The newest and most popular musical style, amapiano, originated in South Africa in 2012. Synthesizers, light pads, and broad percussive basslines define the music’s deep house, jazz, and lounge fusion style. It is characterized by high-pitched piano melodies, Kwaito basslines, slow-tempo South African house rhythms from the 1990s, and Bacardi percussion from another local house style.
MDU alias TRP and Kabza De Small, who contributed some beautiful sound and cool instrumental plugins to the genre, are the Amapiano music’s pioneers. Amapiano eventually expanded throughout several African nations and the entirety of Europe thanks to the efforts orchestrated by South Africa’s most well-known DJ, DJ Maphorisa.
