Following his album 137 Avenue Kaniama<\/em>, Baloji just released a new mixtape Kaniama: The Yellow Version<\/em> along with a self-directed video clip, Zombie<\/em>. Both take us in a futuristic Kinshasa, between hope and distopy, where they question our relationship with technology. The mixtape features a revisited version of the former album in one hour-long track, following the narrative of the short, as well as two exclusive tracks \u201cSpotlight & Miroir\u201d (Feat. Marshall Dixon & Poison Mobutu) and \u201cL\u2019hiver Indien\u201dfeaturing Gael Faye.<\/p>\n Read our interview with Baloji<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n Stream and order the mixtape here\u00a0here<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n South African artist Muzi furthers his personal blend of Zulu folk and gospel with more global rhythms such as EDM, dembow or trap, translating traditions into bangers. The four-track EP takes elements from South African music and shapes them into creations that can appeal to both local and global ears, where isiZulu\u00a0verses meet pop\u00a0synths and sounds.<\/p>\n Stream the\u00a0EP\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Carregando A Vida Atra\u0301s Das Costas<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Lisbon-based music collective Principe has done a lot for the local electro-kuduro scene, shaping what is now known as the \u201csound of Lisbon\u201d and helping export the music from the suburbs, made by the African diaspora, to the world. They\u2019re back with a new double EP made of tracks from young producer Puto Tito, salvaged from his old Soundcloud account. Composed when he was 14 years old, \u201cthis album is testament to the fierce, uncompromising vision of a bedroom producer learning his way with minimal resources and simultaneously laying down some of the most distinct music [they]’ve heard in years.\u201d<\/p>\n Listen to\u00a0Puto Tito\u00a0in our Afro Club Exp.\u00a0on\u00a0Spotify<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0Deezer<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n Order the album on\u00a0Bandcamp<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n For Versus<\/em>\u2019 third edition, On The Corner\u2018s boss Pete OntheCorner has gathered a bunch of dancefloor killers crafted by producers from all around the world.

Eminent member of the 667 crew, based between Lyon, Dakar, Montreal and Paris, this LP is imbued from the collective\u2019s esoteric symbolism. The title of the release is a reference to both Babylonian astrology and to Marshall Masters\u2019 Planet X conspiracy theory. Featuring collaborations with fellow crew members Slim C and Freeze Corleone, the album channels Osirus\u2019 cryptic lyrics and gloomy instrumentals.<\/p>\n Stream\u00a0Nibiru\u00a0<\/em>on\u00a0Spotify<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n Porto-based band Throes + The Shine has been shaking Europeans stages for a while with their unique blend of kuduro and rock sounds. After two albums released in 2014 and 2016, they are back with Enza<\/em>. Meaning \u201cplanet\u201d in Angolan kimbudu, the album was produced by Dutch producer Jori Collignon (Skip&Die, Nobody Beats The Drum). The ten tracks are a hypnotic and hips-shaking blend of influences, featuring Lisbon-based MC Mike El Niteon \u201cMusseque\u201d, along with Mexican duo Sotomayor and Mozambican singer Selma Uamusse.<\/p>\n Stream\u00a0Enza\u00a0<\/em>on\u00a0Spotify<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n In this week’s selection: Baloji questions our relationship with technology, Throes + The Shine further their exploration of kudurock, On The Corner releases a new dancefloor-oriented compilation and more… Baloji Kaniama: The Yellow Version Following […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":24670,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3944],"tags":[4096,5854,6845],"location":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41778"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41778"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41778\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24670"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41778"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41778"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41778"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=41778"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pan-african-music.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=41778"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
