Shaka - Theme From The Riverwalk EP (Local Talk)

Podcasts

Shaka - The Bird's Eye View (Local Talk LT118)

Shaka - Four Flowers EP (Quintessentials 86)

DFRA & Shaka - Collab Grooves Part 1 EP (Vibes and Grooves)

Shaka is back on Local Talk with a follow-up to "The Riverwalk EP" released back in 2020.
The Bird's Eye View continues on the same deep, soulful and uplifting house tip with waves of ear-pleasing music. There's a genuine swing to the opening track Short Circuit that is infectious and Shaka really gets to work on those keys. It brings back memories of those golden years of house music when every track Strictly Rhythm classic was an instant classic.

Vibes and Grooves is back with a first collaboration and is happy to welcome Diego Ruiz aka DFRA the man from Buenos Aires City. We fell in love with his music the first time we heard it and we think he is perfect for the Collab Grooves Part 1 EP. With „Supernatural" and „Indifference“ DFRA shows his musical skills as a producer and delivers the perfect vibes for the A side. Heavy grooving Basslines accompany jazzy vibes bringing two massive tunes for the dance floor that won't let your legs stay still.

DSOH #681 Deeper Shades Of House w/ guest mix by SHAKA

House #Saladcast 722 | Shaka
Vibes and Grooves / Traxx Underground / Kolour LTD
Basel, Switzerland

Since 1989, Shaka has been the pseudonym for Swiss DJ and producer Kurt Spichiger. In the late 80’s he began to record his first Hip Hop and Funk mix tapes. Eventually more and more Acid, Chicago House and the sounds of Detroit made their way into his mixes.
Throughout the mid-1990’s, Shaka could be heard at the bigger electronic music events and clubs in Switzerland. His sets consisted at this time primarily of old Detroit Soul and Chicago House and were appreciated for their intimacy. As a result, Shaka has developed a style that stands out from big room electronic music and continues
to astonish his audiences with surprisingly subtle and organic tracks.
As a producer, in 1995, Shaka’s first record came out on the Swiss label D3. Since then Shaka has seen releases on Axodya, Country Western, Revolver Canada, Morris Audio, Floppy Funk, Kolour LTD, Balance US, Traxx Underground to name but a few. Finally, in 2019 Shaka launched his new label Vibes and Grooves to provide a platform to breath life into his personal projects integrating his various influences under one banner with like-minded musicians.
Far and beyond the Beatport charts, Shaka’s DJ sets remain influenced by different directions and often come with surprises. He is first and foremost a music-lover, stylistic barriers be damned.
