Considered by many as one of the most promising & versatile Electronic South African producers, THAKZIN counts his peers Shimza, Themba or Black Coffee as some of his most prominent ambassadors. His genre-bending universal sound is fusing forward-thinking South African genres with the roots of a wider African culture and Urban and electronic influences from around the world. 

Born of a South African & Mozambican family of musicians, THAKZIN is a contemplative life observer who discovered djing in his early teenage years & dived into the culture to become the versatile & uplifting DJ he is today. In 2010, he started to learn music production, drawing a long path of experimentation, and developing the musicality & versatility of his sound signature. Inspired by the Sangoma’s Zulu Traditional Healers (based on drum rituals to heal physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually), THAKZIN has a profound belief in the healing power of music and the virtues of spiritual elevation & positive energy through the universality of dancing.
