Carlos Francisco & Javi Colours – Yanu (Original Mix) [SP Recordings]
Long time friends and musical peers Carlos and Javi team up to deliver a very modern version of the afro sound that’s played out massively in the clubs over the last few years. Successfully delivering the track “Yanu,” this is a stormer that is poised to fire up dancefloors in their motherlands of Brazil and Spain, as well as all over the world.
Le Croque feat. Tabia – Syanisaba (Original Mix) [Madorasindahouse]
Uprising Greek star, Le Croque teams up with the talented vocalist, Tabia — an artist who’s drawing significant attention in the genre’s native South Africa. The result is a mellow, afro groover that works just as well for both the start and end of any club night. Meaningful lyrics are mused through Tabia’s vocal performance, as she takes on the topic of domestic violence against women, sending a message all over the world that this massive cultural issue end. Magical!
DJ Clock feat. Kekelingo – Mudih (Original Mix) [Get Physical]
What can we say about Get Physical? They have been at the forefront of great music discovery for decades. Their investment in the afro house landscape has continued to grow in the last few years, and they’ve managed to uncover some incredible talent. DJ Clock, however, is not new to the scene. Having worked on cornerstone afro and house music industry labels before, The South African native teams up with Kekelingo, and the result is nothing short of exquisite.
Neil Amarey – Lose The Game (Enoo Napa Remix) [MoBlack Records]
MoBlack Records, the most prominent purveyors of afro house in recent years, taps Enoo Napa — one of the most talented producers that this scene has ever seen — to remix Neil Amarey’s new single “Lose The Game.” The rhythm is mesmerizing, and when the vocal comes in, it gets lifted it to another level. This one is set to groove!
Dorian Craft – Divination (Original Mix) [Do Not Sit On The Furniture]
Hypnotic synths and dreamy pads, on top of a classic afro house beat. This is “Divination,” Dorian Craft’s new offering on Behrouz’s Do Not Sit On The Furniture. This label never fails to surprise us, with sounds varying between afro, melodic, and deep house. Enjoy!
Princebaba – Galong (Hanna Hais Remix) [Tropical Heat]
Hailing from France, Princebaba is recognized as one of the most talented young producers in the afro house scene. Hanna Hais puts her touch on Princebaba’s single and delivers a melodic, shamanic, afro-ish version that you will be hard-pressed not to remember. This is Galong!
