Skinniez - Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck
Skinniez - Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck
Sounds like: Taylor McFerrin, Samiyam, Melodiesinfonie
By Dylan Heneck on Apr 17, 2016 | I'm going to refrain from a funny review in lieu of the death of Skinniez's cat, Skeldwin. No one wants to see a furry feline companion go, but luckily it was not in vain -- aka, I give you this track. It's about as good a boom-bap track as you're g... read more →

HAULA - Freedom
HAULA - Freedom
Sounds like: Adesuwa, Oyinda, Jones, Petite Noir, Sorceress, Ink Project
By Donna Arendse on Feb 19, 2016 | While we're on that female buzz, I'd love to introduce the empowering second single from Haula. After her seductive debut "Darkest Hour" last year, the Ugandan born, UK based singer/songwriter has started 2016 off with a strong follow-up. "Freedom" ... read more →

Batuk - Daniel
Batuk - Daniel
Sounds like: Spoek Mathambo, Okmalumkoolkat
By Chaze Matakala on Jan 29, 2016 | A transcendence of cultures procreating within an infectious tribal house rhythm is manifested in the music collective Batuk. The single "Daniel" is the rambunctious lovechild.  While Spoek Mathambo and Aero Manyelo are solid artists in the South Af... read more →

Daniel Haaksman - Rename the Streets
Daniel Haaksman - Rename the Streets
Sounds like: Aero Manyelo, Midland, DJ Spoko
By Dylan Heneck on Jan 28, 2016 | I'm sure you've also heard of Daniel Haaksman as well, so I don't need to go on about how unreal his music is. There's no way you haven't already found this EP, or his other music. It's also pretty clear that you love it so much that in order to pro... read more →

Jumping Back Slash - THE LIGHTS
Jumping Back Slash - THE LIGHTS
Sounds like: DJ Spoko, Maramza
By Dylan Heneck on Sep 15, 2015 | I'm sick of Jumping Back Slash making good music. JBS, if you're listening, give us some some tropical house, try putting out at least four remixes of The xx, or go on tour with Kygo if you have to. Just like certain websites give you a Captcha to pr... read more →

Andy Islands - Ngizohlala Nginje (Ft. Bean)
Andy Islands - Ngizohlala Nginje (Ft. Bean)
Sounds like: Nonku Phiri, Maramza
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 →

Sampa the Great - Class Trip
Sampa the Great - Class Trip
Sounds like: The Roots, Hiatus Kaiyote, Black Star
By Hugh McClure on Aug 24, 2015 | I don't remember scrambling to review something as quickly as I currently am, but Sampa the Great's new mixtape is just that good! After being introduced to her via her verse on Wallace's recent jam "Beauty," we haven't had to wait too long to hear m... read more →

Apple Sawc & Okmalumkoolkat - Roundhouse Kick
Apple Sawc & Okmalumkoolkat - Roundhouse Kick
Sounds like: Jumping Back Slash, Spoek Mathambo
By Dylan Heneck on Aug 21, 2015 | It's a sad day in the world of South African music. Local producer, designer, promoter and all-around talent Applesawc has passed. It's a dark day indeed. The only bright side being that his music will succeed him online. His SoundCloud lends an ide... read more →
