dominowe: siyathakatha

The first solo artist release for the Gqom Oh! label. Dominowe is a 19 year old producer from the Newlands east township of Durban, South Africa. Siyathakatha snapshots important themes in Dominowe's personal journey, showcasing his original style in the context of the Durban electronic music scene, especially beside gqom and sghubu. "Siyathakatha" translates to "black magic", or, "we witching", which is right at the heart of this release: listening to these sounds invite you into the universe of an unseen world. It is about gqom working its magic on the dancefloor. "Bhenga Nezinja" features Chaotic Boyz.
