Kid Fonque & Sio
Rekindled

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Defected Records presents a series of extra special collaborative releases Together, integrating talent from the label’s storied past and the stars of its future, as Kid Fonque joins forces with Sio for ‘Rekindled’. Both pioneers of South Africa’s deep house and neo-soul scenes in their own right, producer, DJ, and label boss Allan Nicoll aka Kid Fonque’s relationship with Johannesburg storyteller Sio continues to go from strength to strength - signposted by numerous Stay True Sounds collaborations including ‘Heartbeat’, ‘In Love’ and ‘Soulfully Broken’. The multi-faceted artist and vocalist Sio also released numerous singles as a solo artist approaching her fifth full LP, Sarang / 사랑, which landed on STY TRU BTS in May 2024. ‘Rekindled’ sees the good friends come together again for an alluring dose of Afro House on Defected, with the track holding a level of expertise only possible from two champions of the genre; Sio’s masterful lyricism weaves around Kid Fonque’s shuffling Afro rhythms to create an expressive and hypnotic work of art for the Together series.
