Our Story

How It Started

We started as a humble Instagram page in 2020 which featured artists & curated genre based showcases in India to introduce Amapiano, Tarraxo to audiences in Goa.

This grew into a platform that curated hours of music and genre specific playlists that boost discovery into the niches of African music.

Now we are a globally recognised media brand with boots on the ground in Africa and ambitious plans to grow and expand in multiple African countries.
