Timon and Pumba (South Africa) on MUSIC AND WINE Radio - Episode 43 [MUSIC AND WINE Radio]

[W]e're particularly excited about this week's guest mix by the first South African artists we’ve featured on our radio program: Timon & Pumba.
We all know how vibrant South Africa's deep house music scene has been in recent years. Not only has the country become a destination for the world's top DJs and music ambassadors, but it's become a fertile ground for homegrown talent such as Black Coffee, Mzee, and Culoe de Song, who have themselves enjoyed considerable international success.
According to DJ Joe DiPadova (One/Gotsoul), one critical reason for the explosion of deep house music in South Africa is that some of the scene's leaders co-opted the radio stations there and got them to feature the music on various shows. In effect, this helped convert the music into "mainstream" although it is considered "underground" elsewhere in the world. "Deep house is bigger than hip-hop there, can you believe it?" says DiPadova. Friend of the show Ndwyka Passos of Angola tells us that the parties in Johannesburg and Cape Town are out of this world, with rooms filled with a sea of people dancing in a trance, taking it all in and basking in unison with everyone around them to the DJ's every beat.
It's no wonder we got excited when we got introduced to Timon (Lungani Dongwe) and Pumba (Nkosinathi Pumba Cele) by probably their biggest supporter and M&W fan Mlungisi Mlambo late last year. The duo from KwaZulu-Natal has been together for over 7 years and are residents for DEf People and 033Lifestyle. We’re very proud to feature this soulful loungy mix they’ve recorded exclusively for www.musicandwineradio.com
Here’s the tracklist:
1 - Soulpersona feat Goldie Harrison - Let the music play
2 - Alton miller - Tulum (original mix)
3 - Bugge wesseltoft - Change
4 - Justin imperiale - Tropical jazz (original mix)
5 - Audio soul project - My Bluff (Extended version)
6 - Bougie Soliterre - Got the Bug (main mix)
