60 Hertz Project

60 Hertz Project is a live band and musical production team formed in June 2009 in Ga‑Rankuwa, Pretoria, South Africa. The project was founded by Gosiame "BlackJean" Maodi and co‑founded by Siphiwe "SDK" Daniel Kumalo, both serving as the primary composers and authors behind the music created under 60 Hertz Project. Their sound is rooted in Jazzy House, Deep House, Broken Beats, Lounge, Afro House, and Soulful House, driven by a musician and a producer.

Over the years, 60 Hertz Project has showcased their work on major platforms including KZN Music Imbizo 2018, Ekurhuleni Music Festival, North West Jazz Festival, corporate events, year‑end functions, and private weddings. Their music has received national and international airplay on Metro FM, Motsweding FM, Lesedi FM, Vuzu TV, Channel O, and Deeper Shades of House.
The band has collaborated with global artists such as Dolls Combers and FastVisionSoul, releasing standout projects like Mother Earth Calls Italy EP and the #1 chart‑topping Capricorn EP, remixed by Essential I, Ralf GUM, and QB Smith, as well as Tapta Beach EP, remixed by Manoo and Trancemicsoul, featured on compilations by DJ Christos and Ralf GUM.

They have also delivered notable remixes for Jonny Montana, Vick Lavender, Dolls Combers, Mikki Afflick, and others.
Their catalogue spans albums, EPs, singles, and remixes released through respected labels across the USA, UK, Germany, Italy, Brazil, and South Africa, including GOGO Music (Germany), Cabana Records (USA), Basement Art (SA), High on Soul (Chicago), Grooveland Brazil, Daddy Funk Records (New York), Sophisticado (Italy), Camio Recordings, Soul Sun Soul (Brooklyn), Tribe Records (UK), House Garage (New York), and Dolls Combers Records (Italy).
