Noebel adopted the name Walilamdzi from <a href="spotify:artist:1YZEoYFXx4AxVv13OiOPvZ" data-name="Devendra Banhart">Devendra Banhart</a>’s song of the same title. In the Pit River dialect, it is believed to mean &#34;the dawn&#34;. Whether rooted in indigenous language or existing purely as a phonetic creation, it captures a feeling more than a definition, carrying an undercurrent of menace. Captivated by its rhythm and mystery, Noebel has used Walilamdzi as the name for his musical explorations over the years, which eventually grew into the official project - creating music that immerses listeners in textured, atmospheric soundscapes.

For those who seek cinematic soundscapes, the glow before nightfall and the moments where night meets day, Walilamdzi offers a compelling journey. Explore its world in the playlist &#34;<a href="spotify:playlist:3ls8WsBX9tRFp0irlXEaFw" data-name="The Wasteland">The Wasteland</a>&#34;.
