Mancinza – Iveni elibomvu ft Onezwa Mchunu

South African music act and soulful vocalist Mancinza teams up with vocal talent Onezwa Mchunu on an intriguing new tune titled “Iveni elibomvu”.

The new tune comes at a time when dance aficionados are seeking for deep and emotive township sounds. While many producers go for high-tempo festival bangers, this duo takes a far soulier route. This slow-burning joint combines deep private-school piano with gritty voice narrative.

The sound engineer creates a really rich late nite soundscape with warm rolling log drums and soft jazz keys. And soft percussive shakers and airy synth pads float quietly in the background to keep that nice bounce going. But the beat maintains a vast arrangement, which gives the vocal performances total reign.

Mancinza takes on the opening lines with his trademark silky tone and steady emotive delivery. He glides over the fragile instrumentation to create a peaceful and wonderfully comfortable atmosphere. But his measured cadence grounds the tune in authenticity from his first line.

Next, Onezwa Mchunu elevates the song with rich soaring melodies and passionate harmonies. Lyricism is very much about passion, trust and venturing into the deepest depths of love. They transform a simple dance record into an intimate chat with their vocals.
