Fantasma - Free Love - Music CD

2015 release by this project led by South African innovator and pioneer Spoek Mathambo. Fantasma is a five-man collective which weaves together electronica, hip-hop, traditional Zulu maskandi music, shangaan electro, South African house, psych-rock and punk to form a unique, original and fresh hybrid. The godfather of 'Bacardi House', producer DJ Spoko joins with former Machineri guitarist Andr Geld-enhuys, drummer Michael Buchanan and maskandi multi-instrumentist Bhekisenzo Cele to complete the line-up. Fused by Spoek Mathambo's futurist vision, Fantasma pulls inspiration from all corners of South Africa: The sounds and spirits of townships and cities as well as the rural countryside. It is diverse not only in it's membership but also in it's forward-looking music.
