Thulani Mabena stage name "Cubique DJ" is an African Deep, Soulful & Afro-House producer and DJ. 
Hailing from a musical family, Thulani was highly influenced by his sister Geraldine (Rest in peace), his uncles and cousins who growing up were part of the church band and choir.

Date of birth 1992. Born & Raised in Middelburg Mpumalanga, South Africa.
Expresses Thoughts & Feelings Through The Inevitable World of Music. Evolving with the technology playing from the vinyl- era up to the digital- era. Treating every DJ Set and music production as a spiritual journey.

Thulani's music career began in the mid year 2005 At the age Of 13, when Hip Hop was still a huge part of his hometown's music scene. Started as a rapper, then a record producer.

With no success in the production of Hip Hop music, Thulani had to depart from his deep art. Two years later began doing his own house music productions under stage name DJ CB. Here and there he'd produce Hip Hop but mainly Dance music. Then later had to stop producing Hip Hop and focus on producing dance music. That's around the time his DJ career took place. In those days, if you were not a vinyl DJ getting a booking was not easy, let alone getting paid for a DJ booking.
Met with "Cuebur" who taught him more about music production and virtual DJing. Vinyl DJ skills were self-taught when an influential DJ from his hometown "DJ Ndaba" gave him his turntables & records for practice.

Thulani has also been a prolific remixer throughout his career remixing songs for artists locally and internationally.
Thulani is still doing a lot of remixing as it helps build and architect his production skills.

First record label to sign was "Mtoni Jikelele Entertainment" in 2007, a label that was owned Adv. Mtho Xulu who also happens to be his cousin that always loved music.
2011 Thulani then met a label owner "Jaguar Paw" who runs the label Deep Forest SA which pushed artists like Darque, Wishingsoul, Floss, Denny Dugg, Lele X, House Victims, Kaylow, Deep Xpressions, ChocolateBar to name a few.
Signed under the label and got recognised by other labels.

Released his debut album in 2014 "Alter Native" which did very well in terms of numbers. Sold in Musica stores all over South Africa (Musica stores and any other music stores that cell CD have since shutdown due to the internet).

His first single on the album titled "Low" is still making huge waves on radio, charts, tv charts and international dance charts after so many years.

His sophomore album came in to play early 2021, and dropped on the same day as his debut on the Lockdown House Party on Channel O.

Cubique DJ is a very musical artist and continues to inspire many that follow his journey.

Jimpster: The UK House craftsman shaping soundscapes with soul and subtlety

If you’ve ever lost yourself in the smooth, rolling rhythms of deep house, you’ve probably had Jimpster to thank without even knowing it.  Behind the decks, in the studio, or even just in the groove of his own life, Jimpster—aka Jamie Odell—is one of the quiet yet crucial architects of the genre, a producer who’s somehow managed to keep his sound fresh while paying homage to house music’s roots.  With releases stretching back to the early 90's, Jimpster’s sonic journey has evolved from the cut n paste, sample-heavy bedroom productions of his early releases to the deep house anthems he’s known for today.  He’s the artist who’s mastered the art of organic warmth, blending digital precision with analog textures in ways that sound both timeless and ahead of their time.  His music often draws from a deep well of influences: jazz, funk, soul, electro and even ambient textures—but it’s always tethered to the dancefloor.  He’s the kind of producer who can make a sub-bass rumble feel like a heartbeat while surrounding it with lush, atmospheric synths and intricate percussion that push his tracks into a hypnotic, almost meditative space.

Jimpster's discography is packed with both original tracks and remixes that make you move without even realising it: there’s the spaced-out, trippy disco allure of “English Rose”, the groove-heavy slo-mo swagger of “The Sun Comes Up” (which is basically the soundtrack to *that* sunset), and let’s not forget the timeless “Dangly Panther.”  Each track feels like a wave—a smooth ride that pulls you along effortlessly but leaves you wanting more.  His remix of Osunlade’s Momma’s Groove has become iconic but he has also offered his golden touch to artists as diverse as Seal, Bob Marley, Kerri Chandler, Josh Wink and Adam Port to name just a few.

But Jimpster’s influence doesn’t just stay in the studio.  As a DJ, his sets are like a carefully curated journey, blending stripped back disco, underground house and the more soulful end of techno into smooth, liquid transitions that captivate without ever feeling rushed.  Whether he’s playing an intimate, low-key club night or a larger festival stage, his mixes retain a sense of control—an ability to weave a narrative out of tempo, tone and texture, always keeping the dancefloor locked in.  From Panorama Bar (Berlin) to Cielo (NYC), Womb (Tokyo) to Fabric (London), Jimpster has pretty much span there and returned with the T shirt.

As co-founder and A&R of Freerange, Delusions Of Grandeur and most recently Cyphon Recordings, he’s helped nurture an entire generation of producers, sharing his deep understanding of groove and sound design with those who came after him.  Despite his three decades in the business and pivotal role in shaping the electronic music landscape, Jimpster remains relentlessly focused on who, or what, will come next, as excited as ever by discovering the freshest new talent and sounds to expose to the world.

Jimpster’s music is a reflection of his unrelenting pursuit of musical depth in club music.  A balance between nostalgic warmth and forward-focussed vision that continues to captivate listeners and dancers alike. For him, it’s not about creating music for the moment, but building sounds that resonate over time, long after the track has finished playing.
