Few acts in Afro house have been as consistent as DJ Tomer and Ricardo.
Since linking up in 2019, the NYC-based duo has released over 50 tracks, garnered more than 6.5 million streams, and gained support from notable artists like Black Coffee. Their 2023 debut album ‘Echos’ proved they are more than just club singles; they bring depth and story too.
This month, they return to Connected with ‘Nhliziyo Yami’ alongside South African vocalist and producer Shoba. The title means ‘my heart’ in Zulu, and you can feel it. The track blends rich chords, warm vocals and a spiritual energy made for dancefloors and headphones alike.
For this Hot Picks feature, DJ Tomer and Ricardo share the tracks they keep coming back to, featuring dusty rhythms, signature voodoo vibes, emotional keys, and music that reminds them why they do what they do.
Jimi Jules & Black Coffee - Trippy Yeah
This tune is our favorite at the moment and super dance floor vibes.

DJ Tomer & Ricardo, Jordan Arts - All We Need

Thakzin & Divine Keys - Stick Around
Makes us feel we are back to the old days with a new touch.
From the bold percussion of ‘Maasai Drums’ to the deep groove of ‘Trippy Yeah’ and the emotional weight behind their own ‘All We Need’, DJ Tomer and Ricardo’s selections reflect the soul of Afro house.
There is meaning behind every choice. These are not just tracks for the sake of energy; they connect, they move, they carry memories.
With ‘Nhliziyo Yami’ dropping July 25 on Connected and more to come from their evolving catalogue, now is the time to lock into their sound.
