South African house music duo Liquideep are set to perform in Nairobi at the Blankets and Wine show, December 18.
The South African duo is made up of
singer/songwriter/producer Ziyon and DJ/producer Ryzor, and just two years
after their formation they caught the attention of the South African fans with
the track Fairytale.
Their list of awards includes Channel O Music Video Award
for Most Gifted Dance Video and received a SAMA nomination for Song Of The
Year.
Liquideep’s appeal could be put down to the originality of
their culture clash between African beat and an awareness of what works on the
globe’s dancefloors. But it’s also down to their ability to craft sweet and
memorable songs.
Before their smash breakout debut album the distinctive
Liquideep beats had already attracted remixes from big international
underground names.
The duo joins other big stars who have performed at the
Sunday afternoon event like Thandiswa Mazwai, Manou Gallo, Mafikizolo and
Oliver Mtukudzi.
The afternoon event features outstanding afro-based bands
that range from afro soul, afro-fusion, afro-jazz, ethnic, experimental and
other emerging genres.
