KEINEMUSIK Vinilo y CD

Review: Keinemuzik return for a fresh split 12", co-starring production peers Alan Dixon and Arabic Piano on the long-burner that is 'Thandaza'. A brooding progressive cut that glides through sun-upped vocal chants and shuffling percussive elements, the track is a veritable exciter, with Piano's vocals coming off especially charming. Dixon's signature piano line abounds in the breakdown, giving images of cocktail-glassed refractions of beachside fires backclothed by a deep blue ocean.

Review: Keinemusik returns with another infectious offering, this time enlisting the vocal talents of Chuala. Following the success of their previous collaboration, 'Les Gout', this latest release is a highly anticipated addition to the Keinemusik catalogue. The A-side features a deep house gem, its hypnotic groove and soulful vocals creating an irresistible blend of energy and emotion. The track has already made waves on dancefloors, generating a buzz since its debut at Exit Festival in 2023. On the flip, the 'Dub' version strips things back, highlighting the hypnotic groove and allowing the listener to get lost in the depths of the music. With its infectious rhythm and captivating vocals, this release is poised to become another Keinemusik classic.

Review: Berlin's Keinemusik bring fresh amapiano flavours to the heretofore mostly minimal house label, courtesy of a fresh collab between label honcho Rampa in collaboration with newly welcomed wunderkind Swazi producer, Uncle Waffles. Named after the national genesis of singeli, among other recognisable dance styles - Tanzania - this is a still-steaming ambient amapiano number, one that will not, by our estimation, go unnoticed as a bridger of two sounds. The fast riser Uncle Waffles, a 24-year-old from Eswatini, has already graced Billboard as a progenitor of the next-gen amapiano sound, and 'Tanzania' here sees an official release remix-release, not long after the debut version of her single here has already climbed the charts.
