Chuki

Released

This 2023 mini album is another sterling example of Kenyan musicians’ lightness of touch, and ability to use internationalist and South African influenced house rhythms as a framework to let local vocalists shine. The groove here is club or pool party friendly, but these are songs above all else, and really elaborately structured, emotionally potent ones, often letting singers soar into really spine-tingling territory.
