Top Flight with Chal Ravens – Slikback and Kampala's Bass Underground

Every week on Top Flight, journalist Chal Ravens plays the finest new releases from the outer reaches of the dancefloor, tracing innovations in grime, gqom, dancehall, footwork, kuduro and other bass-heavy sounds from around the world. In this episode, she’s joined by a leading light of Africa’s electronic underground: Uganda-based producer and Hakuna Kulala label cofounder Slikback. As he prepares his second EP of rugged bass and twisted rhythms, he sheds light on his global influences and the growth of Kenya’s club scene. On top of that, Chal has the first play of "Salt and Pepper" from Australia’s DJ Plead, taken from his culture-fusing EP on Nervous Horizon, plus brand new music from Worst Behaviour Recs, Rian Treanor and Christoph De Babalon.
