With its glittering atmospheres, downtempo beats, and gorgeous vocals soaring above a thick synth bassline, “Nomalizo” has rightly become a cult classic. Originally released in South Africa in 1983, the album contains six other lushly produced pop songs: “Down by The River” has a similar slow, seductive beat to “Nomalizo,” conjuring charming forest atmospheres with its synths and gentle percussion, while other tracks move between disco, boogie, and soul. It’s a sunny, joyous, and quintessentially South African record.
