Two-time platinum artist and style icon, Monika will release Secret In The Dark worldwide today, October 2 via Other Music Recording Co. A distinctly New York album with a breezy Mediterranean heart, her latest triumph is a cunningly crafted record that fuses 80s art-pop with classic disco tones.

Monika discussed her Greek roots and revealed title track "Secret In The Dark" with The New York Times recently and today she is thrilled to share cinematic album cut "Babyboy". Lush string arrangements paired with a syncopated bass line create an air of mystery on this disco-noir extravaganza. "Babyboy" premiered with ClashMusic today. We encourage you to post and share.

Amassing a dream-team of musicians, Homer Steinweiss, Thomas Brenneck, Nick Movshon, Victor Axelrod, Leon Michels, and others from the Brooklyn scene join Monika on Secret In The Dark. Recorded at the Daptone-renowned Dunham Sounds Studios (Sharon Jones, Charles Bradley, Dan Auerbach) and produced by Dap-Kings & Menahan Street Band founding member Homer Steinweiss, the album breathes generational genre-spanning influences.
