Major League DJz Team up with Abidoza for 31-Track Amapiano Album ‘Pianochella!’
Major League DJz and Abidoza release a 31-track amapiano album 'Pianochella!' featuring Cassper Nyovest, Riky Rick, Kamo Mphela and a lot more.
South African twin deejays Major League DJz have dropped a new album titled Pianochella! alongside Pretoria-based deejay and producer Abidoza. The title of the project is a play on Coachella and the popular South African subgenre amapiano.
Pianochella! is a 31-track project featuring collaborations with both familiar names and up-and-coming artists. The likes of Cassper Nyovest, Amanda Black, Riky Rick, Senzo Afrika, Holly Rey , Kamo Mphela Mpho Sebina, and Shana all make appearances on the album alongside countless other artists.
<p><em>Pianochella</em> represents the journey into exploring different genres, as Major League travelled across South Africa to attain the right ingredients for the album's soundscape. Each song is different and carries distinct amapiano waxings. The upbeat "Le Plane E'Landile" with frequent collaborator Cassper Nyovest stands out. "Waiting on Myself" featuring Amanda Black and "You Let Me Down" by Shana are heartsore house tracks that will have fans smoothly dancing until the break of dawn.</p>

<p>Originally known for hip-hop productions, Major League have become industry chameleons that know how to stay on-beat with current music trends, and have been hailed as the prime force behind new age kwaito. In 2015, the duo broke through with their kwaito bending hit "Slyza Tsotsi" featuring Cassper Nyovest, Riky Rick and Carpo. Their affiliation with hip-hop/kwaito/amapiano artists Focalistic showed how in-tune they are of current trends.</p><p><div class="dfp_atf-slot" data-not-loaded="true"></div><script type="text/javascript">
