Afro Deep House specialist Sef Kombo is the latest talent to be signed to the 1Xtra Radio network’s groundbreaking Xtra Talent roster.
Sef has been at the forefront of the new afro house scene supporting artists including Black Coffee & Black Motion plus hosting his own hugely successful event, Til Two, for the last four years. Til Two now stands out as the capital’s freshest spot for discerning music lovers regularly reaching a capacity and locking people out of their events – a big statement on a Wednesday night.
The London based DJ caught the ear of station scouts with his cutting edge selection on a series of guest appearances on Rinse FM & Kiss FM plus his weekly show on Bang Radio. Sef will appear on 1Xtra guest hosting part of DJ Edu’s Destination Africa show showcasing the hottest deep, soulful and underground sounds from the continent including Afrobeats, Azonto, Hip Hop and RnB every Sunday night between 1-2am.
Sef Kombo says “I’m not only excited to be a part of 1xtra for the month of March but so excited to bring the very best talent from South Africa and surrounding countries house flavour to the network, it’s a platform I think it deserves…. The UK needs to hear it!”
Sef’s signing to Xtra Talent further cements his place in the scene reflects a growing demand for the afro house genre.
Sef Kombo’s first show commences on Sunday 3rd March
