Imithwalo is a dance song that will stir something spiritual within your soul

By Edward Tsumele

There is one thing about music and its relationship with people, and that is that If a song is for you, it immediately connects with you the very same moment you hear it for the first time. No over thinking or analyzing, just lending your ears to the song will do the trick.

This is what I felt yesterday, August 16, 2021, when I received this surprise single from a producer called DJ Rooted. And just for the record, I had not heard his sound before, and neither did I know about him before. But the moment I heard this one, I immediately knew that this one is for my ears. I especially love the drums and their rhythm on this single. Though I am not generally a fan of house music, there are exceptions to my taste, especially when it comes to deep house. This single has the capability to stir some spiritual energy in a listener. Now house music in general terms, is simply for those who like to show their dance moves on the dance floor, but there are some certain sub-genres within house music that lend themselves to listening first and then once  is hooked on the ear, the music pushes you to start dancing to it, either by simply steadily moving head in a repetitive fashion in appreciation, or actually hitting the dance floor.

This one falls neatly into that category, and am sure that many will find this singe palatable, If not wholly delicious.to their musical ears. It actually did the trick with my ears, and even stirred something spiritual within me.

And here is the story about this DJ Rooted that you need to know, especially if your musical tastes is inclined towards deep house, this should do for you.
