#30 Feat. Hype in Afro House

South African Afro House producer TiiRO presents his powerful new EP Usiko 2.0, a release rooted deeply in African rhythm, spiritual expression, and contemporary electronic production. The project stands as a celebration of collaboration, culture, and groove - merging traditional Afro-centric elements with forward-thinking club aesthetics. At the heart of Usiko 2.0 is TiiRO's signature sound, exceptional remixed and reworked evolution of TiiRO's original Usiko, reshaped into a more electrical Afro-Tech and Afro-Melodic sound. This release revisits the core themes of tradition, spirit, and African identity, but delivers them with sharper energy, deeper synth work, and a forward-leaning club focus. The original creation of Usiko is enriched by the contributions of Da Motion and Hitsvault, two artists whose creative input adds depth and character to the release. Together, the trio crafts a cohesive body of work that balances authenticity with innovation. The track "Asimbonanga" tells the story of a hero - a leader, a chief - who disappeared in a matter of moments, yet remains ever-present in spirit. Deeply symbolic, the song reflects the legacy of Nelson Mandela, not through direct narration, but through emotion, atmosphere, and rhythm. The vocals on "Asimbonanga" are performed by TiiRO himself, adding a personal and authentic layer to the tribute. More than just a collection of tracks, Usiko 2.0 represents a shared artistic vision - one that honours African musical heritage while pushing Afro House into new global spaces. The EP reflects the growing influence of South Africa as a driving force in the worldwide Afro House movement, where ancestral rhythm meets modern electronic expression. Usiko 2.0 is not just a remix project; it is a reinvention - crafted for listeners with deeper meaning.
