Director - Teddi Don Pierrot
Camera/DOP - Rene Othudi
Editing & Designs -- DRO & PYRO (onelouderagency.com)
Part 'prince of township tech', part 'suburban space invader', Spoek Mathambo is back with the video for his debut album's first single, 'Mshini Wam'.
The song is a story of a young revolutionary who becomes a corrupt fatcat after 'the big victory', a common South African story. For the video, Spoek ditched the spacey costumes and lights and went into inner-city Johannesburg, to shoot a grimy ghetto story in a grimey ghetto way, complete with barbershop skankin', Congolese fishmarket parlaying and a dance competition in the park with the kids!!

Spoek Mathambo's 'Future Sound Of Mzansi' (Part 1)
'Future Sound of Mzansi' is Spoek Mathambo and Lebogang Rasethaba's powerful new documentary about South African electronic music. Part one introduces the new sounds coming out of the townships and urban areas of cities like Durban, Cape Town, and Johannesburg. It becomes abundantly clear that regionalism is extremely important in the development of genres like broken beats, qgom, Shangaan electro, and kwaito. Or, as a producer puts it, it's about the need to "own our shit, own who we are, then bring that out to the world."
We also get to meet the film's colorful cast of characters, which includes Black Coffee, Okmalumkoolkat, Culoe De Song, the owners of Cape Town record label African Dope, and broken beats originators NakedBoys, among many others. The producers discuss the ways the Inte...

'Future Sound of Mzansi' is Spoek Mathambo and Lebogang Rasethaba's powerful new documentary about South African electronic music. Part one introduces the new sounds coming out of the townships and urban areas of cities like Durban, Cape Town, and Johannesburg. It becomes abundantly clear that regionalism is extremely important in the development of genres like broken beats, qgom, Shangaan electro, and kwaito. Or, as a producer puts it, it's about the need to "own our shit, own who we are, then bring that out to the world."
We also get to meet the film's colorful cast of characters, which includes Black Coffee, Okmalumkoolkat, Culoe De Song, the owners of Cape Town record label African Dope, and broken beats originators NakedBoys, among many others. The producers discuss the ways the Internet has both helped and hurt their scenes, while dancers show off the sneaker-shredding moves that bring the music to life.
One of this segment's most powerful moments comes from Nozinja, who delivers a passionate speech about using Shangaan electro—the genre he pretty much created—to represent the marginalized Shangaan people. "For me to be known and seen all over, representing that same marginalized and abused nation, I feel proud," he says, eyes twinkling. That same pride resonates with everyone else in the film.
Starting on May 20, Future Sound of Mzansi is premiering over three episodes on THUMP—check back for parts two and three.
Spoek Mathambo's "Future Sound of Mzansi" Credits:
Directed by: Nthato Mokgata and Lebo Rasethaba
Produced by: Black Major
Featuring: Black Coffee, DJ Spoko, Mujava, Culoe De Song, Christian Tiger School, Felix Laband, Aero Manyelo, Okmalumkoolkat, Saki Ibrahim and others.

Spoek Mathambo is a South African artist, musician, songwriter & filmmaker. With four critically acclaimed solo albums in his catalogue, not to mention his collaborative band projects Fantasma and Batuk, and a documentary on SA electronic music (Future Sound of Mzansi), Spoek Mathambo is a prolific creative, showcasing and stretching the limits of electronic music and hip hop.
On his new album Tales From The Lost Cities, producer and rapper Spoek Mathambo revisits his first love, Hip-Hop, with a project steeped in rich storytelling, razor sharp social commentary and an endless reserve of gymnastic flows. The concept album drives a cross section through South Africa 2020, to give a view of a highly complex and volatile society struggling to come to grips with its post Apartheid “rainbow nation” dream/nightmare. Spoek Mathambo takes Hip-Hop, the great crucible of culture, and creates a colorful ride through a diverse set of soundscapes, each emboldening Mathambo’s no-holds-bar approach to songwriting.
The eclectic self produced album features guest appearances from scratch DJ Raiko and collaborations with Batuk, Spizzy, Mark Mushiva, Vuyo and Daev Martian.

Spoek Mathambo is a South African artist, musician, songwriter & filmmaker. With four critically acclaimed solo albums in his catalogue, not to mention his collaborative band projects Fantasma and Batuk, and a documentary on SA electronic music (Future Sound of Mzansi), Spoek Mathambo is a prolific creative, showcasing and stretching the limits of electronic music and hip hop.
On his new album Tales From The Lost Cities, producer and rapper Spoek Mathambo revisits his first love, Hip-Hop, with a project steeped in rich storytelling, razor sharp social commentary and an endless reserve of gymnastic flows. The concept album drives a cross section through South Africa 2020, to give a view of a highly complex and volatile society struggling to come to grips with its post Apartheid “rainbow nation” dream/nightmare. Spoek Mathambo takes Hip-Hop, the great crucible of culture, and creates a colorful ride through a diverse set of soundscapes, each emboldening Mathambo’s no-holds-bar approach to songwriting.
The eclectic self produced album features guest appearances from scratch DJ Raiko and collaborations with Batuk, Spizzy, Mark Mushiva, Vuyo and Daev Martian.
