#Photoessay | Jozi’s Live Music Scene: Faces + Spaces [2013 – 2017]
I started to follow the black band scene closely once I got to Jozi 5 years ago. I would get asked by people then — and it still happens today — what the end-goal was for the images. I never knew how to answer.

#Fotografi | TBMO For IDM Mag And Johnny Cradle For Zkhiphani
I have a dream, that my little fotos will one day be cornerstones to monumental cultural movements. That the type of work that interests me — the work outside of the gaze held traditionally by white people, who wield white power and hence monopolise industries with their white money — will become permanently displayed in museums and […]

Two years ago, I met this guy whose music I’d discovered two years earlier on soundcloud. Hlasko is an incredible artist: a beatmaker, vocalist, songwriter, printmaker, and who knows what else? He’s also a collaborator of note — with Stashcrew, with The Brother Moves On, with Behr, with Labelle — and his contribution to music shall be lauded in […]

Get Some Kaffein And Stay Awake…
It’s been a few years since I witnessed Lethabo Ngakane work on the initial drafts of what was to become Kaffein, the South African youth magazine and on-line portal focused on unearthing talent which exists on the fringes, and giving it space to exhale, regenerate, and be read.

The Brother Moves On – A Myth Contextualised
I remember the first words I spoke to members of The Brother Moves On. It was at Rocking the Daisies in 2011; my then-partner and myself were taking a stroll between the camping and performance areas when we happened upon Siya (vocals) and Raytheon (guitar). We’d been impressed by their Saturday mid-morning performance at the main […]
