Blackwhole - 1000 Seconds - The Biggest Record You’ve Never Heard Of

[@moraletooane8980]

First time seeing a promo for a deep house song in ny life

[@wearedeepcuts]

This should be the norm.

[@fatsomots1923]

😂😂😂

[@MUTHANNGAwaTSHITIRINGO]

StayTrue Sounds did that

[@courtneyddp]

I think it’s more about showing respect and honoring the legacy of SA house

[@inv_dj]

I love to see it. Somewhat a Rhythm Roulette for deep house. I think that voice is deep and experimental house music must be more. Some amazing music out there

[@djphiwelive]

I think Mr Cee or Blackwhole as a whole didn't realize how big the tune was .. .

[@tshepofistosbw]

First time I heard this was in 07 when I was doing Grade 5 and ut was always the main theme for SABC 1 adverts ❤The good old days

[@philanimtshali4090]

Memories unlocked, those Mzansi FoSho promos were something else🎉

[@thakgatsomashego777]

Blackwhole-1000 Seconds & Rocco-Memories will forever be top 2 and legendary!

[@TshepoMN]

I was in grade 9 in 2007 when this song came out, I was sooo obsessed with it. I used to play it religiously on my Motorola V360V. It's a timeless classic that deserves to be given this kind of appreciation. Mr Cee/Blackwhole deserve their respect and to be honoured for giving us this tune 👏🏾

[@DeborahNdlovu]

Eish bra don't talk, the error of the Motorola V360 & Samsung E250 day's was so legit❤❤❤. Life was gud without peer pressure & social media.

[@Gemini_Sixx]

Shoutout Mr Cee 🙌🏽🎩🙌🏽 Thank you Kidfonque for the recognition. ✨️🙌🏽💫

[@3.pixelz]

17 years later, still a staple in my house playlist!

[@Ngibsta]

everything about Blackwhole back then was way ahead of its time that whole *Another Level* album was magical

[@siphiwemngomezulu1595]

The whole album of Blackwhole is a classic man, I need it on digital please maan.

[@simzcarlito]

Dankie Mr Cee. Big up Fonque. Blackwhole Stay True

[@lesegokodisang3126]

When they speak about timeless music,this is the perfect song!!!🔥🔥🔥

[@Theso-nj4mf]

The fact that this track still slaps today tells you everything you need to know. Bass to snare to groove. Unmatched. Thanks to this documentary, it’s about to be a good December! Love ❤️

[@Theso-nj4mf]

Someone called out King of the Surface below, 1 of the most underrated tracks purely because it was on the same album as 1000 Seconds.

[@Kuhlekonke02]

One of the best songs I have ever heard

[@rendanimagoro6]

Dude even the remix Queen of the surface was a banger, I'm still mad to whomever stole my laptop at external drive all my house collection gone had the whole album now its very difficult to get it

[@Eyem_slicedeep]

Also "Let Them Go" ahh man 😇🔥

[@MzansiMusiQBase]

Now that one is a killer track

[@anunnakient]

1000 seconds reminds me of my high school days. A true South African Classic🔥

[@sandeen4444]

Whenever I go to a club I always request this song to be played.. I cannot end the night without this song... my all time number 1 track !!!! I always felt like blackwhole were ahead of their time and made music meant for the disco biscuit..ifykyk 😎

[@khensanimashego6671]

What? You request songs ?😂😂😂

[@bayandambatha7081]

First time I heard this track was on my school transport in early 2009. Was doing grade 2 then and this was one of the tracks that introduced me to house music. Great memories!

[@kagomodise4008]

I just finished my last year in primary when this came out, but hadn't heard it until the Christmas break just before 09. I was in Pretoria with my cousins and I thought okay, cool song. Then I heard it everywhere that year and it became one of my golden tracks. Hearing it takes me back. What a time, you just had to be there.

[@st3llarsynergy]

This is an incredibly well-crafted mini documentary about the iconic South African house track "1000 Seconds" by BlackWhole. The various perspectives shared illustrate how innovative and influential this track is, even 17 years later. The production values are excellent, capturing the significance and lasting impact of this seminal record within the local scene.

[@eltonmassingue706]

I listened to this song when I was younger, now I’m 32 years old and one of these days I remembered the song last year and downloaded it, I still listen to it today, I love this sound, what a tune!!! Moz 🇲🇿

[@nkaozaledwaba4102]

I still have this on vinyl 😉, will clean the dust and rejoice with it again

[@KMoss1111]

Great content ! We need more of this!

