With Nodiggity

Tonight I invite you to join me on a sonic exploration through some hard-core South African dance music frequencies. It's giving 'turn the volume all the way up', it's giving 'are you ready to SWEAT?' It's giving ' we give thanks to the sonic gods.' You're tuned into a Nodiggity experience. This month's show is sharing some powerful tracks from the Durban-rooted genre Gqom.


Nodiggity is a Johannesburg based DJ, writer and researcher engaging with music as a conjuring portal. On the decks she explores sounds across house music and its sub-genres. She's particularly interested in sharing the voices of femmes and queer people in the electronic music realm through her sets and mixes. She's driven by contributing to inclusive and affirming dance floors and hopes that her work can do this not only in SA but across the diaspora. The sonic is a communication path that expands that of words, time and place for her.
