Suzy Eises adds a touch of saxophone on Gazza’s ‘Get It On’

Saxophonist Suzy Eises has teamed up with Gazza on his summer jam ‘Get It On’, a track that infuses kwaito with jazz.

“I think it’s great that we can bring two different genres together. Even better is that we can bring two different worlds together. I love that about music. The way I see it, music knows no discrimination, race, gender or hate,” Eises says.

The upbeat ‘Get It On’ is all about having a good time with the people you love, and the recording process stayed true to the theme.

“We had a great time in studio celebrating this song and what it’s about to become,” says Eises.

After a spontaneous introduction, Gazza asked Eises to join him in the studio, as he had envisioned featuring her saxophone on the track. The next day, Eises was in the studio for less than two hours to record. Like all great collaborations, the music flowed together smoothly and seamlessly.

Because of the artists’ great chemistry, Eises plans to work with Gazza again in the near future. As for working on other kwaito tracks, Eises enjoys the challenge of stepping outside of the typical jazz genre and has also worked with popular duo Cool Under Pressure on a track called ‘Atata’ which can be heard on YouTube.

The song ‘Get It On’ will be released later this year on Gazza’s upcoming album ‘Pumumu’, the first Namibian album that will be distributed by Universal.

“I have used instrumentalists before in my music and wanted to bring Suzy on board because I wanted to merge the instrumental touch with electronic music,” Gazza says. Eises’ fans are already responding well to a sneak peak of the song on her Instagram and Facebook page.
