New Kwaito, G'qom (Durban House Music), AmaPiano, and a Kwassa Kwaito Mix!!

In this episode, we go back to the Southern African nation of Botswana for a Kwassa Kwaito Mix!!

During the early 1980s, there was a subgenre of Soukous (Congolese Dance Music) called Kwassa Kwassa that developed on the streets of Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo (then known as Zaire at the time) and this sound from Artists such as Papa Wemba, Kanda Bongo Man, Koffi Olomidie, and later Artists such as Awilo Logomba and Fally Ipupua was not only popular in French speaking African countries, but in English speaking African countries such as Zambia, Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi, Zimbabwe, and especially Botswana. 

As Kwaito was popular in Botswana during the 90s, some Artists and Producers started to fuse the imported sounds from South Africa with the melodies of Kwassa Kwassa and then, Kwassa Kwaito was born, with Artists such as Vee Mampeezy, Eskimos, Wizards, Mingo Touch, and Exodus!

Listen to the mix that fuses the Southern and Central African sounds of both regions!! Enjoy!!!

My dad left Togo in September 1977 to study in France.
Far away for Mother Africa, music was his favorite link with his roots, he spent months digging vinyl crates in the different French cities he travelled to.
He took me to Togo for the first time in 1999. This mix is an hommage to the long car rides, to roots, to family.
