Why do we like this?

Through a combination of a great backstory and some fantastic tunes, South Africa's John Wizards are currently drawing praise from all angles.

One such tune is the relentlessly happy "iYongwe," which Bleep described as "feel-good cinematic funk."

Their eponymous debut album is out now, and you can get a copy here.
