Line-up
DJ Lag
DJ Lag (real name Lwazi Asanda Gwala) is a South African DJ, producer, and pioneer of Gqom, a raw, bass-heavy electronic genre that emerged from Durban. Known as the "Gqom King," he helped bring the sound from underground townships to global stages, influencing artists worldwide. His music blends dark, hypnotic beats with African rhythms, shaping the future of club music. With releases on labels like Hyperdub and tours across Europe and the U.S., DJ Lag remains a key force in African electronic music.
Charisse C (UK)
NTS & No Signal resident Charisse C is a UK-based tastemaker rooted in her Zimbabwean and South African heritage. Her selections are curious, soulful and bass-heavy. With her sound, she spearheads South Africa's electronic soundscape, including, now global giants, Amapiano and Gqom. She describes herself as both a vessel and a storyteller.
Previously a Music Journalist, Charisse C's live performances and curated events are all part of an ever-evolving expression of her chosen mediums.
