Concert
Ayobaness - The Sound of South African House
Record Release Party Part I
Fri, Jul 2, 2010
6.30 pm
Admission: 5 Euros
In the townships of Johannesburg, the buzzword "Ayoba" means: excitement. At the end of apartheid it started with Kwaito music, the boiled down and increasingly sophisticated house beats with raps in Zulu, Xhosa and suburban English. Local House Styles got established.
The compilation "Ayobaness" presents this sound in full bloom. Live with DJ, comedian and singer Pastor Mbhobho with his huge Afro and lots of bling bling. Directly from the townships of Jo'burg comes the Kwaito Star "MGO”, with his Pantsula dancers.
