about

GQOM LEGEND GRIFFIT VIGO RECLAIMS HIS THRONE WITH NINE
TRACKS OF ‘ANCESTRAL FUTURISM’...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Durban native - GRIFFIT VIGO, is a real innovator of the Gqom sound. Starting out in 2004 his journey as a musician has produced releases such as the timeless ‘DJ’ EP and global anthem ‘REES VIBE’ on GQOM OH!. He has attained legendary  status amongst his peers as one of the originators of Gqom, with his tracks being a constant in sets from the likes of DJ LAG, RUDEBOYZ & BBC RADIO 1’S TODDLA T.
Following the self released ‘GQOM WILL NEVER DIE’ EP earlier this year, GRIFFIT VIGO has really come into his own on ‘I AM GQOM’. Producing nine cinematic tracks, equipped for the club, that explore both his ancestral heritage and vision for the future of Gqom.
“Gqom is all about sampling, looping and creating your own vibe, I say so
because I Am Gqom.’ - Griffit Vigo
The visual concept by MIKAEL CALANDRA ACHODE and audio journey both draw inspiration from early Zulu culture. Compounds known as Kraals would act as the homestead, a site for ritual worship and a defensive position for the King and his family. GRIFFIT VIGO aims to create a metaphoric Kraal through music, for himself, the listener and the new generation of Gqom.

My whole body agrees with the pace of this short but solid track list. A generous helping of acoustic rhythm samples ignited by breakbeats add extra attention to full range movement on the dancefloor. Not a beat wasted. cherub420
