With Sounds of Aloy, South African producer, songwriter, and DJ Tiyani delivers a refined two-track exploration of deep house, marked by atmosphere, rhythm, and restraint. Across the tracks Let It Be and Kwetsima, soulful keys, understated percussion, and subtle log-drum pulses create spacious soundscapes that define Tiyani’s distinctive sonic identity.
Drawing from early experiences with choir, live percussion, and community music spaces in Alexandra, Gauteng, Tiyani fuses African rhythmic traditions with sophisticated deep house to craft a sound uniquely his own. Label owner Kid Fonque describes the release as residing between the spirit of Pepe Bradock and South African 3-step. More than a blend of influences, Sounds of Aloy stands as a focused statement of Tiyani’s approach—subtle, rhythmic, and quietly assured.
