Fudge is Michael Kiwanuka’s most free and instinctive album to date. A vibrant, deeply human record shaped by spontaneity, emotion, and creative joy. It’s loose, soulful, and alive with the kind of magic that only happens when the process leads the way. The album was inspired by the encouraging words of the late Chick Corea, whose interview Michael stumbled upon during the pandemic lockdown, urging him to embrace what he loved without worrying about what others might think. Each physical edition brings you into that world. The artwork, created by Michael’s friend and visual collaborator Stevie Gee, bursts with color and character. It’s a psychedelic cartoon-inspired piece that perfectly mirrors the album’s warmth and wonder.

There are albums you listen to, and there are albums you live with. 'Finally', the forthcoming new record from Catz 'N Dogz, belongs to the latter.Across sixteen tracks, Voitek and Greg have created their most creatively ambitious and emotionally open work to date. An album about relationships, friendship, and the people and places that shape us. At it's heart is a simple idea: music should make you feel something, and sometimes the most meaningful moments are the quiet ones when you finally have time to yourself.Finally is rooted in the emotional contradictions that make memories so powerful. Inspired by classic American Folk and Soul, it's songs are happy and nostalgic; hopeful without pretending that the past doesn't exist. There is melancholy inside the euphoria and warmth inside the sadness, a constant interplay between looking back and moving forward.The album begins with the soulful breakbeat glow of 'We're Gonna Be Alright' featuring Ajii, before moving through the smoky jazz and piano-led intimacy of 'Dance For You' with Miller Blue and the bass-driven energy of 'Sun Goes Down' featuring Charlotte Haining. Closing with the reflective 'Miss You' featuring Mateusz Krautwurst, the record takes in a rich cast of vocalists, musicians and producers, alongside a series of deeply personal Catz 'N Dogz solo productions.Those collaborations are central to 'Finally'. The album is, in many ways, a celebration of the creative friendships Voitek and Greg have built throughout their journey. Relationships that have allowed them to step outside their comfort zone and rethink what their music can be.Written and recorded between Madrid, New York, Warsaw, and the road, the album finds the duo placing renewed emphasis on songwriting, chord progressions, and musical craft. Rather than simply chasing the next track, they took the time to learn, experiment and create something with a sense of permanence.This is an album for driving without a destination. For watching the sun go down. For remembering somebody you haven't thought about in years. For those rare stretches of time when there is nowhere else you need to be.
