Arc De Soleil announces his debut album, Lumin Rain, due June 27th, 2025 via Maison Arts. Alongside the announcement, he shares his second offering, “Dunes of Djoser.” Like the previously released “Sunchaser,” “Dunes of Djoser” draws inspiration from a transformative trip to Egypt. While “Sunchaser” explores the awe-inspiring spiritual power of the sun, reminiscent of the reverence ancient Egyptians had for Ra, “Dunes of Djoser” invites listeners into a space where the boundaries of time blur.
Reflecting on his experience, Daniel shares, “I tried to write about an experience I had while in the Saqqara desert, visiting the ancient Djoser Pyramid. Somehow the place made me feel connected to the past and present at the same time… like stepping into a realm where time was perceived differently.”
The project of Swedish visionary Daniel Kadawatha, who single-handedly controls every element of his music – writing, performing all instrumentation, producing, and mixing each of his tracks – Arc De Soleil combines elements of funk, rock, psychedelia, and world music to create a sound that is both nostalgic and contemporary.
Since 2019, when Kadawatha first released music under the Arc De Soleil moniker, the project has been a hidden gem for music heads while racking up over 250 million streams on Spotify alone.
