- Deep house meets minimal techno on this silky-smooth number from a new Johannesburg label.
- No Label VA, a newly-minted platform in Johannesburg, wants to show the world that there's more to South African dance music than amapiano and gqom. Its debut offering is an all-locals compilation featuring Cape Town producer Ray Bennett, whose immersive productions fuse elements of deep house and minimal techno. Radiating intrigue and thrill, "Dlangamandla" is the kind of track you can get lost in. Bouncy drum work and fat handclaps make for a spirited rhythm section, while mystical synths and dubby vocals exude wonder, with acidic bleeps to round off the trippy tone.
