Gqom Oh! the sound of Durban - sampler - ltd 12"  
Premiere on ''The Fader'' :
http://www.thefader.com/2015/06/18/citizen-boy-gqom-remix-adele-hometown-glory 

"Qgomu is the creation of a bunch of black super-swag adolescents who chose this Rub-a-Dub name after the noise generated by a stone falling on a floor tile: in the local slang “gqom iz da sound u get wen u drop a rock on tiles”. And then they all dance BHENGA!!! Everything happens in a DIY-oriented universe where organic and home-made samples (dog barks, whip lashes, drumming sounds) are grafted in a deep, enveloping and almost ghostly rhythmic texture.
There is an evident line of continuity with the south African house movement, though with totally new elements: not only sounds that take us down in the circles of hell of dub step, but mostly an imaginary, sort of meta-historical influence inspired by an implicit anti-slavery anger. 
It’s something like a ground-zero of black radical movements that go much beyond any trivial political claims, embracing a whole galaxy of signs bound to leave a distinct mark in the evolution of dance music"

Citizen Boy - Hometown Glory  (Gqomu remake)

"Like being suspended over the gravitational field of a black hole, and lovin' it" - Kode 9
“Massive, dramatic tracks!! Most of these are giving me goosebumps! A really strong presentation of the Durban sound” - Spoek Mathambo
"A great snapshot of what's happening with the Gqom sound. Dark and rolling, with a real feeling of menace and intent behind each track" - Mumdance

‘The Sound of Durban Vol.1’ represents the first full length compilation collecting the sound of the suburbs and townships of Durban, South Africa known as “gqom”.

River Of No Return (Ben De Vries Remix)

Release Details:
Title: Gqom Oh! X Crudo Mixtape
Catalogue Number: GQOM 003
Label: Gqom Oh!
Format: Tape/Digital
Release Date: 25 July 2016

The word Crudo [ˈkruːdo] in Italian translates as “raw” and this is the overarching concept around the latest Gqom Oh! Release. 

It is set to be in collaboration with Crudo Volta - a young Rome-based collective who focused on visual curation and dj culture. The mixtape is the soundtrack of the Woza Taxi documentary. Making the documentary in April 2016 - whilst visiting his artists and their families in Durban - label boss Nan Kolè painstakingly narrowed down this selection of tracks for the release. The trip lent a tremendous amount of in-sight to Nan Kolè, granting him both a detailed and broad view of the Gqom scene and what Gqom means to the youth of the township (for they consist the core music makers and listeners of Gqom).

Their unique sound, which took Europe by storm at the start of 2016, is a way for the youth in the township to express themselves - something that music does the world over - but moreover enables them to express their pride and experiences in their Zulu culture and history. Mawbestana from Forgotten Souls gave some insight into how the music was made. He said in the documentary “…Everyone thinks we have a mega studio with huge speakers but we are just ‘Hlanganisa’..” Hlanganisa is a zulu word literally translated as 'putting together'; This refers to creating something out of the few elements available to you “…Just like when you scrap the bottom of a pan to get some food out of it..” cited Mawbestana. 

The release features 14 tracks showcasing different and new music from Durban  - spanning Core Tribe through Sgubhu to Gqom. The 90 minute tape will consist of two sides, with Side A containing seven tracks and Side B containing a continuous mix and a digital download code granting access to the entire compilation. 

The tape will be release in ‘package’ format designed by Crudo Volta alongside a photography book with the best pictures from the trip to Durban by Tommaso Cas-sinis, a limited edition t-shirt and access to an online premiere of the documentary.
