Mounika. Returns this year with a new project on a base he particularly likes, that of electro chill.  Discreet by nature and himself surprised by this craze, Mounika. Responds to himself by naming this new opus I Need Space, as a nod to his previous album How Are You. Listening to these 9 tracks, a dialogue is established between the artist and his inner self.   With there being no better way than to start at the beginning, 'Intro (I'm Sorry)' is a two and a half minute album foreword naturally aligning itself to infinite visual possibilities. For the first time, Mounika. #distances himself from his usual creative process: the art of sampling. In Intro (I m sorry), it is himself who composes the piano melody and lays his voice on it, then inspired by a track by Chilly Gonzales.   Mounika. #is seduced by this new way of composing and will even end up sticking to it for all the tracks on I. Need Space, giving this project a very special flavour.  All except the track Tender Love. The day after the discovery of Ocie Elliott's track I Got You, Honey, he offered to re-release it. After a few reworked samples of which only Mounika knows the secret, Tender Love became one of the strong tracks of the I Need Space project.   Like a humble celebration in Mounika's own style, this dreamlike odyssey that is I Need Space ends smoothly on Roadsky and Soft You, with a tempo flirting with deep house. He then sees in I Need Space a transition project towards other musical possibilities.   This Opus is a nostalgic, introspective and intense journey, taking us on a memory stroll, between happy memories and unfinished dreams...   In one image, Mounika's musical universe would be a rainy cloud which, between two rain showers, let's a summer sun shine through. Intro (I'm Sorry), Obli, Tender Love, 25H12, Ailleurs, Deep Water, Feeling Good, Roadsky, Soft You
