SOUTH AFRICA MUSIC - ''FOOD FOR YOUR SENSES – THE MANELIS EXPERIENCE''
It’s taken me a few minutes to find the right words to explain exactly what I want to relay to you. I still haven’t found the words and the clocks ticking so I am just going to let my fingers step on the keyboard with hope that I will articulate my thoughts.
FOOD FOR YOUR SENSES – THE MANELIS EXPERIENCE
Manelisi Mzwandile Ntsele should replace the definition of both the words – sacrifice and pure art! Dude is frontman of the experimental music band Luminati (NO NOT ILLUMINATI).
The band is a mash up of genres such as rock, hip hop, reggae with traces of jazz and traditional music. Before Luminati, Manelisi flew solo and dropped the timeless piece of art called ‘’Sitshengise’’. Personally, people still haven’t really caught on to his last offering and now he’s officially zoning out of this realm with his upcoming experience. When I say ‘’upcoming experience’’ I actually mean his upcoming show. It’s rather unfair to use colloquial terms to describe what Manelisi offers in his music. So he’s not putting up a show, he’s taking you on a experience.
The Food For Your Senses will feature a few supporting acts that will form part of the experience. The show is some form of music time travel from mid 80’s to current day mindset. Encompassing gumboot dance, poetry, canvass art and crossover of the music from a digital realm to a live band.
The supporting acts are; BFG (hip hop); Tumelo (poetry); Dirty Paraffin (new age kwaito); Philani Luthuli (visual art); Gumboot dancers and Luminati (multi genre experimentalist band).
Venue – Comfort Zone (In Clearmont)
Damage – R40 (underpriced if you ask me)
Date – 31 July - Sunday
Time – 12pm
For enquiries - hit him up at 083 337 2518 or at mangete@gmail.com
