Much loved South African artist Sun-El Musician launches his 11 track ‘AEDM’ (African Electronic Dance Music) EP.
On its creation, Sun-El explained: “African Electronic Dance Music, to me I would define it as not just a sound that designates a single genre but more of a sound that encompasses a style of African elements infused with EDM, but it’s a modern way of exporting the African Dance sound (House Music) to the rest of the world through giving it that African traditional elements of drums, rhythm, and culture.”
‘Look out for Bestfriends’ ft. Msaki, ‘Higher’’ ft. Simmy and ‘I like it Anyway’ ft. Ami Faku which all hint at past success with fellow femme collaborators with whom he created award-winning and well-loved hits like viral sensation ‘Ubomi Abumanga’, Into ‘Ingawe’, and ‘Emkhaya’, interspersed with some strong electronic/afro house instrumentals to see in the festive season.
