South African disc jockey and record producer DJ Smallz teams up with hot new hit-making duo Shakes & Les on a hefty new single named “Disco X3”. This new street anthem is another brilliant tune highlight from his critically praised creative world, right in the midst of the global dance season.
The township electronic wave is always expanding, and producers are always expected to connect technical production loops with raw street attitude. Basic commercial set-ups are out; deep piano grooves are in for local clubbers looking to keep the fierce late-night festival adrenaline going. So this special collab combines multiple creative ideas to generate a strong tune which properly satisfies that dancing desire. But the infectious arrangement is a beautiful armor against seasonal tension, tempting you to throw yourself down to the floor.
Sound architects craft an astonishingly deep, slow-burning canvas, filling it with warm chords and harsh snare loops. They bring in speaker-rattling log drums that bounce softly under the main theme to give the overall sound a really weighty, rhythmic character. Nevertheless, the percussion arrangement is clean and stunningly spacious; the modest voice touches are easy to hear without overloading the sound.
