Trigo XL

BIO

TriGo (Trevor Lebogang Letswalo) is a Johannesburg born DJ, producer, and remixer whose deep house journey has been steady and impactful since 2005. From early DJ sets in local clubs to international recognition, TriGo has built a catalogue defined by deep, rhythmic grooves, soul‑infused compositions, and consistent presence in South Africa’s electronic music culture. His work bridges underground dance culture and broader listener engagement, creating a sound both emotive and rhythmically compelling. 

TriGo’s musical foundation is self‑made: he began DJing in 2005 and moved into production by 2008, a progression that enabled him to shape his rhythmic instincts into original tracks. His early breakthrough came through his performances and networking at key DJ competitions, catching the attention of established artists and leading to collaborations and shared stages with international acts like Black Coffee, Dj China, Dj Terrence, Glen Lewis, Culoe De Song, Steve Paradise, Trinidadian Deep, Dave Storm, Chappell, Vinny Da Vinci and many more

In 2009, TriGo co‑founded the influential duo Rol Deep with Philly Mdluli (Phil Soul). Their single Omo Na Wa O! (feat. Dante) achieved notable online and mix‑show traction, earning spots on platforms such as Casamena Radio Hour, Deeper Shades of House, and Smooth Trax, marking a milestone in TriGo’s international exposure. 

TriGo’s discography spans several respected labels including Do It Now Records, Orcha Mzansi, Orcha Records, Soulove, and El Mental Music. His music has been featured on a variety of house compilations:

• TriGo feat. Brian Blaq appeared on Back to Life (Those Boys), Foreal House Sessions Vol. 3 (DJ Miggs), and Deep House Chronicles (Brian Blaq).

• Happiness (TriGo & Brian Blaq ft. Mr. Lee), released through Do It Now Recordings for their 5‑year celebration, landed on Mechanixs of House Vol. 2 and received strong South African radio support with remixes by Those Boys, OddXperienc, and Mr. Deep.

• TriGo feat. Neo Soulsta – I’m Not Perfect featured on 5 Years Of Do It Now Recordings, No Walls Just House by Lady PK & Stigga. 

TriGo feat. T‑Man Xpress – Ashitwi, released on an Orcha Mzansi compilation, brought together vocal emotion and layered production depth, especially through the Coflo remix, which adds dance‑floor energy without losing deep house essence. This track received widespread praise from DJs and listeners:

Jose Marquez: “Yes yes! Good stuff right here, diggin the Coflo mix.”

Rafael Moraes: “Coflo Remix is dope!”

David Montoya: “Coflo does it again! Nice track!”

Saint Evo: “Wow… love this, so emotive and soothing! Takes me on a spiritual journey.”

Stan Zeff: “Both mixes are fire!!”

Ian Friday: “Feeling this.”

Simbad: “Nice 1 — you guys are on fire right now!”

Yogi: “Rocking!”

Recently, TriGo’s single Black Bird Me has reached over 19,000 streams, reflecting sustained listener engagement; this track and its remixes (including TriGo’s own Imposter Remix and others on El Mental Souls Music) showcase his ability to balance soulful textures with danceable deep house. 

His latest projects include The Teaser a multi‑track release available on major streaming platforms and Song For My Father featuring internationally active DJ/producer Trinidadian Deep. Lost Tapes is noted as his most recent release, though independent charting and formal reviews are not publicly available at this time.

Through nearly 20 years of production, remixing, and performances, TriGo remains rooted in the evolution of South African deep house, contributing to a genre that is widely acknowledged as a key part of the country’s electronic music identity with global reach.
