Kususa

Kususa is a South African Electronic Dance duo formed late 2016 by Joshua Sihle Sokweba and Mncedi Tshicila. They create Electronic Dance Music containing elements of House Music, Afro Beat, Techno and African Music. The duo’s name (pronounced : koo- su- sah), is both a combination of the pair’s stages names and a word which, when roughly translated in a Southern African language of Shona, means “to start over”. Early in 2017, they remixed “De Major - Traveller feat. Lizwi” that went on to be charted Traxsource Top 200 Best Selling Afro House song of 2017, than later compiled by Black Coffee in his Ibiza compilation. The remix’s success continued the following year, seeing it getting licensed by House Music stable gaints Defected Records on their Ibiza 2018 compilation mixed by Sam Divine. Their music catalogue, over the years, is spread throughout labels such as; Get Physical, Cadenza Records, Connected Frontline, Moblack Records, DJOON Experience, Soulistic Music, N.E.O.N Tokyo and their newly formed label Back Noise Music Africa. Early 2021 sees them signing and releasing their single, named “Piccolo” featuring Afro Pop sensation - Sam Opoku, under Armada Music BV’s imprint label Championship Music, setting their stamp as a formidable Electronic Music duo from Africa to the World. Kususa’s accolades include being named Traxsource’s #13 Afro House artist of 2018 and they hold 7 Dance Music Awards - South Africa nomination between 2017 - 2019.
