Thakzin hosted a guest show on 18 July 2025. Thakzin has been played on NTS shows including Charisse C, with The Magnificent Dance first played on 25 February 2023.

Widely regarded as one of the most innovative South African producers of his generation, Thakzin (born Thabang) has become a defining force in the global rise of African electronic music. His breakthrough 2022 single The Magnificent Dance sparked the emergence of 3Step, a hybrid of Amapiano, Deep House, and Afro-Electronic sounds, cementing his reputation as both pioneer and torchbearer of a new cultural movement.

Supported by icons such as Black Coffee, Louie Vega, Keinemusik, and Laurent Garnier, his music has resonated across continents, from BBC Radio airplay (Benji B, Gilles Peterson, Pete Tong) to festival stages worldwide: from Ultra, Spring Fiesta, Rocking the Daisies, Bushfire, and Kunye in Africa to Fabric, Piano People in the Park, and AmaFest in the UK; ADE, Montreux Jazz Festival, and Djoon in Europe; and as far afield as China, Thailand, Canada, Colombia, La Réunion, and the Caribbean.
