about
South Africa’s Group Areas Act of 1950 separated all racially mixed
neighborhoods by removing black communities and relocating them on the nto townships, the poor, black residential areas created under
apartheid for the lower class of South Africa. Township music consisted of various genres created by Bantu peoples living in poor, racially segregated urban areas during the 20th century. The principal genres of township music are mbaqanga, kwela, and marabi. Marabi evolved from jazz influence in the 1920s. Immigrants from Malawi developed the kwela sound by fusing Malawian music with marabi, American jazz, and traditional Zulu music.

Capetown Township, South Africa - Music/Musica: Composer unknown/ignoto
One of my favourite musical discoveries in a while. These musicians are seriously talented. I can’t help imagining that there would have been a whole significant subculture of Yiddish psych rock like this in a different, kinder universe. For now, this is a window into that world that might have been. And I love every second of it. Audrey
One of the best new albums of Yiddish and Klezmer music on Bandcamp in my opinion. The collaboration of two sensitive artists of different generations who know a lot about Yiddish and American music.
