Notes:
A very special promotional 12" sampler.
This deep house release infuses African rhythms with soulful house music for a deeper house experience. On Side-1, Joe Claussell's edit of Madala Kunene's 'Khon' Othwele' brings a tribal, hypnotic groove, blending traditional elements with house beats. Side-2 opens with Amampondo's 'Giva Kasra More', a rich cultural fusion that combines African sounds with house music in a seamless, danceable flow. The track brings vibrant energy while maintaining deep-rooted cultural authenticity. The release closes with 'Hungry On Arrival' by Outernational Meltdown, offering a jazzy, laidback vibe that contrasts beautifully with the dancefloor-ready tracks, creating a perfect balance of rhythm and relaxation. This release is a dynamic celebration of African influence in house music, full of rich textures and grooves.
