DJEDJOTRONIC RECORD IS OUT!! I'M ON DIRTY AND HARD AND HORROR KLUB!!
THEY SAY
*Mokgata is Ndebele royalty descended from the Maraba royal family of Polokwane, and the singer, dancer, songwriter and fashion-face of Sweat.X. He lives in Johannesburg.*
*Spoek Mathambo is a slippery post-Apartheid glam-rap prince from Soweto who is descended from distant African royalty, or Jewish, or both. In addition to our online communications trail, I have two weeks worth of phone bills—a Paris mobile, a London office number, some digits that connect to a voice speaking Arabic—to prove how hard it is to catch up to him.*
*And so to Spoek Mathambo. As one half of Sweat X, Soweto’s Spoek (aka Nthato Mokgata) has been a constant blog presence over the last 12-18 months, turning blog heads onto electro and hip hop South African sounds. Whether it’s his work with Playdoe (with Sibot), Bulgarian or DJ Edjotronic (with a new 12″ on Boyz Noize dropping soon), Spoek’s name repeatedly resurfaces - of late, in the form of his own ongoing mix series.*
POST SUMMER POST FESTIVE SEASON MIX... A LIKKLE MESS TO MAKE SURE THIS CRAZY SUMMER IS NEVER FORGOTTEN...WAS TOO WILD AND TOO THOROUGH TO BE FORGOTTEN!! THIS IS FOR THE DECEMBER POSSE...THE WHISTLE BLOW POSSE...STRIPCLUB POSSE...XMAS DEVIANTS CREW...BIG SPACE, DURBAN GANGSTERS, TSHEPO, SJAMBOK, KOOLURK, IRONMAN, Z, MASTERCASH, SI (BANANANA), ZM...DIE BRASSE!!
IN MANY WAYS IT IS A GUTTER MIX. I HAVE SHIED AWAY FROM “THE MAN’S” FANCY TRICK & TOOLS AND HAVE CHOSEN INSTEAD TO STITCH THE SONGS TOGETHER WITH NOTHING BUT A MACHETE, A XMAS HAM AND SOME WATERMELON. BUSH SKILLS!! EXPECT ALOTTA SOUTH AFRICAN HOUSE, KWAITO & TECHNO WITH A TITCH OF FUNKY WHERE IT MATTERS.
DJ MASTERCASH IS THE DADDY H.I.V.I.P. THE DAN DADA DANGARGAN. HE GOT CRAZY TECH ON THIS HERE MIX...I WENT TO SEE HIM PLAY IN THE RAVE ON THURSADY...AND ACTUALLY NOTICED THEN THAT HIS SOUL BEEN INHABITED BY SOME KIND OF EVIL ROBOT
