Rose Robinson AKA Tigerbalm takes another step towards the release of her hotly anticipated sophomore album, Bubblegum Discos, via the release of a second teaser single – the sun-soaked tropical nu-disco fusion of ‘Pura Vida’, featuring London-based singer-songwriter (and sometime Afriquoi performer) Andre Espeut.

Bubblegum Discos, which is set for release in the spring of 2026, sees Robinson further develop her trademark kaleidoscopic global fusion sound – a colourful and vibrant mixture of synth-powered disco and boogie sounds combined with rhythms and instrumentation shot through with references to musical cultures and movements from Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and Central and South America. Expressly inspired by Robinson’s desire to showcase her love for Afro-Latin disco, the album boasts contributions from an eye-catching range of collaborators and guest vocalists.

Alongside her original mix and instrumental, we’re treated to a pair of club-ready remixes by Razor ‘N’ Tape co-founder and sometime Escort member JKriv. Nailing the brief, the Brooklyn-based producer reaches for a tougher, percussion-laden Afro-disco rhythm onto which he adds choice elements of Robinson’s original production, from ear-catching synth flashes and undulating organ motifs, to glistening tropical disco guitars and infectious bassline. Infectious, summery, and celebratory, JKriv’s mix is presented in both full vocal and instrumental forms.
