Luna Paige celebrates the release of two new full-length albums “Dis die Dors” and “Harmony.”

 

Popular singer-songwriter Luna Paige decided earlier this year that she would like to release two full length albums, one in Afrikaans and one in English, and to make it all come together, the releases had to be ready on the same day. Two singles, respectively from the two albums, were released in anticipation of the albums earlier in April, titled “Dis die dors” and “Rather be alone than alone in love.”

Dis die dors” is Luna’s second Afrikaans solo album. Paige chose the single track “Dis die dors” as the title track for the album because she believes this song captures the essence of the album.

“Harmony is Luna’s fifth English solo album. “Harmony” was chosen as the title track for the album because the song in turn captures the English album in its entirety. “Harmony” is based on the philosophies of Plato and Heraclitus, and plays with the theme of opposites: light, dark, good, bad, wholeness and brokenness.

Luna says about the motivation of releasing two albums: “After somewhat of a hiatus, I have accumulated quite a few songs – in my mother tongue Afrikaans and in English. After an introspective period during the pandemic, and a lot of unavoidable observations due to global events and the explosion of the digital era – I have found the songs vary between more intimate and introspective themes about man vs nature; but also, more provocative themes addressing the dualistic nature of the self in relation to others. The Afrikaans album seems to lean towards the more introspective, whilst the English album has a bolder onslaught (thematically and musically) – which is quite exciting to me. As I am planning to travel abroad for the remainder of the year, I thought it fitting to leave my fans with enough material to chew on, until I come back with a travel bag full of new songs!”

The music? An eclectic combination of musical influences from multiple genres such as folk, pop, blues, world music, ska/reggae, gypsy music and rock.
