OK fam, we're throwing a little post-post African explosion of sound and vision, taste and smell, body and soul. The homies BLKJKSSNDSYSTM (Mpumi from BLK JKS), Blinky Bill (from Just A Band), Sinkane, The Happy Show aka Gazelle, and Chief Boima have plans to drop rare kwaito, afrobeat and deep funk punk cuts, sprinkled with salty bloody alt dance numbers from the continent and all over the diaspora, remixed and re-imagined. With the who's who in the works it's bound to be hot and heavy, trippy even. Come get down, turnt out, whatever you're about, let it loose with us! FREE HEINEKEN OPEN BAR — 8pm until 9pm (or until we run out — we've got 10 cases of FREE beer to give away!)
Friday, October 4th
