>>> ABOUT JINJI>>
I‘m a 22-year-old producer and DJ from Johannesburg, South Africa. The way I approach my music is that any and everything can spark inspiration for me, whether it be hearing a piece of music that I can sample from a song or hitting a teaspoon on a surface to create some sort of rhythm. 

I was always interested in how music was made as a teen but in 2015 I heard one song from Goldwater in particular called Substance and at the time, I thought  it was the greatest piece of production I‘d ever heard and that was the catalyst that thrust me into actually making music. So in 2016, I got FL Studio from a friend of mine and the rest is history I guess. It wasn‘t until 
October 2018 where I started posting my own music on Soundcloud though. My inspirations have changed throughout the years because with every new sound I‘d discover, I would take inspiration from whatever or whoever was prominent in that sound or genre. But I will say that as of the past 3 years, 
J Dilla, Kaytranada, Hiatus Kaiyote have been some of my biggest inspirations because whenever I listen to their music it gives me a feeling I can‘t explain, no matter how simple or complex the music is, and I try to strive for that when I make my music and hopefully the people that listen to my music feel that too. 

For me, all it takes to curate a mix is one song. From there the digging and searching begins in order to create a stream of music that flows and weaves into each other to make a great listening experience. For this mix, it was the first song which is a remix of Raphael Saadiq and D‘Angelo‘s ‚Be Here‘ by JBird. Thankfully I was able to get it before it was privated on his Soundcloud page. Because the first song I found gave an RnB feel I just took that direction and looked for songs that were similar to that. The idea behind this mix was to make it feel like music you could bop your head to while driving, or music to play in a calm environment with your favourite people,  just smooth vibes in general.

Jinji | boom, bap And beyond

OFF AIR SESSION presents “Swerved” - a collaboration between the sound artist Jinji [Johannesburg, South Africa] @jinji.jpg and visuals from Nawid [Frankfurt, Germany] @nawidooo_s.

Jinji provides us music lovers with body grooving vibes for this session. From Ciara's Body Party, Bruno Mars' Finesse, to Tupac, and many more, the "Swerved" consists many gems of old school flips in afro/baile and house vibes. We love the part of the mix where Jinji adds a bit of his Afrikan Roots to provide a hint of his culture to the mix! 

For more information about Jinji, he is an up and coming producer/dj with a great love for music. He is not defined by one genre which allows him to explore and experiment with different sounds from all over the world and broaden his versatility. We hope to see more of him in action for future collaborations and sessions throughout the endless world of music!

The stunning visuals are brought to you from Frankfurt, Germany by Nawid @nawidooo_s. Utilizing his expertise in motion graphic design, and artistic creativity to go above and beyond by creating a visual experience. Reminiscent of hazy summer days and PC games. Get transported into another world through a screen, enjoying the golden glow mingling with the waves, and a warm summer breeze complementing Jinji's sound. Take a well needed pause and enjoy.

SS021 "Swerved" <w/ Jinji>

ALL2GETHER Presents: On Location, standalone mixtapes exploring the international DJ community.

Up-and-coming producer and DJ @jinjishinobi welcomes us to Johannesburg with "Rhythm and Souletry" an exploration of contemporary Boom bap and Soul featuring several artists from South Africa's burgeoning underground music scene who've put their own spin on the sound. 

"I've been producing for about four years now. What made me want to start producing was when I heard Substance by Goldwater on Soundcloud for the first time and thought it was the best piece of production I'd ever heard at the time, still think it is till today, so a good friend of mine hooked me up with an android application called Caustic and that's about when I started learning how to make beats before moving on to FL Studio. The most notable artists I can say influence me right now are J Dilla, Knxwledge, and Kaytranada, but in most cases, I'm more influenced by a type of sound than I am by an artist and even that changes from time to time."
