Soweto duo soul servers have been receiving a lot of international attention after releasing their debut album Nice and Easty.
The group which compromises of Zanele Goqo and Motlalepule Thabane's singles Ziyabuya Emzansi and Nice Easy were released by Universal music.
Then “Ziyabuya Emzansi” was also remixed by ace Toronto DJ and producer Phil Marwood - known for his House, Minimal and Deep Grooves work, as well as his collaborations with hip-hop artists.
Soon after, the album was heard by French producer Pierre Jaubert, aka Berjot, best known for discovering the pioneering Lafayette Afro-Rock Band in the 1970s. Jaubert was so impressed with Zanele’s and Motlalepule’s vocal abilities that he immediately decided to collaborate with them on his next album (soon to be released).
The album producers are Floyd Nceba Sizani (a.ka. Da Great) and George Lusenga, working under the banner of “One Wish Entertainment.” Floyd was born in Pimville, Soweto and grew up in Winterveldt North of Pretoria. His first musical inspiration was his father, who used to sing to him and even recorded songs for him on a small tape recorder. Later his own vocal talents were discovered when he joined his school choir. As a teenager in the mid-90s, Floyd teamed up with Wiseman Shongwe one of the members of the well-known Pretoria Gospel group Exodus and, as the “Wise Guys”, they performed numerous live shows around Pretoria, winning the first round of the 1995 Shell Road to fame talent search. Inspired by the newly-emerging Kwaito sound, Floyd started making demos and submitting them to various record companies, gaining the attention of Mack Mashabane who was then with Creative Kingdom. The group changed its name to Abolova (and was joined by a new member, Thabo Sebola), and released several albums including songs such as Verstaan, Phinda Mzala, Shelela and others that received a reasonable amount of airplay. The group shared the stage with B.O.P, Arthur, Revolution, Bongo Maffin and others. In 2004 he opened his own little studio and decided to concentrate on the production side of the business.
