Exploring Sound
Contact: hunter@blacklightmgmt.com

SA trio redefining creativity by fusing diverse styles into soulful soundscapes and celebrating boundless artistry, with their no-rules philosophy that pushes the boundaries of art for today and beyond.

“DJ’ing is about connection, the basic human 
experience, and I love this.”

Accomplished DJ and label owner, 2Lani The Warrior, typifies a new generation of talented twenty-first century South African electronic dance music creatives.  His approach to track selection, whether building a DJ set in real time or discovering tunes for release on his labels, draws heavily on diverse musical influences. Formative years spent in the warm embrace of the finest jazz, soul and reggae tunes, alongside more locally-originating sounds, lends 2Lani’s work an uncommon richness and eclecticism.  The common thread linking everything is the man’s desire to transmit emotion from recording to audience.

It’s easy to discern 2Lani’s musical heritage and fastidious approach to curation, both in his sophisticated DJ performances and in the catalogue of releases on Do It Now Recordings, Music Basket and DeepStitched.  The results of his lifelong quest to showcase great music are particularly evident in the intelligent, almost unconscious, melding of musical forms found in 2Lani’s live performances.  Recent critically acclaimed cameos for Mixmag’s The Lab series and another appearance in Johannesburg for the respected Boiler Room brand, attest to his enduring high status in the deep soulful house underground.  2Lani’s regular guest mixes for Los Angeles-based taste-maker Lars Behrenroth’s legendary weekly Deeper Shades of House show are further testimony to the esteem in which he is held among the global house cognoscenti.  A real innovator bringing real music to real people.

2Lani is recognised for thoughtfully constructed and uniquely moving DJ sets, and while deeply rooted in his proud African heritage, his music choices are outward-looking and accessible to the most discerning worldwide audiences.  Beyond the underground, the man’s prestigious talent as a selector is one of the best kept secrets of house.  If you know, you know.  Whether playing out to an appreciative dance floor of discriminating deep soulful house enthusiasts or championing local and international production talent across the genres, his underpinning ideology remains the  same.  For 2Lani, it’s all
