The main themes in the mix centre around wood percussions, thunderous synth pads and chopped Zulu vocals - creating a kind of dark atmospheric sound. It is anthem like, vivid, tribal, abstract in parts and yet specifically dramatic. 

The sound reminds me - in part - of techno in the late 90s where my dj'ing journey began at 'Teknival' and illegal rave party but also has elements of early dubstep which was deep and mystical.

Most of the tracks were new releases that came out of my recent trip to Durban as well as tracks recently sent to me via whatsapp.
 
The mix is a tribute to the artists of my label Gqom Oh!, their crews and friends. It also includes a handful of exclusive tracks from the next release "Gqom Oh! X crudo Volta Mixtape".

It is Rough, rugged and raw. It's riot music.

I start off aggressive and scary, due to my anger issues getting the better of me.
As time goes on, I convince myself i'll be fine, cause "PEACE IS WHERE THE VIBES AT, & THE VIBES ARE THE PEACES AT"
so I end up being calm and I find my piece, whether i changed for the better or for the worse in your eyes, I found my PEACE. 🖤
