  • Afrique Essence

    Duo, Pianists and music producers, Rustenburg.


    Afrique Essence was formed in Pretoria in 2010 by musicians/producers Karabo 'KRB' Dibodu and Tshegofatso 'Dee Delux' Didibeng. It was later discovered by Chymamusiq in 2013.

    The duo crossed paths earlier in 2003 when they attended the same school of music studying jazz. Both studied piano as their first instrument.

    Individually the guys have always had a love for music production, and each has earned their right to be considered certified producers, experimenting with multiple genres from Motswako/ Hip Hop to Kwaito, Gospel to Afro pop and Afro-Jazz.

    Pursuing individual interests after music school, it was not until early 2010 that the two met up again and decided to coin Afrique Essence, a brand that would be focused at creating a unique sound of dance music. Moving away from just playing in live bands and mainstream Jazz standards, the two started exercising their abilities as producers. They started incorporating their background in Jazz, into their music, and added a touch of Soul to create a sound that would be their signature. Their sound has won many hearts, appreciated by music lovers in general not just house heads.

    The sound of Afrique Essence is not necessarily complex, it's easy on the ear, it has that unmistakable Jazzy Soul to it, it's mellow and rich.

    Both KRB and Dee Delux work together on production. "either one of us can come up with the concept of a song, but in the end we both tackle it, we have good understanding. Naturally we see some things differently a lot of times but it always works out."

    On performance KRB handles the decks while Dee Delux is on keys adding live elements to their performance. "When we play our original music we add a special treat with Dee Delux live on keys". At times they explore using spontaneous ideas on other well known songs.

    The philosophy behind the sound of Afrique Essence is simple-Good Music. This duo is a welcome addition to SA's house music culture. Look out for them through Chymamusiq Records.
