KIARAA’s ‘Feel With Me’ Gets an 80s Dream Makeover by Synthwave Icon Robert Parker

Published

on

KIARAA is back and bolder than ever, bringing her deeply evocative pop gem, “Feel With Me”, into a shimmering new dimension with a remix from Robert Parker, the Swedish maestro of retro synths.

In its original form, “Feel With Me” showcased KIARAA’s knack for creating songs that blend visceral storytelling with undeniable hooks. Now, in the hands of Parker, the track has been reimagined as an 80s fever dream. Pulsating basslines, ethereal synths, and shimmering reverb elevate KIARAA’s soulful vocals, transforming the song into a cinematic masterpiece that could soundtrack a neon-lit night ride or an epic love story.

Parker reflects:
KIARAA’s voice has a rare emotional depth that feels at home in any musical style. It was pure joy to rework her song with my love for retro sounds. I aimed to take the best elements of the 80s and 90s and reframe them in a modern way. This remix is a celebration of nostalgia and innovation.

KIARAA’s story is as inspiring as her music. A self-taught vocalist and pianist, she burst onto the scene at 32, proving it’s never too late to chase your dreams. Within a year, she was headlining sold-out shows, captivating audiences with her bold blend of pop, rock, and soul.

For Robert Parker, music is more than sound; it’s a time machine. A classically trained pianist turned synthwave trailblazer, Parker has spent years perfecting his signature sound: a blend of analog warmth, dreamy melodies, and irresistible grooves. His collaboration with KIARAA is no exception, injecting “Feel With Me” with an infectious energy that bridges the gap between generations of music lovers.

Whether you’re dancing under neon lights or reflecting on life’s twists and turns, the Robert Parker Remix of “Feel With Me” offers the perfect soundtrack. It’s a collision of heart and nostalgia that will leave you hitting repeat again and again.

From 46th to 3rd: Asokwa Municipal Assembly’s Remarkable Rise in Financial Governance

Published

on

A year can make a remarkable difference, and for the Asokwa Municipal Assembly, it has changed everything.

After placing 46th in 2024, the Assembly has surged to an impressive 3rd position in Ghana’s 2025 Public Financial Management Compliance League Table, earning national recognition for its commitment to transparency, accountability and responsible financial management.

The Public Financial Management Compliance League Table, supported by the European Union and coordinated by the Centre for Local Governance Advocacy (CLGA), assesses all 261 Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies across the country. It measures how effectively assemblies manage public funds through budgeting, procurement, revenue generation and financial reporting.

Asokwa’s score of 92.00% placed it among the very best in Ghana, with only Bia East District Assembly and Nkwanta South Municipal Assembly ranking ahead. The performance stands well above the national average of 56.20%, underlining the municipality’s exceptional progress.

Behind this success is a deliberate commitment to strengthening financial discipline. Under the leadership of Municipal Chief Executive Hon. Amoh Kamel, the Assembly has embraced reforms aimed at improving compliance with financial regulations and ensuring greater accountability in the use of public resources.

The national recognition was formally presented during an awards ceremony, where Hon. Gladys G.N. Tetteh, Deputy Executive Director of CLGA, presented the Assembly with an award acknowledging its outstanding performance. The citation commended Asokwa’s efforts in improving public financial management and maintaining compliance throughout the financial management process.

The Assembly’s remarkable improvement demonstrates what focused leadership, teamwork and dedication to good governance can achieve. Rising 43 places within a single year is a significant accomplishment that reflects consistency, careful planning and efficient execution.

Asokwa’s latest achievement not only brings pride to the municipality but also serves as a benchmark for other local assemblies striving to improve governance and accountability.

As the municipality celebrates this milestone, attention now turns to sustaining these standards and pursuing an even greater achievement in the years ahead.
