Veranda Panda ascend with bold new EP
Durban's electronic duo Veranda Panda are back and bolder than ever. Their new EP Ascension is a high-energy, genre-blending journey that marks a creative evolution — with Jane Magner stepping into the vocal spotlight across all five tracks.
TRUE to their style, the beloved Durban duo is back with a brand new EP, promising a colourful journey through music, growth and non-conformity.
Veranda Panda’s Jane and Liam Magner describe their latest work as genre-defying, highlighting that Ascension presents high energy and unique fusion.
The EP’s lead single, Love Today, is a collaboration with Pietermaritzburg singer-songwriter Angel M, whose soulful vocals blend seamlessly with Veranda Panda’s signature electronic flair. A nod to South Africa’s prolific afro-house sound, the track is an energetic yet introspective anthem about presence, gratitude and celebrating the now.

“Ascension is an intricate, emotionally-rich offering that sees Jane take centre stage vocally across all five tracks for the very first time. A bold, creative shift that underscores evolution and emotional depth,” shared the duo.
Having supported some of South Africa’s top acts and performed abroad, Veranda Panda have cemented their status as one of the most exciting and engaging live acts in the country. The Ascension EP track listing includes Love Today (Feat Angel M.), Grace, Light up the Jungle, Rebecca and Light up the Jungle (Bombay Canary Vip).
