Reginald Omas Mamode IV - Rivière Noire (Album)

 

Rivière Noire is Reginald Omas Mamode IV’s first album on Melting Pot Music, and his first solo project since 2022. Out now on digital, vinyl follows 29th August.

In his music Reginald attempts to evoke feelings of universal Love and compassion. It draws influence from the current state of the world as much as it does from everyday life. As we witness rising poverty, global events, political and ethnic divisions – these factors prompt some of Reginald’s themes and call for humanity to recognise we are all interconnected.

We are all related. We're all brothers and sisters with common ancestry, common history and a common origin regardless of race, geographic location or belief systems. Love and compassion are universal feelings/practices we all should embrace and apply to all aspects of our lives, our interactions and our relationships, regardless of the kinship”. – Reginald

Rivière Noire is somewhat of a rebirth or an evolution for Reginald. The album sees him take a step back from sampling records, rather performing all the instrument and vocal parts himself. He creates his sounds and grooves with a vast array of instruments, performed, recorded and mixed in his modest studio. Live drums, drum machines, various percussion instruments, guitar, Fender Rhodes and synths.
