There are too many highlights here to choose a real standout. Right from the off the likes of Voices of Liberation by Soulroots feat. Troymusiq set a spiritual house vibe. This is music with real feeling and warm grooves. Love Again from Soulroots & Zakes Bantwini pairs star gazing chords and rolling drums with lush percussion and shuffling beats that are pure gold.
Let Me In from Soulroots, West & Hill and Jackie Queens layers up dancing drums and xylophone sounds with tinkling keys and DIY percussion that is afro magic. Choose You by Soulroots & Native Tribe feat. Lelloh then takes you to another dimension with an angelic vocal that will make the hairs on your spine stand up and closer Dogo Dogg is another classic house sound from South Africa.
With the likes of Keinemusik, Black Coffee, Eelke Kleijn and many more already playing these tunes, you are likely to be hearing them all summer long.
