Shangaan electro innovator Nozinja presents his debut album on Warp Records, an invigorating blast of future-facing dance music from Limpopo, South Africa. Nozinja Lodge sees the producer test the frantic upper limits of Shangaan Electro on white-knuckle, rave-channelling cuts like Baby Do U Feel Me and Vatswelani, while enjoying the freedom to take his foot off the gas and bring a deeper, lilting touch to his trademark sound on Vomaseve Hina and closing track Jaha. Featuring a community of Shangaan vocalists alongside Nozinja, the songs take in themes of love, faith and tribal customs - while endlessly chasing the visceral thrill of the dance.The record has a unique soul, stamped with the spirit of the Shangaan people, their language and musical history. Coming out of South Africa's vibrant post-apartheid cultural landscape but with no clearly discernible peers, Nozinja is a true visionary of the 21st century digital diaspora. Nwa Baloyi, Mitshetsho We Zindaba, Baby Do U Feel Me, Xihukwani, Tsekeleke, Vamaseve Vatswelani, Nyamsoro, N'wanga I Jesu, Vomaseve Hina, Wo Va Jaha
