Why do we like this?

I'm giving this one to the organic house genre, and yes, the genre is made all the better for it. What a track!

With "Engolo," Fonosaur perfectly fuses an African-inspired vocal track with a style of house that's replete with all the bells and whistles — funk, hip-hop, electronic, and organic sounds are weaved into the soundscape.

This UK artist knows how to blend sounds from different places into a distinct fusion. His debut EP entitled Traversal will be independently released on May 20th 2022.

By Dylan Heneck on Aug 2, 2016 | Today was the first time I thought to actually look up who Mikael Seifu is, because let's be honest, his music deserves more than just my usual, sarcastic write-up. Interestingly enough, Addis Ababa is where he hails from, and in case you don't know ... read more →

By Dylan Heneck on Sep 11, 2015 | Nope, I don't know what this track means either. It's pretty damn good, though. One half of up-and-coming rap group Bean n Pasco, Bean has joined forces with synth-house man Andy Islands. "Ngizohlala Nginje" is a joyous union of two very different ... read more →
