DJ Tunez teams up with Terry Apala on “Apala Groove,” a record that draws from the rich Nigerian Apala tradition while giving the sound a contemporary touch.
The collaboration brings together DJ Tunez’s production approach and Terry Apala’s unmistakable vocal style. Terry’s deep, rhythmic delivery fits naturally into the song, allowing the influence of traditional Yoruba music to remain a key part of its identity.
Rather than moving too far from its roots, “Apala Groove” keeps the character of Apala music at its core while presenting it in a format suited to today’s listeners. The result is a meeting point between an established Nigerian sound and modern African music.
The record also highlights Terry Apala’s continued role in keeping Apala-inspired music relevant to a new generation, while DJ Tunez adds another culturally rooted collaboration to his growing catalogue.
Listen to DJ Tunez – “Apala Groove” Ft. Terry Apala for a fresh meeting of traditional Apala influences and contemporary Nigerian music.
