For fans of: Cutting Edge Global Dance Music

What they're saying: A glowing review at Tinnitist by Darryl Sterdan praises DJ Black Low’s expansion of the possibilities of South African dance music, specifying Uwami’s unique strengths: “Most interesting , though is the producer’s ability to harness his improvisation and experimentation into compelling grooves when he collaborates with others, as he does so readily on this recording.“ Also, a John Morrison written profile on Bandcamp Daily sums Uwami up nicely as well:

“South Africa has been producing some of the most inspiring electronic dance music in the world. Twenty year-old DJ and producer DJ Black Low, is the latest name to build on this growing musical movement… With its jumping polyrhythms, discordant synths, and off-kilter samples, Uwami showcases DJ Black Low as a producer with a fully realized voice.”

What we say: One of our favorite discoveries of 2021 so far. Dense digitized drum loops, spare melodic sounds, and unique and distinct vocals makes for a great update on South African dance music.
