‘ These acts straddle musical boundaries in a surprisingly smooth spin session which pays sultry, thoughtful tribute in equal parts to South African ciphers, suburban rock garages, smoky afrojazz joints, kwaito bashes ekasi and ragamuffin dancehalls. We’ve come a long way. And it just sounds so good’.
