Psyfer on RISEfm Heart of the Beat with Freak SA

Loading player...
Straight out of eMbalenhle, Mpumalanga, FreakSA (Sifiso Kubheka) is a producer who isn't just making beats—he’s making prayers. Born in 2002, he’s part of a new generation of Deep House architects who are bringing 'soul' back to the forefront. Inspired by the deep, atmospheric textures of Poizen, FreakSA has spent the last 4 years carving out a signature sound that is as much for the dancefloor as it is for the spirit. His EP 'Thank You Lord' was a massive statement of intent, and as he continues to experiment with those rich melodies and infectious grooves, it’s clear that FreakSA is a name the world is going to be hearing a lot more of in 2026.
