Kwaito & Kasi Classics w/ Halfpastsise - 7th October 2025

HALFPASTSISE takes us on a journey through South African local nostalgia with some of the best the country has to offer. A genre born from the marginalized, Kwaito is a pillar of freedom of speech for those who grew up with it. As a music curator who loves forging connections, Halfpastsise delivers a local story that is translatable to many who know all too well about the underdog culture. A genre sometimes described as the parent to Amapiano, Halfpastsise showcases the difference in its mature groove and soulful lyricism that makes anyone cruise with the beat. A rich taste of South African late 80s and 90s, appreciate by every diaspora in the country.
