Welcome to Episode 074 of Deeper Sounds of Nairobi, recorded live during my US tour in Austin, Texas, at the iconic Soho House, immersing listeners in Afro-house, Amapiano, and soulful electronic grooves that blend global influences with African roots from Nairobi's underground scene—highlighting Kenyan innovator IBORIAN for authentic East African flair. The set opens with South African Gaba Cannal feat. Kundu Leele's "Afrika," a soulful Amapiano nod to heritage; transitions to Johannesburg's Thakzin & Botswana's Jinger Stone on "Ke Nna Yo," fusing 3-step Afro-house with emotive vocals; builds with SA collab Jazzworx, Thukuthela x Babalwa M feat. Dlala Thukzin's "uValo," merging Gqom and Amapiano; evokes spirituality in Thakzin, Thandazo & Tete's "The Calling"; shifts atmospheric with UK veteran Charles Webster's "Free"; spotlights Nairobi's IBORIAN on hypnotic "SIRENS"; dawns fresh with Cape Town's Dwson "New Day (Original Mix)"; injects Nigerian Rema's playful Afrobeats "FUN"; introspects via Jazzworx, MaWhoo x Thukuthela feat. GL_Ceejay's "Uzizwa Kanjan"; adds Dutch nu-disco from Adri Block, Block & Crown's "I Want To Thank You (Block & Crown Nudisco Dubb)"; drifts melodically with Sweden's Vidojean X Oliver Loenn "Drift"; rolls Gqom with Durban's Argento Dust & Dankie Boi "Drum Roll"; energizes via SA's Qhizzo "Vosho (DJ Satellite Remix)" by Angola's DJ Satellite; heals spiritually with Argento Dust & Portugal-based Bun Xapa's "2G2"; and closes contemplatively with Thakzin & Xolani Guitars' "When We Play," weaving jazz-Amapiano strings. Bridging SA's Amapiano core, Kenyan creativity, Nigerian vibrancy, and European polish, stream this rhythmic journey now! #DeeperSoundsOfNairobi #USTour
