GoodLuck and soulful vocalist Shamzisto have released their latest single, “Thandiwe.” This enchanting track not only captures the essence of love and connection but also transcends cultural and linguistic barriers, creating a deeply emotional experience for listeners.
The journey to “Thandiwe” began when GoodLuck’s Jules Harding stumbled upon a haunting acapella performance by Shamzisto on social media.
After the video went viral on platforms like Instagram Reels and TikTok, Harding was captivated by the raw emotion in Shamzisto’s voice.
“I had no idea what the song was about when I first heard it, but the melody and the way he sang it just spoke to my soul,”
she recalls.
“I used to play it as a lullaby for my newborn baby Skylar in the first few weeks after she was born. Even though the vocal was so deeply connected and nostalgic, I could imagine a version for the dancefloor. So I chatted to Ben, and we made one!”
Shamzisto echoed Harding’s sentiments, emphasizing the significance of their collaboration.
“What was really special to me was the fact that a lot of people who resonated with the song had no idea what I was singing about. When the opportunity to work with the powerhouse that is GoodLuck presented itself, it was a no-brainer. Two different sounds coming together to create something that truly transcends language and traditional genre boundaries. Who knows? We might have a new sound!”
The powerful combination of Shamzisto’s evocative vocals and GoodLuck’s high-energy electronic sound has made “Thandiwe” one of the duo’s best-streamed songs to date.
The track’s emotional depth and infectious beat have also caught the attention of Chill Your Mind, one of Germany’s premier house music labels, which has prioritized the song for international release.
“Thandiwe” stands out for its ability to resonate on both personal and universal levels. It serves as a love song that brings people together, whether in quiet moments of reflection or on vibrant dancefloors.
The collaboration between GoodLuck and Shamzisto not only showcases their individual talents but also highlights the power of music to forge authentic connections.
As listeners embrace “Thandiwe,” it is clear that this collaboration is set to leave a lasting mark on the global music scene. The magic of this track lies in its ability to transcend boundaries, inviting everyone to experience the deep emotions that come with love and connection.
