London-born, Dubai-based producer David Ramano continues his momentum in 2026 with the release of his latest project, Time Loop EP, arriving via his own imprint, Omkara. The three-track offering marks a deeper and more conceptual step in his journey through Afro and Melodic House, signaling a new phase in his artistic evolution.
At its core, Time Loop EP explores the cycles we find ourselves in—both musically and personally—while pointing toward the awareness needed to move beyond them. Each track unfolds as part of a wider narrative, transitioning from hypnotic rhythm into introspection and ultimately, resolution.
The opening title track, “Time Loop,” sets the tone with a deep, immersive instrumental driven by rolling Afro House percussion and subtle, evolving textures. Designed with the dancefloor in mind, it emphasizes presence over traditional progression, pulling listeners into a steady, meditative groove. From there, the EP shifts into “Lost In The Waves,” a vocal-led cut that introduces a more emotive layer, exploring themes of surrender and trust through its fluid, atmospheric arrangement. Closing the project, “Never Look Back” delivers a sense of clarity and forward motion, pairing uplifting production with a vocal that captures quiet strength and the resolve to move beyond the past.
The release arrives during one of David Ramano’s most prolific periods to date, with a growing catalog spanning labels such as Enormous Tunes, Where The Heart Is, Vamos Music, Vamos Music Talents, Ostowana, Xpressed Records, and Open Bar Music, alongside his own Omkara platform. This steady stream of releases reflects his growing presence within the global Afro and Melodic House scene and a consistent commitment to rhythm-driven, emotionally resonant electronic music.
Raised within London’s rich and diverse musical landscape, David Ramano draws from a foundation shaped by soulful harmonies, underground dance culture, and the legacy of the 1990s pirate radio era. His journey has taken him across international stages in the UK, Spain, Sweden, and Canada, while his work as one half of Deepologists helped refine a sound rooted in both physical movement and emotional connection.
His productions continue to receive support from globally respected artists including Damian Lazarus, Themba, CamelPhat, Shimza, ARTBAT, Cosmic Gate, and Don Diablo. His track “Fall” remains a standout in his catalog, blending Afro-inspired percussion with emotive melodies while surpassing 380,000 streams and earning placement across key Spotify Afro House playlists. Across platforms, his music has now exceeded 850,000 streams, reaching audiences in clubs, festivals, and radio shows worldwide.
As a label, Omkara serves as more than just a release outlet—it acts as a creative hub for forward-thinking Afro and Melodic House. Rooted in innovation and emotional depth, the imprint bridges traditional influences from African, Latin, and Eastern musical heritage with modern electronic production.
With Time Loop EP, David Ramano continues to refine his artistic voice, delivering a cohesive body of work grounded in rhythm, storytelling, and introspection. Early support from names like Damian Lazarus and Themba further signals the project’s resonance, positioning it as another meaningful step forward within the evolving global Afro and Melodic House landscape.
