KaySoul
KaySoul is a House DJ/record producer from Johannesburg, South Africa. He began making music in the year 2010 till present. He draws inspiration from Larry Heard aka Mr. Fingers and also he is inspired by everything around him. Hailing from Kwa-Thema, Springs in the East Rand of Johannesburg. Growing up with the sounds of house, bubble gum and kwaito on the radio at home and in the neighborhood, he quickly got into taping songs and making compilations of music that really moved him - just so he could listen again. Not bad for a kid who was still in his 5th grade of primary school. As a youngster, he was always one for moving to his own beat: banging anything he could find to create his own rhythms. In 2010, he was introduced to FL Studio 8 by a friend who showed him around using the programme and as they say, the rest is history. In 2018, he won best "Male" and "Remixer" categories at the 2018 Dance Music South Africa. KaySoul released an EP in 2019 "The Prosimians" on Tooman Records from Germany. This EP received support from 5 Magazine, International DJ Mag, 5FM, Vuzu TV Hit Refresh. His music has been supported by the likes of Vinny Da Vinci, Rocco, Ralf Gum, Kid Fonque, Kai Alce, Ame, Fred Everything, Laurient Garnier, Mr. Scruff, Jazzanova, Robert Owens, Jullian Gomes, Kevin Yost, Josh Wink, Atjazz, Glenn Underground, Felipe Gordon, Richie Hawtin, Lay-Far, Sean McCabe, Milton Jackson, Hugo LX, Crackazat. In February 2022, he released an EP "Frequency Rays of One Cosmic" on Dirt Crew Recordings which got a support from DJ Mag and Mixmag and he did an interview with GQ South Africa about his music. In March 2022, he released another EP (vinyl/digital) "What Is Blackness" which came out on Shall Not Fade and it garnered support from Resident Advisor. In April 2022, he released an EP "The World's Going Crazy" on Apparel Music.
