A voice that moves across continents. A sound that defies borders. With Beneath the Surface EP, KALI MIJA makes her debut on Kaphonic Records and firmly establishes herself as one of the most singular voices in the South African AfroHouse scene — and beyond.

Her music blends deep, immersive beats with haunting vocals, crafting a sonic world that is powerful, personal, and uncompromising. Heard around the world, played by top DJs, and felt by those who seek something different, her voice cuts through and goes straight to the heart.

Each track on Beneath the Surface dives into a core human emotion: “Why Should I?” challenges self-doubt, “Stay & Fight” is an anthem of resilience, and “When the Alcohol Is Involved” captures the fragile chaos of letting go.

The goal of Kaphonic Records is to bring new Voices and perspectives to Ancestral Music, by placing them within a Electro realm.

Kaphonic Records aims to be a dynamic link between electronic music and ancestral Afro-Caribbean music, but not only...

So many definitions which agree around a key concept: the “Traditional Future”, a sort of concentrate of traditions expressed in the almost future present.

Crossing aesthetics and practices, inventing new forms, creating artistic shocks, charting a path where the contemporary live scene recounts influences to better shake them up, that's Kaphonic Records.
