Nqalastyle's podcast: Recent Episodes
None
For the very first time this podcast has a special mix from a very deep
young dj/producer that has caught my attention once again,he goes by the
name Stereomusiq aka Ofuren.
Here's a short Q&A I had with him to
accompany the mix.
Nqalastyle: My man thanks for droppin' this very deep mix for my podcast,for those who don't know you who is Ofuren aka Stereomusiq in short?
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: Its a pleasure & thank you for
having me. Well, Stereomuziq Ngwenya aka Ofuren is a young Deep House
producer & poet from Mpumalanga, I also foundered a new underground label
that I'll be launching soon with my partner Sibusiso Ncongwane.
Nqalastyle: That's interesting,any hints on who will be the first artist to
release on the label,and what kinda sound should we expect?
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: Our first release will comprise
with productions from myself, Fred Buddah & Soul Arab. You can expect a
rich & dark mixture of pure 'African Deep House'. The sort of sound the
label will be all about.
Nqalastyle: That's nice,I notice you got guys we haven't really heard of,I'm looking forward to that. Why deep house when thers many other genres out there?
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: Oh yeah, ROOTS GO DEEP MUSIC is all
about new & underground talent..keepin it deep in every turn and to answer
your question about "why deep house", its simple, to me deep house is
spirituality, an the sonic expression of the human soul through beats,
breaks & bass, that's why I was so drawn to it. I wouldn't even classify it
as music because when I listen to it, it doesn't feel like music..feels
like a journey..a journey through yourself..almost like meditation
Nqalastyle: Yea I feel you man,what's your vision for your new label,who would u wanna work with, who influences you in terms of your production?
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: The vision I've had since day one
is to expose the deep underground scene of South Africa, which is very underrated. That's why I'm always searching for South African deep house producers that have real talent and have a real appreciation for this art
and it feels as though its my job to convey their passion to the world. I wouldn't say I have influences, rather I have inspirations, people who have inspired me to seek & music, two people infact, Radio Slave & Lars
Behrenroth..although I've never met them, they've both imparted wisdom to me. Radio Slave really inspired me to be different in my music, I do not sound like him nor do I want to but his sound really inspires to create my own individual, cause that's what art is, its individuality. Lars on the other hand really inspired me to seek the music, to find the diamond on the dust that evrybody else has missed.
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: To seek and make music*
Nqalastyle: Interesting stuff,I can feel your passion for this sound..now back to the mix, it is definetly not for persons under the age of real deep underground house..what inspired this mix?
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: Lol your show inspired this mix, I'm really a fan of the other mixes before mine and they really set the tone for this one although I do like to mix it up abit
Nqalastyle: Thanks man..do you have any favorite djs/producers local and international,or any artists that we should look out for in 2012?
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: My favourite local producers are D'nel, Drumshift Phenyo, Luka, Soul Arab, Fred Buddah, Ted Jood.
My
favourite international producers are Lars Behrenroth, Pulshar, P.Laoss,
Radio Slave and you can look forward to my new EP that will be dropping in May under FOMP UK
Nqalastyle: Ok thanks again man,how do people contact you for remixing,bookings or any other related stuff?
Siyabonga | Roots Go Deep Music 2012©: They can contact me on facebook at
www.facebook.com/ofuren or they can email me at ofuren@gmail.com and if
they got a demo they can send it to info.rootsgodeep.gmail.com or upload it
in our drop box at www.soundcloud.com/rootsgodeep
