“South African soul and global karma is the order of play and, as ever, it’s important to me to push up and raise the vibrations of the artists breaking through in our movement,” Shimza tells Apple Music as he introduces his November 2025 mix. “This one actually opens with a track from a Swedish artist, ERIICE, which proves how far the music has spread. OSFUR, UVITA, The Scripture are a trio from South Africa and their track ‘No Way Out’ has worked so well for me lately, as has Karyendasoul’s ‘Olova,’ which moves the mix into the melodic sound that has exploded in 2025.” Shimza puts the spotlight on quality vocals, with no shortage of anthems weaved into his mix: “beatsbyhand and TiMO ODV’s ‘Come Back’ delivers, as does Kreative Nativez and Dr. Feel’s ‘Ungubani,’ translated into English [it means] ‘Who Are You?’ It’s a true anthem now—the reaction is always huge and will be for a long time to come. “Wrapping up this month is Butch and Nic Fanciulli’s ‘I Want You.’ Afrokillerz did their own bootleg mix, and I get asked all the time what it is whenever I play it, so now you know!”
