I've been sleeping on this whole gqom thing but I've really been enjoying Dominowe's EP on Gqom Oh! Darkside UK funky type vibes...
― paolo, Friday, 7 April 2017 08:24 (seven years ago) link
Is anyone releasing gqom apart from Gqom Oh! I'm going to do some digging into their other releases (even though there's only about three) but I'm not sure where to go from there

nargiz was on that Club Chai comp (that i think is gonna go down as hugely influential on the year in club music) with that Rihanna remix but here's an also great mix she just did for what looks like a new club night/concert series in Atlanta

do we have like a separate thread or anything for diasporic club music? like for naafi and non and ghe20g0th1k versus the scene-based stuff like gqom and shangaan?

Foodman is awesome. I've met him during my stay in Japan. Definitely has a new album on the way.

Don't know if you've all seen this before - it's from 2013, 75k views on Youtube etc., but I keep coming back to it. The guy who comes in at 15:50 is just complete brilliance.

For those compiling your year-end lists, this playlist includes all the available tracks on this thread, organized roughly chronologically in order of mention... also a good time to look back on this thread cause there's some bangers!

new DJ Taye is really good! Vocals and hip hop influence bring a lot of variation to the sound, and Taye's productions are on point
― Dominique, Monday, 5 March 2018 19:13 (six years ago) link
excited to check it
i was surprised that i wasn't much into the dj earl album because in general i really like his production and dj'ing (particularly the jungle / dnb influence he brings)
― the late great, Monday, 5 March 2018 19:17 (six years ago) link
also got quickly bored of the dj manny
hate to say it but i feel like footwork really peaked about 4 years ago
i'm still listening to footwork buuuuuut aside from jlin not much i think that reaches the heights of "double cup" or "legacy"

wasn't the thing w/ Nate that he drifted away from footwork really soon after the first collection came out and started doing relatively straight rap productions instead?

Yeah, he was doing auto-tune singing and it was still kinda crazy but a world away from the footwork stuff.

fwiw i think jana rush dropped one of the best footwork release oat last year.
― ANU (sisilafami), Monday, 5 March 2018 23:39 (six years ago) link
tbf Gucci Goggles came out before Ballin. But I don't know who invented what, all I know is that I kinda miss the sound :( Super Saiyan vol 1 is one of the underrated mixtapes of the decade.

not according to the time stamps on these videos. and sicko mobb / every bop artist will tell you they were inspired to start rapping by keef, 'ballin' was the biggest keef song on the west side
