Sphesihle Skhakhane’s soulful instrumentation adds organic textures, creating a rich tapestry of sounds that complements Gcwensa’s intricate production.

The album is brought to life under the banner of independent label Insika Yethonga, known for championing groundbreaking African electronic acts.
