VUMAALA

IG | SPOTIFY

After years crafting sonic landscapes for global icons Beyoncé, Clean Bandit, Cynthia Erivo and South African heavyweights like Manana, Will Linley, Shekinah, and Ami Faku, Grammy-nominated producer Bubele Booi is stepping out from the shadows. Vumaala is his own world: lush cinematic orchestration colliding with rattling drums rooted in the rich culture of South African dance music - afrohouse, 3-step, gqom. Expect the unexpected. Gospel swells. Indie folk whispers. Genre boundaries bent in ways you haven’t heard before. Sound with soul and soil beneath it. Vumaala’s debut single “Show Me” received BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Tune of the Week and is on the official 1Xtra playlist as of March 2026.
