Shungu - Faith in the Unknown - CASSETTES

I've always dreamed of making an album where I could bring together artists I deeply admire, curating voices, energies, and sensibilities that have inspired me, says Brussels-born producer and multidisciplinary artist ShunGu of his new record, Faith in the Unknown. InchIt took time, and it grew into something very human, rooted in trust, patience, and creative risk. These songs are conversations, not just between me and the artists, but between worlds, eras, and ways of feeling.InchThat spirit of dialogue and discovery is what defines Faith in the Unknown.

It's a leap into uncertainty, carried by trust in the process and the people involved.From the lo-fi beat tapes that first won him a cult following, to collaborations that span the globe, Shungu has forged a body of work rooted in exploration and community. Faith in the Unknown crystallises those qualities into his most ambitious statement yet - a record that doesn't just blur boundaries betwee
