Sirens by Ripperton & Joy Frempong

Pioneering Swiss DJ and electronic music producer Ripperton joins forces with Berlin-based singer, composer, and passionate aural storyteller Joy Frempong (OY) to create a beautiful and deeply moving piece of electronic music. And after three years in the making, "Sirens" finally emerges. The roots of this collaboration, however, reach back more than a decade.

Around 2010, Ripperton first encountered Joy's first album with Oy after hearing it on Swiss national radio Couleur 3. Shortly after, he saw her playing live - a moment he describes as pure magic. So inspired, Ripperton approached her label with a request to remix her music. The label agreed, and in exchange, Joy promised to feature on one of his future productions. What began as a mutual artistic gesture quietly planted a seed, and eventually, about 15 years later, that seed has fully grown.

“Sirens” began as one of Ripperton's nocturnal modular jams - exploring and playing around with pulsating sequences, pure analog sound textures, and fluid, hypnotic structures. The track was then elevated to an entirely new level by Joy Frempong's deep, evocative lyrics and her celestial voice, transforming the song into something haunting and profoundly human.

The song also grew on a shared work ethos rooted in patience, trust, and refinement. A slow process, shaped by intuition and feeling rather than pressure. Listening over noise. The result is an emotionally charged composition that blurs the line between inner reflection and collective awareness - a sonic response to the sirens of our time.
