OKMALUMKOOLKAT x GQI ft. AMADANDO

Okmalumkoolkat’s vocals over Rudeboyz production works so well and the video is a feast of party goodness, what’s not to like?

Rudeboyz x Get Down

Taken from the Goon Club Allstars latest release. Seriously shout out those guys for giving a damn and releasing this without any western colonial appropriation stuff. We went to Future Sounds of Mazansi premiere last year with Moleskin and the homie was genuinely hype seeing Durban guys on screen.

From our short time in SA, we realised that we are entirely ignorant of the diversity of the SA house scene. Gqom is akin to bassline/niche in the sense that it is from one region. And it’s genesis comes from the raves there and the people. This may seem really basic but the vastness of SA means that the music feels like it truly is from this specific moment in time.

Casper Nyovest x Ghetto (Feat. DJ Drama & Anatii)


Still bumps, Still great and great to see DJ Drama actually in the video as well. There has been a lot of talk about what constitutes a good look these days, this definitely is one.

Gino Brown x Show the Mercy (Feat. Pinky Jay)


Sorry for being MIA we went on break for a while before going to South Africa for a while. Expect a lot of Sa based content in the coming weeks but the 1 track we were desperate to post about was this one. Sa and Nigeria team up on this house jam. Shout out to my Bro for spotting this one.

Jeremih x Don’t Tell Em Afro-Remix


This isn’t as good as it could be but its official. Let that sink in for a sec…. One of our fave R and B artists (when he isnt being shoved into edm festival type stuff) got 3 of Africa’s finest to be on a comissioned remix.
