South African Slow House Thread

share your favorite SA groovers. Kwaito, Amapiano, etc. Anything that’s slower than regular house tempo.

ill start with Alaska - Accuse. I remember where I was when I first heard this track!! an absolutely facemelting introduction to that low slung swagged out kwaito chant sound. 1999!!!

Was recently reissued on Esa’s “Amandla” complilation on soundway, but unfortunately just the instrumental version – no vocals which are critical.

Thankfully, you can find this album and Accuse on all major digital download sites like amazon thanks to that sweet major label distribution :slight_smile:

Haven’t heard that one before - top tune! Defs going in the DJ bag (maybe even get to play it out post-Covid ha ha ha…).
