We just say Fouk.

For Daniel Leseman & Junktion (Hans Peeman), successful producers on their own merits and friends since childhood, a collaboration was inevitable. Their house sound infused with disco and a lot of funk has been proven to be very infectious.

After the infamous Detroit Swindle signed them to their Heist imprint and released the booming Kill Frenzy EP their name was established firmly to a broad and quickly growing audience. The result was requests for DJ sets across Europe, the America’s & Australia with personal highlights including Glastonbury, LoveBox, Concrete Paris, Output New York, Club Space Miami, Claire and De Marktkantine in Amsterdam.

Their first vinyl release as Fouk, on their own Outplay Records was met with great enthusiasm, the brilliant reactions to ‘Stuff Your Dad Liked’ and ‘Cat Lady’ propelled Fouk and Outplay firmly into the scene as the ‘one to watch’. Since then they’ve released EP’s on Room With A View, The House of Disco and Razor-n-Tape and made a string of strong remixes for the likes of Kraak & Smaak, Smoove & Turrell, Groove Armada, The Brand New Heavies, Luke Million, Joey Negro and Mayer Hawthorne.

After releasing ‘Release The Kraken EP’ featuring Thumpasaurus on The House of Disco, ‘Truffles EP’ on Heist Recordings in 2019 and two EP’s on their own Outplay offshoot ’24 Carrot’ they return again on Heist in 2021 with ‘Blue Steel EP’. Continuing to build on the sound they have evolved throughout the years with a new impulse of creativity.

Welcome to the sound of the real South.
My name is SmaxKhu — a South African artist, storyteller, and cultural voice with a passion for rhythm, truth, and legacy. I'm not just here to make music... I’m here to leave a mark.

🎙️ Rapper. Afrobeat Explorer. Voice of the Streets.
From poetic verses over gritty hip-hop beats to melodic flows inspired by Afrobeat energy, my sound is a journey through culture, struggle, and self-expression. Every track I drop is a blend of lived experience, sonic experimentation, and a message meant to echo long after the beat fades.

Whether I’m breaking down the roots of SA hip-hop, calling out what’s real in the game, or spitting raw bars that reflect where I come from — I always keep it 100.

🎧 What You’ll Find Here

🔥 Freestyles that punch with purpose
🎵 Singles that blend bars and vibes
💭 Concept tracks inspired by life, culture, and African futurism
🎤 Stories told through rhythm, lyricism, and soul

This page isn’t just about music — it’s about narratives. I create to tell stories, to spark thought, and to offer something more than just a beat drop.

💡 A Bit About Me

I grew up immersed in both the grind of township life and the dream of something greater. Influenced by local giants like Emtee, A-Reece, and Nasty C — and inspired by global voices like Burna Boy and Kendrick Lamar — I found my own voice by bridging the gap between insight and entertainment.

You’ll hear the hunger in my delivery.
You’ll feel the roots in every rhythm.
And if you’re really listening — you’ll catch the layers beneath every line.

🎥 Beyond the Mic

I also share music breakdowns, hot takes on the SA music scene, and artist commentary on platforms like TikTok (@smaxkhu). My mission is to build culture while contributing to it — to give value while showcasing what I bring to the table as an artist.

I'm not just here to be heard.
I'm here to be understood. To connect.
To build a community that stands for realness, creativity, and the future of African music.
