ossory
Johannesburg as eGoli, the place of gold: a city built on an 1886 strike with no river or sea, crossing Sandton beside Alex, Soweto's Vilakazi Street, Fordsburg and Chinatown, Maboneng and Hillbrow — a city of migrants who never left, singing lekker through load-shedding, where “just now” never quite means now.
A Hole In The Cold
Style
Fast, percussion-driven South African folk-rock fusion at roughly 152 BPM, blending maskandi fingerpicked guitar and mbaqanga bassline with crunchy rock guitars over gumboot, djembe and amapiano log-drum percussion, sung by a warm isiZulu-accented male baritone and a bright, belting township-edged female voice trading and harmonizing.
