Mzansi Bass [LP]

Various Artists – Mzansi Bass [LP]

Tra Tra Trax presents Mzansi Bass, curated by Shannen SP. A project meant to explore the space between 3-step, Gqom, the dark sides of Amapiano, and mutations of Pritori rap deeply rooted in Black African rave music from the local scenes of Durban, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Eastern Cape, and their global mutations from Brazil and the Netherlands. The project is anchored around the legacy act of DJ Lag and new comers of South African bass whose music has broken international barriers with pure-emotionally-rich dance music. The release works as both a celebration of the roots and the future offering it projects. As Shannen puts it, it's electronic music with a futuristic feel, both raw but minimal, trance-inducing and deeply physical, built in a very particular geographic space for the whole world to enjoy. Indulge into this special soundscapes crafted by their own inhabitants. Featuring HENNYBELIT, State OFFF, LYZZA, Boniface, Jay Music, Deep Narratives, and Audio Addicts.
