Classics Part 8 Mixed^-_-^by Those Boys

“Those Boys” are what they describe as a Soulful House Duo that incorporates live elements as well as blend of digital music with the use of a live dj. A very new and exciting form of music and extremely unique in every aspect, Those Boys consist of two incredibly talented young men.

Lesley Theko from Sebokeng in the Vaal on the Bass Guitar as some may say, Lesley started playing the keyboard at his church where he gained his experience and was able to learn and perfect his art. His first gig so to speak was at the Civic Theatre where he played at a gospel show that was taking place. After exposing the music industry to his amazing talent he went on to work alongside the likes of Bucie, Mi Casa, Lindiwe Maxolo and William Sejake just to name a few. Looking to Robert Glasper and The Roots as his inspiration, Lesley is very keen on learning more about music and his own capabilities while making soulful and heart-warming music in the process with Those Boys.

Sthe Kekana, originally from Ennerdale but now residing in Evaton West in the Vaal, is the dj/producer who brings it all together. A music collector and dj from a very young age, he was destined for the music industry. Learning to make important sacrifices in his life very early, he sold his computer in order to buy turntables to pursue his passion. Remarkably, his first gig came while he was in Grade 8 when he was asked to dj at his school’s matric farewell function. Since then he has played alongside the likes of 2lani the warrior, Dj Fresh, DJ Oskido, Clive Bean, Roger Goode, The Late Dj Monde(r.i.p) and Black Coffee just to name a few. His musical inspiration comes from dj’s/artists/producers such as Louie Vega, Atjazz, Tokollo, Wunmi, Robert Glasper Experiment, Rasmus Faber, Osunlade and Abicah Soul . He hopes to reach his goals through Those Boys and share his passion as well as his undeniable talent behind the wheels of steel.

Those Boys each met through mutual friends but somehow something brought these two individuals together musically, something that after hearing their music need not be explained. Their music will undoubtedly inspire and change the lives of those who dare to listen. They are not only talented but they are an example of how the passion of two individual artists can have one voice; a voice so brilliant that they don’t need to be anything other than… just as they so freely put it… Those Boys!
