Namibian producer and DJ Gina Jeanz has released her new percussion-led afrohouse track, ‘Emoko’, out now via Temper Tone. The track is part of her highly anticipated upcoming EP ‘Lifetime In A Dance’, set for release on December 13th. ‘Emoko’ brings a loopy afrohouse DJ tool that combines deep, organic drums with hypnotic vocals and subtle sound design, creating an inescapable and danceable rhythm for the dancefloor.
‘Emoko’ is just one of four tracks on Gina’s forthcoming EP, which promises to be a genre-blending experience, traversing afrohouse, afrotech, and disco house. Known for her genre-bending sets, Gina Jeanz infuses her productions with influences from Afro House, electronica, and the Namibian diaspora, offering a unique soundscape that has garnered international attention.
Following her successful September single ‘Light My Fire’, which gained airtime on BBC Radio 1 and KISS, Gina dropped the exclusive track ‘Step 2 House’ on Bandcamp in November, blending afrohouse’s three-step genre with house. Earlier this year, Manqo remixed her track ‘Take Me’, which received strong support from in-demand acts like Keinemusik.
Gina’s recent success includes performing at ADE in October alongside names such as Killamanjaro, VANCO, and Damian Lazarus, as well as hosting a DJ workshop with Pioneer DJ. In July, she supported South African afrotech icon Shimza at his Cercle event at the Citadel de Sisteron in France. Her dedication to her craft has not only won her international gigs but also earned her features in notable media, including Beatport, BBC 1xtra, and DJ Mag.
