KNVL w/ SHI  - July 2022

The sounds that shaped my first year as Wes Lee! The combination of deep ancestral and futuristic sounds that span across a multitude of genre's was something I could not find... This inspired me to do it myself! Get to know me in these 90 minutes.

Wes Lee - Sound Of 22

The Namibian-born and Zürich-based DJ and producer Gina Jeanz @ginajeanzm has established that she is more than capable of rising to the occasion. 

Gina's enthusiasm for empowering and uplifting women in the industry complements her creativity. She began playing the violin when she was 7 years old, which sparked her interest in music. Her curiosity was piqued and held there by this. With her expertly produced songs and well-managed mixes, Gina Jeanz's technical exploration of music arouses passion.

Her choice of music is comparable to a cosmic musical voyage.Gina Jeanz makes it simple to lose track of the coast by tying fresh sounds to well-known favourites. It has the type of futuristic familiarity that encourages even the most reluctant dancers to feel courageous on the dance floor, making you feel secure enough to freely go on a journey.

This Mousai Mix is an eclectic musical journey. I hope you let the rhythm take you on a trip.

Music is Medicine! 𓂀

Full feature and tracklist: https://mixmag.net/feature/amapiano-south-africa-house-music-movement-gauteng

Amapiano is the new house movement emerging from South African townships and taking off as an international phenomenon.

In this mix, JazziDisciples (@user-838561057) member @josiah-de-disciple showcases his take on the sound.

Josiah De Disciple says: "My sound is more melodic and soulful. You will find a lot of Afro House elements as well as inspiration from World Music as that is what I enjoy listening to. In terms of creating I prefer doing it in my own space and the ingredients really depend on the song that’s being made. Sometimes the focus will be on the drums and baseline, other times it’s the vocals and chords or keys. I enjoy working with Lennon Percs, we have two projects that we have worked on the latest one came out last month titled 'Throwback'."

Tracklist

Scene: Spirits Of Makoela Vol.1 mixed by Josiah De Disciple // Amapiano

My full set from the Ultraviolet 4.0 digital festival.
The set features music from Hyperdub's Nazaar, an amazing Angolan artist, my long time favourite Cooly G, some lovely amapiano tunes as well as thumping afro house from Black Motion.
