KILIMANJARO drops new offering, ‘The Seeker’
London-based Zambian/Scottish DJ & producer KILIMANJARO shares his brand new single, ‘The Seeker’.
Built around the the afro-centric percussive energy KILIMANJARO is known for, ‘The Seeker’ overflows with dark, atmospheric synth patterns interspersed with his hypnotic vocals. ‘The Seeker’ follows his collaboration ‘No Bad Vibes’ with Jazzy, which is growing in popularity having just broken into the Top 10 of Apple Music’s dance chart and is making an impact across Spotify, Apple Music and Shazam. Prior to this KILIMANJARO dropped his two-track project with Melé called YORUBA RIDDIM EP this summer, which gained support from peers such as Bonobo and Desiree.
Having a long and storied background in music, KILIMANJARO’s roots can be found playing in bands across Scotland and later pivoting to performing DJ sets within the country’s renowned clubbing landscape. After years DJing the Scottish circuit in Glasgow and Edinburgh, KILIMANJARO moved down to London to establish himself and find a footing in a city that’s been leading the way in electronic music for decades. These moments were pivotal for the DJ/producer as he crafted and built his sound. KILIMANJARO then cultivated a loyal following as his name began to resonate and in 2021, he launched KILIMANJARO MUSIC at La Cheetah in Glasgow, which focused on championing black, POC, female and other marginalised artists across the UK, something he continues to do to this day.
KILIMANJARO’s charismatic performance style led to his appearance on DJ Mag and Mixmag streams earlier this year, but it was his Boiler Room set alongside Fred Again.. in 2022 that helped introduce him to a global stage. The set has amassed over 1.5 million views and counting.
Also making an impact on the road, KILIMANJARO played Parklife, Glastonbury, Junction 2 and All Points East, as well as DC-10 and Ushuaia Ibiza on the White Isle and toured key clubs and festivals across Europe consistently earlier this year. He recently completed his debut tour of the USA, followed by his first appearances at Creamfields Argentina and Chile, respectively. To close out a tremendous 2024, KILIMANJARO will perform at Honey Dijon’s House Nation at Drumsheds tonight before ringing in the New Year at The Warehouse Project.
A captivating introduction signalling what’s to come from the Zambian/Scottish DJ, new single ‘The Seeker’ is out now.
