Nan Kolé has detailed plans for new EP 'Malumz'.
The Rome-born, London-based producer helms the Gqom Oh! imprint, channelling a conversation between Durban's Gqom scene and wider Western electronics.
New EP 'Malumz' drops via Black Acre, but it finds the producer saluting his South African influences.
“Malumz is a tribute to my Gqom Oh! family”, Kolé explains. “They call me Malumz, which in Zulu means ‘Uncle’. The first time Citizen Boy called me ‘Malumz’, it was overwhelming — I felt a change in my relationship with all the guys, because they started to treat me more as a family member, which meant a lot.”
First track 'Bayefal' is online now, and it's all chopped up beats, chanted samples, and stunning, future-laden energy. Tune in now.
'Malumz' EP is due to be released on April 14th. Tracklisting:
1. Bayefal
2. Malumz (Tribute To Gqom Oh!)
3. Malumz (Citizen Boy Remix)
4. Malumz (Formation Boyz Remix)
