from, to form BlazinHendz
Mahenza revealed that his first album was created using very basic music-making software. “I
don’t know how to explain the production stages of my album Village House Session #1
because all I did was put to down the basic ideas that I had, and worked with the likes of
Gaopalelwe ‘Jerah’ Mothusi and Truscott Toxic Beatz Mmatli, I did use MIDI controllers
and everything was played with a computer mouse. He added that the use of live instruments in a
song is also very important, giving a track that final magic touch and bringing it to life.

The entire project was published and released in 2013 on various platforms and may also be purchased on iTunes, Google Play, Amazon just to name a few
