sensational new single, The Vibe, available on Mobilee.
DJ MAG call N1NJA a “mega-talented, fast-rising star”. With impressive supporters such as John Digweed, Sasha, and Laurent Garnier, and packed dancefloors at revered clubs such as Pacha Destino, Space Miami, and the Steelyard, it is impossible to disagree.
Press ‘Play’ on The Vibe. As soon as you hear the booming bass kick and tribal rhythm, you’ll agree that The Vibe is a perfect title. Yet there’s more to come. An intricate clap rhythm pricks up your ears, just in time for Mr V’s hypnotic, mesmerising vocal.
“Imagine stepping into a world where the only thing that matters is the here…and now.” Dreamy, melodic synths kick in and you realise that you don’t even have to imagine. You’re there already.
“It doesn’t require you to follow a specific path… it moves… with you”.
And as if by magic, you find that you’re already moving. The synergy between N1NJA’s production perfection and the punctual profundity of Mr V’s lyrics keep you spellbound until the end.
N1NJA’s third release on the uber cool, prestigious Mobilee label, The Vibe completes a trilogy along with 2023’s sublime A Frequency Illusion’ EP and 2024’s A Perfect Storm’ EP.
N1NJA tells us more: “With The Vibe, Mr. V and I invite you to push back against the age of constant documentation on the dance floor. House music has always been about the moment, and we made this as a statement of intent – an invitation for DJs, dreamers, and dancers to protect the purity of the dancefloor, where presence matters more than proof.”
And on her collaborator, Mr V: “A true pioneer of spoken word in house music, Mr V brings his signature depth and authenticity, elevating the track with a timeless quality that resonates well beyond the dancefloor.”
There appears to be no end to N1NJA’s talents. She’s the host of No.1 Podcast Mission Makers. She’s the curation manager for International Music Summit. Not to mention a former career as a racing driver, that’s a story for another day. This intelligent, talented woman has more strings to her bow than a harp. Most importantly for you right now, she has The Vibe. Out on Mobilee on 25th July.
