Coco Elane (they/she) & Lucy aka Lucid Liebe (she/her) blend queer, spaced-out R&B with a touch of jazz and kitsch. Safe Space is their new single, following Nothing To Lose.
Lucy Liebe, a Berlin-based multi-instrumentalist, producer and member of jazz trio Bokoya, crafted evocative, dynamic arrangements around Coco’s haunting vocals and viola recordings. Together, they create genre-fluid, soulful soundscapes that feel raw, intimate, and transformative.
Coco describes the track as a reflection on instant chemistry and the tension between desire and hesitation. "It’s about feeling an undeniable connection but holding back because of insecurity or uncertainty," they explain.
For Lucid, the song’s creation was a journey of persistence. "By version six, Coco thought it was done, but I wasn't convinced," she shares. "I replaced the digital drums with live recordings and kept refining until version thirteen—that's when it finally clicked."
Their EP Wander With Me drops Thursday March 27th.
Bern-based artist Coco Elane has put out a joint EP with Leipzig producer upper class and released various singles for urbanundergrounds and Hutzpah Records. Her debut album is set to come out in late 2025.
Lucy Liebe has released three albums with Bokoya for MPM and a solo project titled Looong Epeee. As part of douniah’s live band, she has performed extensively across Germany and the UK.