[@rendanimagoro6]

Keep blessing us with good music

[@mathongolamani8733]

Thank You Mr Fonque for giving these guys another spotlight for recognition. You went as far as creating a mini documentary regarding this Classic Banger. You've done so many remixes within your label but you chose this homemade tune for the documentary. Big ups Bro🙌🙌🙌

[@gino4tune]

I did not know that this was made in South Africa. When it came out, it shaped my teenage years and my love for house music. When I listen to it today, I remember all those crazy nights. Stay True and Kid Fonque is really doing something great sharing it with the world again. This is really a song that was made ahead of its time, and is standing the test of time!

[@brianmoremi7385]

"Legendary song my buddy",,, a true blessing to South African music industry

[@nickmbuyane6550]

Jamming to this on Apple Music right now... You did a thing by uploading this video on the same day as the release of the remixes.

[@stryk1052]

Where can I find the remixes?

[@TebogoMbonani-xo3xk]

Thank you Blackwhole this was needed! 🐐

[@georgencongwane5292]

🎉🎉🎉 what a perfect 👌 track! Still gives me goosebumps

[@sthembisomuroa6651]

I remember the Blackhole came to Wits University in 2008 to promote "1000 seconds" the track. I also thought the track was ahead of its time but I always loved it.It is a timeless track

[@demainruiters2488]

What a BANGER!!!!unique in its own style!!!

[@Gladwin92]

Damn😢the good and sad memories this song brings, it'll forever be a golden classic for the real house heads.🔥🔥🔥

[@laymansimlo]

Shout out to the genius that is Mogrigo, also the King Roc(RIP Martin Dawson) was the closest perfect remix. Looking forward to the STS Jullian Gomes remix.

[@phelelanimkhize4522]

One of the greatest tracks to come out of SA

[@laraj777]

Love Kid Fonque, looking forward! Ready to feel deep catharsis again!☀️🌍🙌 My home repairs tomorrow won't be so boring.✌️

[@koky2bullx14]

Batswana students were playing this jam in Malaysian clubs and parties pre world cup. We spread the sound of the diaspora, Rekorder 7.2, Vabanque (stimming remix).. such jams got me into Ableton curtesy of Azania.

[@BandileNdamse]

Even today 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Karabo.Mathaba]

The definition of inumba. I was young when it came out but my uncles use to play this in their stance cars (VR6 , velocity golf, cara cara & bimmer 525 ) at the time at braai’s and it was at the time soundtrack to our lives.

[@matthewjulius4451]

The one song I’ve carried with me on my house journey 🙌🏽 nothing beats the feeling of playing this song for someone who has never heard it before. S/o to the legend of house Blackwhole 🫶🏽

[@bapelagift9829]

Im ready for the rematch with 1000 seconds. I was tooo young when it first came out. 🥳

[@milerh]

Me and you both

[@milerh]

😂🎉

[@tebogohamese4087]

The way things move so fast these days it's important to stay true. S/O to all the legends that gave us iconic memories through sound and dance. S/O to Black Hole for giving us 1000s. ❤

[@MichaelErasmus-on5yb]

This track still brings great joy to my soul.

[@ndumisofuze_rsa8828]

We still need more of Blackwhole i believe in you StayTrueSounds ❤❤❤

[@MaThandos1431]

🔥🔥😭😭 My Father has this classic in plastic fell in love with it since day one

[@TheBhuts]

Please ask him if he is not selling it?

[@leonorancube9854]

Vinyl u mean

[@ThabsGO]

Mr Cee, I was in Braam in '08 blackWhole was everywhere

[@inv_dj]

Touch the sky after this jam 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@joseaywav]

For the past 8 years, I've been listening to this tune at least 4 times, every 2 months

[@rootofgreatness.]

Me too.

[@qondiwe]

Yooooooooo! That Another Level album was pure FUEGO!!!😭😭 Limitations = BANGER! Midday Sermon = Banger! They truly were on some other level ish! Dankie Blackwhole! KID FONQUE please do a segment like this on DJ Kent's 'Sunday Showers'

[@rootofgreatness.]

Shout out to Blackwhole!! It's hard to find classic records like this one. 17 years and people are still respecting the craft. This is a message to us, new age producers. Do something that is distinct. I am working on that.

[@Mezz803]

Maaaaaan🔥, the memories of dancing to this song ngoku zasikhula 🙌🏾. I'm loving the mini doc concept. Keep them coming Mr. Fonque 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@SiphoMoyo]

I was in my first year of Varsity when this song dropped. My gosh. The memories of Games Room parties at the University of Fort Hare East London Campus. This song used to drive the soccer team insane. 2007 was just a great year for SA House music

[@randallbantom5431]

Best of the best sound. A classic of the classics

[@jacobmohomutsi5385]

This is definitely a classic ❤

[@georgemasina5146]

All time favourite! A timeless classic!

[@WebsterMLetso]

Taking me back to the early days in my house journey 🙌🏾✨

[@MrRichyRich213]

This song doesn't need a remix. Nothing will stand up to original.

