Top Songs of November

Image
1) Brian Kadengu - Marunjeya Brilliant track from Brian, he has proven why he won the Star Bright competition on this track. A masterpiece 2)  DJ Stavo ft Oliver Mtukudzi - Mwedzi Muchena DJ Stavo made a jam for years t come with this one. At this level he can give those hits from SA a run for their money. With Tuku offering the vocals, you cant help it but enjoy. 3) Zyon Black ft Tafnaz & Thabo Tizzle Mamelodi - Jungle Cat Not the best from Zyon Black but it a great effort. The song will be loved by EDM fans but it will not crossing over like what Nyoka Musango Dubstep Remix did. Lovely track regardless. Proud_Zimbo

Track Review : Zyon Black ft Tafnaz & Thabo Tizzle Mamelodi - Jungle Cat

Zyon Black of back with a new track yay !!!, this guy makes me go crazy every time he drops a new track...so ya am excited with every new offering he releases. This time he features Tafnaz and Thabo Tizzle Mamemodi on this house track. Zyon last offering was Rudo Rwanhasi ft Aura The Poet and am a big fan of the track. Rudo Rwanhasi received commendable airplay on all local urban radio stations and was also in the Hot 99 Dubstep to ten charts in South Africa.  So how does the new track fare ?? Zyon Black has proved to be a versatile producer, which led to me coining him the EDM King of Zim. He can make great Dubstep, great Drum & Bass, Bigroom, Trap and House. This new track is on a house tip and its sounding pretty good and the track definitely meets international standards. They fused the track with some trap elements, the trap bounce reminded me of Dark Horse by Katy Perry. In overall the track is well made, great work from Zyon Black. The track is about getting los

Video and Track Review : Noble Stylz ft Quonfuzed - Kusvika Rinyure

Image
Kusvika Rinyure is the lead single from Noble Stylz's Masofa Panze 3. The track is getting a lot of love from Zimbabwe evidenced by the song reaching the number 1 spot on Power Fm's daily top ten. Noble Stylz's announced his arrival onto the music scene with  the critically acclaimed Masofa Panze 1 which made him a powerhouse in Zim Rap circles, Noble showcased his amazing talent and intricate wordplay which endeared him to many Hip Hop fans. Masofa Panze 2 has some good tracks but in overall it faltered when compared to Masofa Panze 1. This year he is hoping to gain lost ground with Masofa Panze 3, whether he manages to do so or not will be seen in time. So how good is Kusvika Rinyure  song and video??? The track was produced by Sheltang at Sunshine Studios. The instrumental is on an acoustic and soulful tip, the beat is mellow and chilled as expected from the genres adopted. Love the guitar work, it accentuates the soulful part of the track. For a dancehall produc

Track Review : DJ Stavo ft Oliver Mtukudzi - Mwedzi Muchena

Kwekwe Hustler DJ Stavo is back again with another jam, this time he switched from featuring SA artists to work with the Legendary Oliver "Samanyanga" Mtukudzi. Dj Stavo has given us club banger's such as Ingoma ft Shota, and Teka Famba ft FB. So will the new song add to Stavo's growing list of hit tracks???? Dj Stavo showed his talent on the production of this one. Working with a legend always make one raise their game and Stavo did raise his game. Love the instrumental, it has some Heavy K kind of feel to it......just awesome. As the song progresses one can hear the Tuku guitar giving the song a great afro feel. This track can give those SA deep/tribal joints a run for their money. I can see Black Motion going crazy performing this jam or Culoe De Song dropping this one on his set... fingers crossed . Great work by Stavo on the productions. Samanyanga was on duty to give us the vocals and vakuru havapotse. Tuku deliver his signature style of singing and

Track Review : Adele Hello (Icytat Remix)

Image
Local house DJ, producer and Star Fm radio presenter Icytat decided to join the wagon of Adele's Hello remixes which are sprouting form all over he world with his own remix. Icytat has been making strides with getting his brand out there and with his partnership with Star Fm many local house fans are definitely taking notice. He however has not been having much success on the production side of things, due to Zim's proximity to SA ( house capital of Africa if not the world ) any local house track will face heavy comparisons from SA tracks and nearly always that never bodes well for the Zim producer. So will this be the track that announces Icytat on the music production side??? The remix sounds very good. As a big house fan, l love the arrangement....the simplicity. The instrumental is made in a way that lets the vocals do the leading. He did not try to go for the kind of remix where one changes the song completely, he kept the Adele signature and feel to the song and ju

Track Review : Bryan Kadengu - Marunjeya

Bryan Kadengu is an extremely talented afro jazz artist. He was the winner of the Star Brite 2012 competition. Winning such a competition says a lot about ones ability and talent. After three years Bryan seems to have finally announced his arrival on the music scene with this new jam Marunjeya . The track is getting quite a lot of airplay on all urban radio stations and recently Bryan performed at the Ngoma Nehosho Concert which featured the likes of Jazz Crooner Victor Kunonga and Superstar Legend Oliver Mtukudzi. So how good is his latest single?? Before we go any further l have a confession.....l have a sweet spot for jazz music. With that out the way l have to say the song is sounding amazing. Love the instrumental. The guitar on this track is heavenly...and the instruments are well balanced, the mixing was well done. The track is clearly audible, both the vocals and instrumental, they complement each other well...great work on the mastering. This is a heartbreak and s
