Ep12: Kongisto

International DJ and founder of the globally acclaimed Slow Mo Lounge series, Kongisto ( @Djkongisto), is a child of the ’80s raised on '90s Boom Bap Hip Hop. His deep love for Soul, Funk, and Disco began by raiding his mother’s record collection, and his passion for House was sparked by sneaking out to Diepkloof Soweto’s legendary 'Ama Six to Six' block parties. From those rebellious nights to today’s dance floors, Kongisto has built a reputation as a selector with rare musical depth. 

Simply put: he’s your favourite DJ’s favourite DJ.

The Feeling: Ep 12 - Kongisto

Shoemaker grew up in a family on the east coast of the United States where music was always the cornerstone of the home. When he first left the States over a decade ago, his love for music was only magnified by his travels around the world. Shortly after, an obsession for disco music sent him down a path of collecting and playing records.  With multiple residencies in the city under his belt over the years, his drive for finding new music and sounds inspires him to consistently dig deeper. Today, Shoemaker’s sets are influenced by disco, Latin, African, Zouk, house, and music from all corners of the world - never one to stick to one sound or genre. He aims to spoil listeners with music they are unfamiliar with but find irresistible not to move to! 
Shoemaker has played at MCQP, Sexy Groovy Love, Kinky Summer, Rocking the Daisies, Retreat Yourself among other festivals and is a regular DJ in the city bowl where you can catch him playing at various venues around town.
