OneThabs

OneThabs, Bulawayo born, East London resident, Piano Love DJ and Groove connoisseur. Took a rather complex journey into the world of DJing. During the first pandemic when the world was locked dons and silent, is when he experimented into the DJing foray. It’s during the night time when he would play on Insta Live that friends and strangers encouraged him to push on and having always been interested in music and nightlife, this was the perfect time to practice away from the noise and pressure in a world locked away.

You’ll find him playing a soulful set of Amapiano, heavily influenced in vocals and singalongs that transport you away from the dancefloor into a trance of self enjoyment. His love for house music is where you’ll experience a mixture of deep, Afrohouse and Afrotech sounds influenced by the sounds of Black Coffee and Black Motion that’ll keep you stomping through the dancefloor and night away.

With just over two years under his belt of fully committing to this journey of music, OneThabs has been a resident DJ for Amapiano Funhouse, an event introduced during one of the many pandemic relaxations of era. During the summer period, OneThabs has graced the hottest Amapiano events such as RedRoom in Peckham Audio with an electric set that left revellers in awe. Another highlight of the summer was an amazing B2B with his mentor Golden Lady with a set at No Signal’s Diaspora Dance where the two blew the decks with a hi tempo, nostalgic and new Afrohouse and AfroTech performance.
