connected favourites Diamond Dealer & Idd Aziz are back on
the label, this time as collaborators on the sublime new single
'Peah'.
Diamond Dealer is a South African artist who has made it onto
the world stage having risen up from playing in the heart of
the local townships in Bloemfontein. He has now played
alongside the likes of Black Coffee, and DJ Kent all across
Europe, Asia and Africa. His collaborator here, multi-talented
singer and musician Idd Aziz, is very much the voice of the
current Afro house sound and has worked with a wide array of
its most vital producers and labels. This new cut has already
had early support from the likes of Jamie Jones, Laurent
Garnier and Shimza who included it on a mix for BBC Radio 1
Xtra.
'Peah' translates from Swahili as 'to give' and is a feel-good
Afro house track with uplifting piano. It has your mind turning
to warmer summer days with its bubbling grooves and the
spiritual vocals up top from Aziz. This one is a modern update
on a classic club anthem sound and is sure to get plenty of
outdoor play as things warm up.
