Deep Aztec

Deep Aztec is a name sure to resonate down the halls of electronic music legend for eras to come, reaching out in love to all those in sync with his intoxicating vibrations. It’s a name synonymous with endless wells of creative energy and a perpetual state of both musical and technical evolution. A phenomenon formed in boundless style and peak dancefloor elegance. A producer, multi-instrumentalist, singer and label head at the vanguard of all things nice and breezy. And he sits among the finest company, having shared stages with the likes of Black Coffee, Charles Webster, Tim Green and Culoe De Song, while endlessly adding to a growing list of quality collaborators and innovators, sporting releases across Watergate, Closer To Truth, Nervous Records, Get Physical Music, Human By Default and more. In short, Deep Aztec represents the best of what our shores have to offer sonically. A stellar young voice and a shining light in a crowded scene. One who gets his kicks from pushing boundaries; driven by an innate refusal to stand idle in his work or repeat the same idea twice. Who needs to play it safe? Instead, he continues to forge forward on a forever-journey towards premiere SA House producer status, adding achievement after achievement to his belt along the way. No longer a rising act but risen, good friends, risen indeed - with no signs of a ceiling above him. He’s only just beginning to set his eyes on the total domination of the world stage, establishing himself as far off as Berlin for Rise Open Air 2019 and Light House Festival Croatia 2022. And that’s not to mention his consistent presence across South Africa’s leading music festivals or the regular international playlisting and numerous radio spots that root him further in the ground of the global House foundation. Like a futuristic bullet train, there’s no curbing the forward motion. Each release is light years ahead of the last, growing to new heights without overshadowing what came before, but always zooming on to the next level, leaving in its wake a fiery body of work that not only speaks for itself, but positively sings - demanding your attention with the voice of an angel. All you can do is sit back, put up your feet, grab a drink and enjoy the ride. It’s easy going from here on out. His short career is a case study in going from strength to strength. The triumphant release of his booty-quaking debut Healing Frequencies and the establishment of the soon-to-be all-powerful MFENGU RECORDS are themselves just baby steps in a constantly developing future history that’s as rich with promise as it is mind-bending grooves. It’s a timeline you’ll want to find yourself in, so don’t get left behind.
