Eskhaleni Party

Released

DJ Cleo is one of the true survivors of South African dance music, and prolific to boot. On this 2025 album, two decades on from his solo production debut, he’s kept the raw energy of his early kwaito and house tunes, while keeping up with the sophistication of the amapiano sound he helped birth. Into the mix he throws amapiano bass, pop, gospel, a little techno and more – but they all sound very happy partying together.
