Hear the lion roar, as Rex Stax unites with Zulu super star vocalist Lizwi!
Lizwi, one of South Africa's most recognizable voices, brings her powerful emotional depth and signature storytelling to "Lion". German afro house producer Rex Stax is known for his acclaimed collaborations with Idd Aziz, Stevo Atambire, and Mr. Vegas. On "Lion" Lizwi's soulful, yet powerful, spiritual voice, thunders over Rex Stax' hard hitting rhythms, in a perfect blend on this afro tech killer!
On "the flip", Rex Stax drops another Afro-tech bomb with "Nafira" — a hard-hitting gem that's not here to play nice. A haunting tribal vocal summons the dance floor into the heart of the jungle, where the rhythm rules and no one gets out unchanged.
Two remixes expand the journey: Sarab & Hunter (TN) infuse Lion with deep, driving grooves shaped by their North African roots and international club presence. Sergey Masterov, a Moscow-based producer and co-founder of Louma label, delivers a remix layered with intricate textures and melodic depth, showcasing his technical mastery and innovative sound design.
To complete the release, Rex Stax unveils an exclusive solo track, Me Roddav — a hypnotic journey that blends tribal percussion, atmospheric soundscapes, and his unmistakable Afro–Tribal energy.
With Lion, IZIKI curates a collection that honors tradition while pushing Afro House forward, uniting voices and producers from Africa, Europe, and beyond.
"Lion" stands as a celebration of strength, unity, and rhythm — a true reflection of Afro House's spirit and cross-cultural connection.
