Episode 71 of Deeper Sounds of Nairobi is a vibrant sonic journey inspired by the eclectic energy of Marseille, France. This week’s mix weaves soulful Afro-house, deep grooves, and pulsating rhythms, spotlighting global and local talent, with a special nod to Kenya’s finest. Kicking off with the infectious We Got Groove by Deep Essentials, the episode sets a soulful tone. Kenyan star Zaituni Wambui shines alongside We Are Nubia on the captivating DND, while Ally Fresh, DJ Mura, and Tina Ardor deliver the electrifying Sumbua, a standout track pulsing with Nairobi’s creative spirit.
