Not enough bass in your life these days? Look no further than the afro-beat and new wave inspired techno (or "post punk township tech" as the description reads) of South Africa's Spoek Mathambo. Spoek, who is also a graphic and fashion designer of sorts, is leading a charge of new electronic music from the African continent, and you can hear (and see) it in the video for the single off his debut album Mshini Wam (which drops September 12th on BBE Records). Our friends over at Rephlektor Inkorporated supplied us with an audio preview of the title track, as well. Check it out below!
