A deeply personal introspection, Sio and Atmos Blaq deliver ‘Abandonment Issues’, an emotive and captivating offering of Afro-tech brilliance. Embracing her vulnerableness, Johannesburg-based storyteller and singer-songwriter Sio explores the common denominator of her dilemmas and finds herself at the heart of them. Teaming up with Soweto native Atmos Blaq, following a deep connection to his 2022 record ‘Dear Old Man’, ‘Abandonment Issues’ presents the very best of both artists’ musical prowess. Immersing listeners in their thoughts, this collaborative EP brings you two hauntingly striking productions from two of South Africa’s most exciting artists.

With 'Hora,' I wanted to explore the moodier, downtempo side of my Afro House sound. Collaborating with South African artist Lizwi, we aimed to create an enthralling listening experience.

'Hora' is all about crossover appeal. By blending Lizwi’s distinctive South African vocal chants with my signature guitar elements, we crafted a hypnotic and spiritual single that's as captivating to listen to as it is perfect for the dance floor.

Bringing a refreshing approach to Afro House, Nitefreak (@nitefreakdj) is at the forefront of the Progressive Afro House genre. ‘Falling’ begins with a classic, simple percussive groove. Gradually, more percussive elements join in and are accompanied by the melodic aroma that falls into place. The dark and moody lyrics set the tone of uncertainty regarding love and where developing feelings may take oneself. As the record progresses, the brisk and edgy temperatures become more prevalent. Everything comes to a ghostly halt right before the climactic moments of when the listener is propelled on a journey of electric solidarity.
