Goya Presents Lamentations 2025 (Deep In Melancholy)
Step into the sonic abyss where sorrow and soul collide, Goya MusicMan returns with a beautiful journey through sound. Inspired by personal loss, global uncertainty, and the quiet strength found in solitude. Perfect for introspective late nights, rainy drives, or healing rituals under the moonlight. Soul-stirring transitions that feel like journal entries, rare and alternative cuts that speak louder than words and a masterclass in emotional storytelling through beatcraft.

Goya Presents Soulful Hedonism - The House Music Pedagogue's Philosophy
Soulful Hedonism is a philosophy rooted in the sacred duality of pleasure and purpose, a deep and soulful house doctrine where rhythm is not escape but encounter. It champions the idea that joy on the dancefloor can coexist with introspection, that indulgence in groove is not mindless but mindful. This ethos sees house music as a spiritual pedagogy: each chord progression a memory, each bassline a lesson, each vocal a reminder of our shared humanity. Soulful Hedonism embraces the richness of Black musical heritage, the ritual of repetition, and the radical act of feeling deeply in a world that often...

Goya Presents Deep Songs From The South [2010-2015]
A journey through the soul of South African house music, spanning 29 tracks and the full emotional spectrum of deep house, Deep Songs From The South is more than a mixtape, it’s a love letter to a pivotal era, a personal tribute, and a masterfully curated sonic odyssey. The House Music Pedagogue weaves together a three-hour set that begins with warm, soulful grooves, dives deeper into moody, immersive rhythms mid-set, and then blooms into the rich, drum and horn-laced textures of vibey Afro-jazz in the final hour, an unmistakable precursor to today’s private school amapiano. Draw...

Goya Presents The Return Of The House Music Pedagogue
The Return of The House Music Pedagogue is a 3-hour soulful journey that celebrates the timelessness of house music, blending classics with contemporary sounds. Beginning with two Louie Vega jazzy tracks, the mix slowly transitions into deep, soulful house vibes, with Nutty Nys’ Amahubo initiating the pedagogical tone. The mix features house music pioneers like Kerri Chandler, Eric Kupper, Terry Hunter, DJ Spinna, and John Cutler, alongside remakes of timeless classics, such as Marshall Jefferson’s Move Your Body and Robert Owens' Deep Down. Tracks from South African legends like 60 Hertz & Shane D are highlighted, while new voices Nae...

Goya Presents Sad Departures - An Unexpected Pilgrimage In Jazz
Life is full of transitions, and jazz, in its purest form, mirrors these shifts with delicate nuances. Sad Departures is not just about loss, but also about the beauty found in goodbyes, the wisdom in solitude, and the bittersweet nature of change. It is a musical narrative that pays homage to the deep and often unspoken emotions we experience when we part ways with people, places, or moments in time.

Goya Presents Lamentations [Tenth Anniversary Mix]
When I started working on Goya's Lament for the Deeper Sound, I knew I wanted to create something that was both reflective and rich in emotional depth. For me, music is more than just beats or melodies, it's a language for exploring what lies beneath the surface of human experience. That's why I crafted my "Lamentations" series, to express this deeper side of sound. By blending jazz and funk samples with deep house grooves, I wanted to evoke a sense of emotional reflection that people could connect with on a personal level. The concept of a musical lament...

Goya Presents An Invocation of a Restless Jazz Spirit
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Opening Address to the 1964 Berlin Jazz Festival: God has wrought many things out of oppression. He has endowed his creatures with the capacity to create—and from this capacity has flowed the sweet songs of sorrow and joy that have allowed man to cope with his environment and many different situations. Jazz speaks for life. The Blues tell the story of life's difficulties, and if you think for a moment, you will realize that they take the hardest realities of life and put them into music, only to come out with so...

Goya Presents The Evolution Of Darque [A Tribute Mix]
Darque, born Molapo Malatji in 1992 in the Limpopo province, is a mainstay of South Africa’s Deep House scene. While growing up in the 2000s, Darque was an avid collector of House Music compilations released by South African labels such as Soul Candi and House Afrika and started producing at the age of 13. He entered the mainstream scene through writing and producing Garth and G-Rel’s 2012 song “Inhliziyo Yami” which featured on DeepForestSA's debut compilation album and first EP. Darque became one of the nation’s most sought-after producers and DJs with the arrival of “Ready for the World”, his...

