about

DM.Recordings are proud to announce the return of Monocles with the second volume of his Township Vibe EP following the success of the initial release in March 2015. This time round the five track EP features eccentric afro sounds from 2Point1 and Tape as well as Monocles himself but also features the likes of Kay Tyler, Ntombi, Butana and Danzito.

Monocles has demonstrated a great blend of soulful afro house with ‘You & I’ featuring Kay Tyler on the vocals which is has great charting potential but also is a song for the lovers. To contrast this, ‘Danzii Vibe’ is a deep tribal track with a township aura delivered to the listener but is nicely heightened with keys. 2Point1 brings a very nostalgic sound with the live cut of ‘Nga’Linda’ featuring seductive vocals from Ntombi; in addition to this he teams up with Tapes on ‘Wa Xitwa’ showing the depths of his productions. Lastly, Tapes also gets on the buttons and producers a floor-thumping afro-tech track alongside Butana called ‘Mme Rata Ntate’ meaning Father and Love.

Mastered by D-Malice @ DM.Lab (Bedford, United Kingdom)
