Carl Wastie speaks to GoodLuck's Jules about being a new momma and new music. 

Jules stopped by The Flash Drive with her and Ben's new bundle of joy.

Of course, Uncle Carl couldn't help himself because little Skylar was too cute for words.

Jules says motherhood has been amazing so far and while she and Ben are doing the most as new parents, they are also doing the most with new music, as always.

GoodLuck and Shamzisto have joined forces to create something connected, nostalgic and magical with their latest single, Thandiwe.

The track is more than just a fusion of two musical styles — it's a deeply emotional love story, told through music that transcends almost all boundaries.

Blending GoodLuck's signature uplifting electronic energy with Shamzisto's soulful African vocal performance, Thandiwe captures the essence of connection and passion.

The song’s journey began when GoodLuck’s Jules Harding stumbled upon Shamzisto’s haunting acapella performance after his video went viral on Instagram Reels and TikTok.

The raw emotion in his voice immediately struck a chord with her.

"I had no idea what the song was about when I first heard it, but the melody and the way he sang it just spoke to my soul... I used to play it as a lullaby for my newborn baby Skylar in the first few weeks after she was born," shares Jules.

"Even though the vocal was so deeply connected and nostalgic, I could imagine a version for the dancefloor. So I chatted to Ben and we made one!"

The powerful combination of Shamzisto's evocative vocals and GoodLuck's ability to turn emotion into high-energy soundscapes has resulted in Thandiwe becoming one of the most-streamed songs the band has had.

Thandiwe has also caught the attention of Chill Your Mind, one of the world’s top international house music labels from Germany. Recognising the song's potential, they have made it a priority release, further amplifying its global reach.
