Discography
All Songs
Seven singles in three languages, released between 2020 and 2026 — as SANI in English and Spanish, and since 2026 as BALADI in German. Newest first.
The second release of 2023: a pop song about the right to keep dreaming, even when circumstances argue against it.
Released: 8 September 2023 · Length: 3:01 · As SANI
What you send out comes back. Pop with a Latin edge and a clear stance in the chorus.
Released: 26 May 2023 · Length: 2:39 · As SANI
Sani's Spanish-language side. A song built like a labyrinth: you only find the way out once you stop looking for it.
Released: 19 August 2022 · Length: 2:39 · As SANI
The song that made it into rotation on NDR 2 and MTV. Warm, light, with the feeling of an oversized sweater on a cold day.
Released: 23 April 2021 · Length: 2:57 · As SANI
A path through the thicket: the darkest of the early releases, and the first where the production sounds entirely like Sani.
Released: 4 December 2020 · Length: 3:07 · As SANI
Where it started. The 2020 debut single is still the most-streamed track and the reason many people came across him in the first place.
Released: 19 March 2020 · Length: 3:31 · As SANI
Context
Six Years in Seven Songs
2020 – starting out in English
“2 Glasses” arrives in March 2020 and is still the most-played track. “Jungle Of Despair” follows in December — darker, more densely produced. Both are written between Santa Monica College and the move to London.
2021–2023 – reach, and a second language
“Oversized Sweater” goes into rotation on NDR 2 and MTV in 2021. “Laberinto” brings the first Spanish-language release in 2022, with “Boomerang” and “Dreamer” following in 2023. From here on, three languages are the working method rather than the exception.
Since 2026 – BALADI in German
“10. Stock” opens a German-language chapter under a new artist name in May 2026. Less production, more lyric: a piano ballad that lives on what it leaves out. Film scoring continues alongside it.
