Your New Favorite Dance Genre: Nozinja’s Shangaan Electro (Video)

 

Your new favorite dance genre, Shangaan Electro, is the brainchild of Soweto, South Africa’s Nozinja.

 

 

 

He’s just been signed by Warp Records, and as they put it, Shangaan Electro is “a 21st century reboot of local folk tradition, Tsonga disco, kwaito and South African house.”

 

 

 

 

“Nozinja has transcended these reference points to dream up an innovative and iconic Afro-futurist strain of electronic dance music. There is nothing quite like a Nozinja production: it is home-grown rave music in its purest form.”

Fantastic, brilliant, and not unlike playing F-Zero after way too much Mountain Dew.
