“It’s simply a love song, celebrating that “falling in love” moment and everything that comes along with it – the unravelling of deep feelings, excitement, cravings to experience everything together and just being truly grateful for that special person in your life.”
Lina Nikol
“I was going through my discography and I realized that all my beats were in 4/4 time signature. So I decided to challenge myself and make one in 6/8. It turned out better than I thought, and Lina took it to a whole another level with her beautiful vocals. After remixing her and Boyan’s “Tell Me Is It Worth It” it was super nice to work on an original collab song!”

THE RELEASE
London singer Lina Nikol returns with her 2nd offering out of a streak of singles for 2024.
“We Found Love”, produced by Finnish beatmaker/multi-instrumentalist Misha, is an r&b/neo-soul love letter about the perfect form of romance. Misha remixed Lina Nikol & Boyan’s “Tell Me Is It Worth It” last year, which then sparked their first collaboration. “He sent me a few ideas he had been working on and “We Found Love” was the one that I was immediately drawn to. I made a full demo with a topline and lyrics and that was it. We just loved the idea,” Lina shares.
The slow-burner carries Lina Nikol’s amazing neo-soul vocal runs, pulsating keys (thanks to Jussi Halme), punchy production, and heartbeat-like basslines (played by cocabona).