[@DeborahNdlovu]

One of the best produced tracks of all time❤🎉

[@mooketsi1]

Classic, with "Keep Me"

[@zerotradings5062]

Crazy enough, I played it on Sat. Yes it's my all time fave, I'm an Afro Tech DJ, but last sat I had a day set, obviously for an afro dj, you defs goin lay 1000 seconds on a deep set. 🔥🔥

[@cliffordlittle2555]

Big Ups Fonque!!!!!!!

[@karmadogreen]

Damn!! Bro i was in my early 20's just an upcoming dj and kwaito house from Durban's Finest, Cleo, Dj Sbu etc was banging...and came this god sent masterpiece 🙌🏾, i couldn't dance an inch back then but i could move to this track and this track only 🔥🔥

[@creative_soul-recolo]

A proper South African tjoon that was a nationwide HIT. No remix of it will ever surpass THE ORIGINAL. So much so that SABC 1 used it to promote upcoming bashes, events Reminds me of my childhood especially in the time of Broken Beat, Bacardi with the likes of DJ Cleo, Revolution and Oskido and this song stood OUT. This SHOWS OUR POTENTIAL AND GREATNESS THAT South African producers can conjure up, EFFORTLESS.

[@Mulifhedzi]

First had this song on radio, on oskidos show. I recorded it on tape. 😭

[@mondlibooi2004]

That song is so timeless!😤😤😤😤

[@xolanimkhonto4275]

That track brings back a lot of memories. Used to play it nonstop, not to forget King of the surface 🔥 which was another banger

[@Healingson]

This song has an impact on anyone listening to it for the first time, it’s too much bafwethu 🔥

[@2hoursleep]

This is still one of my fav tracks to date❤

[@kevinlenyatsa3648]

King of the surface slapped in the streets

[@thendopt]

Oh man what a track! Takes me back to PTA!

[@karabokingkayrbee]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Perfect timing Few Days to December

[@sosunni.]

this is iconic

[@Rorimulaudzi]

Please put out 'Same' Another Blackwhole classic

[@mathielankululeko6574]

U a divha music

[@georgemofokeng8498]

Mr Cee Blackwhole back to music 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥

[@KonaNTheBarbarian-i7t]

The music that gave us hope for the future.

[@yangagaqa9208]

I used to hear the song on the radio everytime after coming from school, I was 8 years old then

[@peterbaatjes8952]

I still have the cd 😊 from when it was released the 1st time....

[@thamsanqathamera]

Timeless Tune🔥👌🏽

[@phiyelokhanye9032]

As Lovers❤ of Deep House Music we are happy to see something like this

[@ThabsGO]

I don't know why they keep on saying it was the Kwaito era. 2007 was a year of house compilations and this one was SA made production which rocked hard. Kwaito was already dead by then we either rocked Mbuso, Oskido, Glenn etc. Blackwhole showed them flames

[@lingedilinga2138]

I did radio a few years ago this was my bed music. What a record!

[@yaseengaffoor]

Blackwhole - Play is my top 3 house songs of all time. Brings back so many memories and it’s only on SoundCloud 😢

[@bennymathobela9680]

That's my tune right there ❤

[@darren-leighadams2177]

That was my song yoh, the amount of loafers I ran through jiving to that song... Ay my Majivan days...WHAT A TRACK!!!

[@sekgupimoleme9024]

what a banger!

[@kurhula]

Washa, here we go, ruu!!

[@camerondarries1251]

Bro i still bang this track everyday of my life. This track still surprises many.

[@pmlounge_925]

Remembered back around 2007, in my primary days we enjoyed this Joint me and the gents even the non deep house lovers - a gem for days 💎

[@stanleyhood]

🔥🔥🔥

[@DevotionMusicX]

Play these track in your time slot and thank me later . 3:02

[@LEIRBAG.M]

A true classic.

[@BrionneOlsen]

Wait! You signed the song? Wow, Kid Fonque 👏🏼

[@chadwinerasmus5863]

What a Vibe ❤

[@S.P.H.E]

Sbonge 🙌🏾

[@Camagwinee]

I remember sitting at the front seat in taxis and tuning to this song back in high school with my peers🤭 I first heard this song in Feb/March on The Urban Beat at Metro FM

[@doneboyremo]

All this time I’ve associated the track with Dj Kent, need to deep dive on blackwhole

[@khethelomemela1942]

My dad had a maroon toyota corola back 2007 or so I was a kid and whenever his coming back from the Bottle store he once owned his car was blasting this song 🥹

[@3tone_Rythme]

Im glad i got to see Mr Cee after 14years. Please Kid Fonque convince him to get back on the game

[@ntsakobaloyi2187]

This is home

[@sibusisomabaso2026]
