Brilliant Belgian producer Nico Morano unwraps his heartfelt new single, ‘Brand New Day,’ a collaboration with singer-songwriter Coco, out on his personal imprint, Ontourage Music.

‘Brand New Day’ offers stirring afrotech vibes evoking feelings of hope through Coco’s angelic vocals and delicate piano flourishes. Her soulful voice floats effortlessly as Nico crafts emotion with every note. The track beautifully follows October’s ‘Sun Sun Sun,’ another vibrant celebration of light, warmth, and positivity.

‘Brand New Day’ follows a pivotal year for Morano. Tracks like ‘JUNO LOVE’ & Gorje Hewek’s remix of his track ‘EVERYTHING I OWN’ received regular support from leading trio Keinemusik (Rampa, Adam Port, &Me). In July, Nico performed some of his unreleased tracks in front of 15,000 ravers at Tomorrowland.

Nico Morano has been a fixture in the melodic house scene for over two decades, known for his signature sound that fuses harmonic melodies with organic, progressive tones, enriched by touches of Italo and deep house influences. He’s a regular at festivals like Tomorrowland and Paradise City, where he hosts his ‘Nico Morano & Friends’ stage. In 2018 & 2019, he achieved his first big international successes with ‘Desire’ & ‘Solaris’ on Eelke Kleijn’s label, amassing millions of streams. His 2023 debut album, ‘Opposite Minds’, received critical acclaim and was performed in a hybrid live show featuring live instrumentation and vocalist and regular collaborator Mewhy.

This week, we warmly welcome him to the Select Cuts series with breathtaking beats that showcase his signature, enchanting energy. Enjoy!
