Buddynice (Real name Nkosinathi Phakathi) is a South African producer, audio engineer, and the creative force behind Redemial Sounds - a genre and movement he founded to expand the emotional and rhythmic depth of deep house music. Hailing from Pretoria, Buddynice blends nostalgic melodies with broken tech textures, creating a sound that is both future-facing and deeply rooted in African soul.

As a Godson of The Godfathers Of Deep House SA, he played a pivotal role as both producer and audio engineer - shaping iconic sounds within the South African deep house space and earning respect from industry elites. His collaborations span legends like Kaysha, Sir LSG, D-Malice, and LaTique, while remixers such as Chymamusique, Chronical Deep, and China Charmeleon have interpreted his music with great acclaim.
With an ever-growing catalog of original releases, Buddynice has established himself as a sonic storyteller. Tracks like Okhokho Be-Tech, Fortune Teller, Asambe, and Ngiyajola have resonated with listeners across the globe, building a loyal fanbase who tune into every drop. His series Redemial Sounds Chapters further prove his consistency, innovation, and commitment to evolving the genre.
For Buddynice, music is more than sound - it's heritage, healing, and vision. He’s not just producing tracks; he’s building a global legacy under the Redemial banner, one release at a time.
