A bit of Goldfish, Desmond and the Tutus, Jack Parow and more. All from SA.

Mbaqanqa, or music from the township of Soweto, Johannesburg, South Africa, is characterized by a strong, propulsive beat, soulful vocals and crazy guitar/organ riffs. These 15 cuts come from my limited collection, but comprises some of the greats such as The Soul Brothers, Mahlathini and Sipho Mabuse. Wish I had more!

Cultural librations full of vibrations. Yvone Chaka Chaka, Bo Diddley, Luis Conte and more music.

Eight tracks including music with a huge South African influence by Black Cofee Feat. Zakes Bantwini, Dj Fresh & Euphonik and Euphonik ft Tyrren.
