After playing Sŵn 2025, we couldn’t resist having Tokomololo back at the festival this year. He mixes Welsh-language lyricism with electronics to create a meditative and deeply immersive sound. Hailing from Anglesey, he has taken field recordings from the nearby Eyri Mountains. He even walked up a mountain for the release of his single ‘Deffro’.
A lot of his work is surrounded by the natural environment, which pairs perfectly with the theme of finding comfort in solitude, that you can find throughout his work. His live set is an entrancing mixture of live loops and vocal manipulation, amongst electronic sounds that help you reach a higher plane.
We’re looking forward to a second round of Tokomololo at Sŵn this year, in what’s set to be a deeply engrossing set.
