Sequence Series

There’s a certain weight that comes with trying to process life while everything around you keeps moving. This episode was recorded during a period where change, uncertainty, pressure, growth, and reflection all seemed to arrive at the same time. In many ways, it mirrors the current state of everyday South African life, people navigating rising costs, shifting routines, emotional fatigue, ambition...

There’s a certain familiarity that comes with time — a feeling that some things don’t arrive as new, but return in different forms. This episode sits in that space. Built on selections that feel both known and undiscovered, the journey leans into the idea that not everything needs to be reinvented to be experienced differently. Sometimes it’s in the sequencing, the patience, and the context where...

After some time away from releasing, this episode felt right to return with. Recorded in one sitting, then revisited with distance — judged as if it belonged to someone else. What remained was respect: for the selection, the patience, and the intention behind it. Inspired by years of listening, learning, and unlearning, this mix is a quiet nod to influences that shaped my ear from as far back as 2...

Archives Part 2…as I promised another chapter from the past unearthed from the crates of 2012. 59 minutes of raw, unpolished sound — a mix that wasn’t meant for the world, but for discovery. Each track selected by instinct, each transition a moment captured in time. This mix, like Part 1, is a message from an earlier self. A glimpse of where the journey started, the frequencies that shaped my path...

Before In Sequence… before the episodes… there was this. Back in 2012, I was chasing visions that felt bigger than me. I remember putting together a 36-minute demo, meant for Skindeep at BBB Music. I was laser focused with my mixing and timing…probably rehearsed twice before finally recording it. May 9, 2013 — I uploaded it to SoundCloud, not knowing who would ever listen. It was more than just a...

Yo, welcome back to another episode of In Sequence. I’m your host, SK Koki N. This one right here… is called ‘Because I Can.’ No deep explanation—just a reminder to move with purpose, trust your instincts, and do what feels right… because you can. So wherever you’re listening from—Joburg taxis, Cape Town coffee shops, or late night drives—this one’s for the ones who move unapologetically. Let’s lo...

Shane started collecting music in primary school. Both parents were musicians so music was constantly playing at home. Record collecting started in 1985, R&B, Smooth Jazz, Disco & 12 inch Singles. In 1991 he landed a residency at a Night club in Downtown Jozi called Harlem Shuffle. The first taste of a big crowd moving to his every beat. Life took a different turn in the following years with Shane...

There’s something deeply special about vinyl records — the warmth, the crackle, the tactile connection to music that digital just can’t replicate. But I have to say: I really hate written records. What do I mean by that? Well, a record is more than just a physical object — it’s a piece of art, a collector’s treasure, a carrier of sound and story. So why do some people write or mark their names on...

**Mahal (Japan, RHR/ Deep Explorer/ Inner Shift) Interview** @SK: Hi Mahal hope you well, welcome to In Sequence Series. We are very privileged to have you here and a great honor to have and hear from you about your music. Firstly could you tell us about yourself and the music, because you produce some great deep house.. when and how did you realize you have this love for production? @Mahal: My na...

Exclusive mix by Moliti 'Double Flexx' and a short interview.

this isn’t just a mix. It’s a reflection. A mood. A full hour of raw, unfiltered house music, told from the vinyl lover’s point of view. This isn’t polished perfection. It’s honest. Imperfect. It crackles, it breathes… and it takes risks. Every track feels handpicked — like flipping through a personal record collection at midnight. It’s deep house, yes — but it’s also deeply "felt". There’s no hid...

Recorded before the world paused during the pandemic, but released at a time when uncertainty became part of daily life, this episode carries a very personal meaning. As global events unfolded and it felt like no one truly had the answers, I found myself retreating into my own space — a man cave, a quiet environment where reflection replaced routine. “Figure Things Yourself” was born from that mom...

"The one who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. Those who walk alone are likely to find themselves in places no one has ever been before." We spend the majority of our adolescent lives trying desperately not to be different. No one has ever been picked on for being too normal or not being different enough. We would beg our parents to buy us the same clothes little Thabang...

This mix started with a gig that never happened. I was booked to play in Braamfontein — a gig called *Supreme Sessions.* It was meant to be my return to the crowd… spinning vinyl under the open sky again. I had the itch — that deep craving for connection, for groove, for movement. But the show didn’t go on. Unforeseen circumstances pulled it out from under us — the kind promoters never plan for, b...

On the week of compiling this episode, a special one to me. It was a period i felt i was being away from my hometown for much too longer, flashbacks and wonderful musical memories kept haunting me. This resulted in me visiting home and seeing the people that i cared about, and met a friend i hadnt seen then for more than 5yrs Paballo Mefolo. The time we spent together was so short but felt more th...

It is a fundamental dilemma of humanity: we are constantly lookinf for more (be it success, hapiness, meaning or self-realization) and yet at the same time we have an infinite fear of change. We want the safety of the familiar and at the same time, we are curious about the unknown. Our inner longing for personal development cannot be satisfied in our comfort zone. if we want to learn something new...

Choosing to spend time doing things by yourself can have mental, emotional and social benefits but the key to reaping those positive rewards comes from choosing to spend time alone. In a culture where we often confuse being alone for loneliness, the ability to appreciate time by ourselves prevents us from processing the experience as a negative thing. In fact, getting better at identifying moments...

this isn’t just a mix—it’s a memory. It’s a feeling. A reflection of a place that gave me two unforgettable years. Potchefstroom had this incredible balance. You could be outgoing, hit the clubs, get lost in the energy… or you could slow it all down and vibe in the townships of Ikageng. And the people—man, the people—were beautiful. Warm. Real. I met some of the best people there. People who are s...

In today’s culture of opportunism and ambition, In Sequence exists as a space where the art of collecting and storytelling through records is preserved. The series reflects the rawness of house music, unfiltered mixes built from records ranging from timeless classics to newer discoveries. There is no fixed formula, only the courage to take risks and express emotion through carefully crafted transi...
