The past CD Silent Voice came 2018 and is partly a dedication to Ove Johansson, tenorsax, who was one of the composers and leaders of Mwendo Dawa and who past away 2015. April 11th 2025 there is a new release with Mwendo Dawa trio, Melodic Hope, that celebrates the start of the group 1975, that is 50 years from the start, and there has been a long journey with many musicians involved.

Improvised music where live electronics smoothly integrates with the acoustic instruments. Music that requires concentrated listening, but also music with a great portion of humour and exciting ideas.