Goya Apresenta Sons Latinos Clássicos
The timing of this upload coincides with the 25 May Africa day celebrations in 2021. Those passionate about African Music can easily relate to any genre from Brazil. This is because of the bond that is shared between Africa and Brazil. In Essence, Brazil forms part of the African Diaspora, and this is due to the Trans-Atlantic slave trade of the past where as part of colonial expansion, former colonialist powers such as Portugal took part in the displacement of African people to the rest of the world. Those who were enslaved in Brazil took their culture with and from...

Goya Presents The Sounds Of Freedom
27 April commemorates the day in 1994 when the first democratic election was held in South Africa. Today, South Africa celebrates Freedom Day to mark the liberation of our country and its people from a long period of colonialism and White minority domination (apartheid). Apartheid 'officially' began in South Africa in 1948, but colonialism and oppression of the African majority had plagued South Africa since 1652. After decades of resistance, a stalemate between the Liberation Movement and the Apartheid government was reached in 1988. The ANC, South African Communist Party (SACP), Pan African Congress (PAC) and other organisations were later unbanned on 2 February 1990, and a...

Goya Presents Memoirs of a Bossa Nova Aficionado
Bossa nova is a genre of Brazilian music, which developed and was popularized in the 1950s and '60s and is today one of the best-known Brazilian music genres world wide. A lyrical fusion of samba and jazz, bossa nova acquired a large following in the 1960s initially among young musicians and college students. The lyrical themes found in bossa nova include women, love, longing, homesickness, nature, and the best of youth. Bossa Nova has at its core a rhythm based on samba and combines the rhythmic patterns and feel originating in former African slave communities based in the Americas...

It has been exactly two months since the House Music community lost one of its best... Phil Asher aka Phlash aka Restless Soul. Restless Soul, his co-production outfit with Luke McCarty, were one of the most prominent remixers of that ten year span between the late 1990s and early 2000s, credited as the “key architects in bridging the gap between broken beat and house music.” His focus has always been quality rather than quantity. I have taken my time to finally put together a tape that is fitting to be tribute to this music aficionado. The mix is desi...

Goya's Ode to the Late Nite Tuff Guy
One of the early pioneers of house and techno in Australia. Based in Adelaide and one of the main players behind Juice Records (Australia) which helped put Australian techno on the map from around 1991. How does that one quote go, about there being no second acts in Australian dance music? Whoever it was didn't know much about Cam Bianchetti, a DJ/producer from Adelaide, Australia's reputedly sleepy "city of churches." In the early '90s, he was making and playing driving, drug-fuelled underground dance music as DJ HMC, inspired as much by Chicago and Detroit as by European...

Amapiano is a style of house music that emerged in South Africa in 2012. Amapiano is a hybrid of deep house, jazz and lounge music characterized by synths, airy pads and wide and percussive basslines. It is distinguished by high pitched piano melodies, Kwaito basslines, low tempo 90s South African house rhythms and percussions from another local subgenre of house known as Bacardi. Although the genre gained popularity in Gauteng, there's a lot of ambiguity concerning its origins. It originates with various accounts of the musical styles in the Johannesburg townships - Soweto, Alexandra, Vosloorus and Katlehong. Because of...

**Jazz** **By: Lewis Porter** **INTRODUCTION ** Jazz music first developed by African Americans around the first decade of the 20th century that has an identifiable history and distinct stylistic evolution. Jazz grew up alongside the blues and popular music, and all these genres overlap in many ways. However, critics generally agree about whether artists fall squarely in one camp or another. **CHARACTERISTICS** Since its beginnings jazz has branched out into so many styles that no single description fits all of them accurately. A few generalizations can be made, however, bearing in...

Charles Darwin and Hannah Arendt would agree to the fact that, historically Uncle Hugh has managed to keep active and relevant by assimilating and collaborating with younger and fresher artists and this has given him a place in the world of musical immortals.

This feature was originally published in The Wire 169 (March 1998). No one who knew him well was surprised when Nigeria's greatest musician Fela Ransome-Kuti changed the first part of his double-barrelled surname to Anikulapo in the mid-1970s. He was just being consistent. Throughout his career, up to that point, Fela had constantly changed his mode of living and transformed the nature of his music. Eventually...
