Summer 2010 albums and artists to get.

With summer upon us, i think it's only fair that I offer you a glimpse of what to look for this coming festive and besides I know that in this day and age, every cent counts so I'm going to give you a selection of worthwhile album and artists to get.

House

1. Soul Candi Session 5
First up Harael Salkow and his brilliant team have released another monster of an album or shall I say, albums. Soul Candi session 5 has 5 cd's in a pack all individually packed and given a different titled, giving every type of dance music fanatic a taste of good house music. This albums caters for deep house fanatics to commercial house lovers and even take you on a memory lane with La Dolce Vita Memories by Harael Salkow. This album features Euphonik, Crazy White Boy, Clive Bean, Harael Salkow
On the flip, this is the last Soul Candi Session released and the sequal shall be no more.

2. Proffesor: University of Kalawa
Heyi Heyi Jezebel/ Heyi Heyi Jezebel...I'm sure by now most of you know the Jezebel off by heart(Pity to however is named Jezebel). Well Professor has released a solo album which already has 3 blazing hot on the YFM playlist and with another on the way. Keep listening. Heyi Heyi Jezebel/ Heyi Heyi Jezebel

3. Dj Claude: Stereo Candi 4
Dj Claude one of Soul Candi's longest serving house dj has released a stereo candi 4, however unfortunately unlike his previous release stereo candi 3 which was double disc, stereo candi is a single that packs up enough soulful and deep house jams to get any hardcore house lover dancing. This compilation is best listened to during sundowners just before a night out or on a sunday afternoon chilling with friends.

4. Tumelo: Arise and Shine
YFM's very own technical producer Tumelo has just dropped a blazing hot album which is a 100% full-proof South Africa. Having worked with Black Coffee(Guiness Book of record holder), one can only start t imagine what kind of production and tracks to expect. Well, if you have been listening to YFM then you'd know tracks such as My Confessions, Arise and Shine, Release your Soul, need i say more?

5. Zakes Bantwini: Love, Light and Music
No doubt Zakes Bantwini's album is a definite must have. Last year, he gave us Juju alongside Black Coffee which was Bananas(As Siz would say) and now his house debut alsbum packs nothing but hot tunes which track such as Bum Bum, Wasting my time playlisted on YFM. A track to watch out for this summer is titled 'Summer'( i know it sounds a bit cliched) and the Abicah Soul's Remix of Wasting My Time.


Hip Hop

I had the opportunity of asking Siz(one half of Siz n Scoop) to give me his top 5 local selection of dope artists to look out for this summer. In no particular order, I give you:


L-Tido: All or Nothing

Aka

Red Button

Kid X

Hydro

Ras


Take my advise(including Siz's) and get these, you won't regret it
