"With imagination, everything is possible." - Jowee Omicil (https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/artist/0uLoiIx5FHquutLKMM93bY?si=Qkwl8QOOTRWg7_zu1Ne0-g) believes this deeply — it’s a philosophy that guides his music and his journey. In this tri-lingual podcast—in English, French, and Haitian Creole—he travels from Ghana to Haiti, carried by the rhythms of the unseen. Though he has never set foot there, the music, the ancestors, and the spirit of the land pull him in. The imaginary knows no limits — melodies become bridges, time dissolves, and new realities unfold. Rooted in Trip to Ghana (https://modulor.lnk.to/TripToGhana) , this episode reflects on the deep connection between Haiti and Ghana—two nations bonded by their fight for freedom. Featuring Mawuena Kodjovi on multiple instruments, the track blends African heritage with Jowee’s creative soul. Like Miles Davis in his later years, Jowee transcends boundaries, turning history into a powerful, joyful testament to resilience. As part of sMiLes, it embodies the album’s essence: finding joy and unity in the face of injustice. Let yourself be guided by the sound — beyond borders, beyond time, into the infinite. • Listen to Jowee Omicil here!

In this episode, Jowee Omicil takes us on a journey through the heart of his latest track, SOeuR FeLiX aka BeeHive (https://modulor.lnk.to/SoeurFelix) —a golden drop of musical honey straight from Haiti. With its irresistible kompa groove and uplifting energy, the song is more than just a rhythm; it’s a story. Jowee shares the inspiration behind the track, recalling childhood memories of an old woman at his father’s church whose humming was as powerful as it was playful. Her call of “Attention!” to the kids was a lesson in presence, vigilance, and joy—values that now flow through Jowee’s music. Tune in as The Groove Officer himself breaks down how SOeuR FeLiX captures his philosophy of love, unity, and happiness, offering a taste of what’s to come on his upcoming album, sMiLes. Let the music move you, lift you, and remind you to embrace life with a smile! • Listen to Jowee Omicil here!

"BeaT CoiN aka WaLTz For RH (https://modulor.lnk.to/Beatcoin) " is Jowee Omicil’s homage to Roy Hargrove, whose power transcended all systems. Roy’s presence was so strong, he could beat any coin, outshining material wealth. Featuring Ludovic Louis on trumpet, this track captures the essence of Roy’s spirit—a waltz that channels his vibe, his groove, and the profound inspiration he left behind. It’s like Mingus and Eric Dolphy are out to lunch - free-spirited, bold, and pushing boundaries. This track is another single release from Jowee’s upcoming album sMiLes, a project that celebrates the joy of musical freedom and imperfection. Both the track and the album embody a break from convention, challenging the systems that define value—whether it’s in music, wealth, or life itself. • Listen to Jowee Omicil here!

 Jowee Omicil’s arrangement of Abbey Lincoln’s Throw it Away (https://modulor.lnk.to/ThrowItAway) is a tribute to pure love and also marks the first track of his upcoming album, sMiLes. Inspired by his profound encounter with the legendary “Goddess of Spiritual Sounds” at Blue Note New York, this piece captures the essence of Abbey’s generous spirit. Her words to him—“My son, my stage is your stage, and you are always welcome”—left an indelible mark on his musical journey. Through his golden sax and rhythmic voice, Jowee invites us to release material burdens and embrace love wholeheartedly, echoing Abbey’s timeless message: “Give your love, live your life each and every day.” As for sMiLes, the title reflects a playful spirit, inspired not only by Jowee but also by Miles, whose sometimes “smiling  notes” remind us that beauty lies in imperfection. Jowee embodied this philosophy, celebrating the freedom to let go of perfection and find joy in life’s unpolished moments. After all, true happiness comes from being unapologetically real.
