Mollono.Bass is back with a vibe-heavy new chapter in his journey – his fifth studio album Tears & Hope, and it’s easily his most personal and emotional release yet.
This one’s not just for the dancefloor – though it still grooves hard – it’s also for those late-night thoughts, the quiet moments, and the messy in-betweens. From the first beat, the Mollono.Bass new album locks you into a soundscape that’s equal parts melancholic and euphoric, a true reflection of the strange, beautiful chaos that defines our world right now. It’s an album that hits the body and the soul, layering deep basslines with introspective melodies and hypnotic grooves.
What makes Tears & Hope really stand out is how it leans into duality. Mollono.Bass plays with contrast – light and dark, joy and sadness, energy and stillness – and somehow weaves it all into a cohesive story that’s as emotionally raw as it is rhythmically smooth. There’s a lot of range in here, from club-ready beats to slow-burning, soul-touching moments. You’ll feel it whether you’re in a crowd or completely alone with your headphones on.
The collaborations throughout the record are killer. MAZ’N shows up more than once, helping to craft moments that are equal parts bold and introspective. One of those tracks also features the haunting voice of Margret, which gives the record an emotional depth that lingers. Andy’s Echo joins in too, and the result is a pulsating cut full of synergy and late-night warmth. Together, these collabs bring a sense of community to an album that already feels deeply human.
Mollono.Bass blends organic harmonies with precise electronic layers, creating something that feels alive. There’s a natural ebb and flow – like breathing – that keeps you locked in from start to finish. The whole project captures a moment in time, one where everything feels fragile but also full of possibility. Whether you’re dancing in a field or reflecting on your own, Tears & Hope is the soundtrack you didn’t know you needed.
And this is just the beginning. Mollono.Bass is planning a special live show to bring the album to life on stage, promising a fully immersive experience. If this record is any hint, it’s going to be something special. Tears & Hope is more than music – t’s a mood, a message, and a moment we’re all part of.
