Chronicle Deep is the Apple Music latest Isgubhu cover artist

Chronicle Deep (actual name Thabo Matloang), a South African house DJ and producer, has been named the next Isgubhu cover star by Apple Music.

“I think South African House Music is at its pinnacle right now,” Chronicle tells Apple Music. “At this time in the continent, house music has the most interesting sound.” This music is reaching a global audience, and my Isgubhu Apple Music playlist reflects that.”

Chronicle Deep, who was born and raised in the Free State town of QwaQwa, rose quickly through the ranks of South Africa’s electronic music elite, writing for Godfathers of Deep House and creating remixes and reworks for Kid Fonque’s tastemaking label, Stay True Sounds.

‘Light (2023)’, his highly anticipated debut album, is an exploration of the intersection between deep house, Afro house, and techno, rooted in his versatility and rhythmic composition and amplified by groove-rooted collaborations with Don Scott on “Africana” and Botswanan songstress Kali Mija on ‘Strings of my Guitar’ (2023).

Chronicle Deep has also prepared a unique Isgubhu playlist, which has a selection of house music tracks that have had the most impact on his artistic path, to commemorate his inclusion.

Isgubhu also has a playlist called Spotlight On, which focuses on boutique labels like Soul Candi, House Afrika, Stay True Sounds, and Uganda’s Hakuna Kulala & Nyege Nyege Tapes, and Isgubhu Voices, which focuses on the best Dance and Electronic music with vocals.

Isgubhu is only available on Apple Music.
