I’m starting to hear it in DJ sets and record shops now. It’s got a hypnotic melody that won’t grab you on first listen until you hear it again somewhere else. Yeh, that kind of song.
It’s ‘Township Funk’ by DJ Mujava and comes from the industrial city of Pretoria, South Africa. It is released through Warp Records on 12″ on September 15th worldwide (excluding the UK) and available digitally early, from august 11th. In the UK and Ireland, it will be released by This Is Music LTD.
