about

Selville has a knack for exposing virtuosic, experimental electronic music. Hailing from Seshego, Limpopo, Neozar collaborates with the ingenious Lunga SA on production. Their collaboration seamlessly blends the classic mid-tempo style with a touch of proudly South African Kwaito influence.

The result is the track "Ma Grootman," which takes listeners on a nostalgic journey. It transports them to a Soweto tavern from the '90s, where the atmosphere is alive with the sounds of a bygone era. Yet, the track also defies time, infusing it with new textures and contemporary elements that resonate with the year 2023. "Ma Grootman" stands as a sonic bridge, paying homage to the past while pushing the boundaries of the present. This unique blend not only celebrates the legacy of 45BPM, popularized by Glen Lewis, but also honors the iconic Kwaito genre that has shaped South Africa's musical landscape.

lyrics

Ba go tseba ge ke fihla ba tshwara fase
Ke Neozar, mfana wa go tšwa Kasi
Brown Dash No Play No Mickey Mouses
Stop there ema nyana re betha HOUSE!

Stop There Ema Nyana Betha House
Brown Dash A re dlale di Mickey mouse
Wa ba tseba wa ba tseba wa tseba ke bo Lunga le bo ba dlala house

Ba go tseba ge ke fihla ba tshwara fase
Ke Neozar, mfana wa go tšwa Kasi
Brown Dash No Play No Mickey Mouses
Stop there ema nyana re betha HOUSE!

Stop there ema nyana re betha House
Ke bafana ba, ba dlala House
Wa ba tseba ke bo Swizz ba dlala House
Ke bo Lunga le bo, ba dlala House

Mabebeza nna ke rata go spend’er
Mabebeza nna ke rata go Vibe’r
Mabebeza nna ke rata go Groover
Nko e ketle ke go tshware ka tsa Ma grootman
Vandag ke go betha ka tsa Ma Grootman

Mabebeza nna ke rata go spend’er
Mabebeza nna ke rata go Vibe’r
Mabebeza nna ke rata go Groover
Nko e ketle ke go tshware ka tsa Ma grootman
Vandag ke go betha ka tsa Ma Grootman

Ba go tseba ge ke fihla ba tshwara fase
Ke Neozar, mfana wa go tšwa Kasi
Brown Dash No Play No Mickey Mouses
Stop there ema nyana re betha HOUSE!
