Shangaan Shake

by Various Artists

Shangaan Shake cover art

Features international electronic producers remixing the hyper-fast, marimba-heavy dance music of South Africa's Limpopo province. Artists including Theo Parrish, Actress, and Mark Ernestus deconstruct the frantic 180-BPM source material, translating its joyful, localized energy into abstract dub techno, footwork, and minimal house. The project illustrates a fascinating cross-cultural dialogue between African folk-pop and the European avant-garde.
