Black Coffee feat. Toshi – ‘Buya’ – (GET PHYSICAL)

Black Coffee on Get Physical? YEAH!!! What you see is not a fallacy, but a very clever move from one of the most consistent electronic music labels out there.

The South African phenomenon Black Coffee has become well known in recent years, not only to the Soulful House scene, but to a wide mass of people due to his impeccable blend of house, infused with African culture and vibes. In 2012, ‘Buya’ was released featuring the stunning vocalist Yoshi. The track went platinum in Africa in 2 months, bringing Black Coffee into the international spotlight. Now, Get Physical has taken the reigns and handed the track over to Loco Dice, M.A.N.D.Y. and Da Cappo.

Loco Dice lays down a touch of Funk, lightening the mood and takes the track into his world between house and techno, and brings back a bouncy experience.

M.A.N.D.Y. on the other hand, opts to keep the original deepness intact, throwing us a super fluid dance number for stirring up a boiling dancefloor.

Da Cappo then generates an elegantly organic atmosphere, with the energy loosened and wrapped up in a thick blanket of jazzy-swing.

This EP also marks the first taste of a brand new compilation series coming soon to Get Physical, Africa Gets Physical.

I don’t know how you feel, but for me as a guy who loves the soulful side of House, this is a very promising move that hopefully will be followed by many more similar signings soon!
