Futuristic South African beats, courtesy of Sibot


Local DJ and hip-hop genius, Sibot has kicked of the new year by releasing a 3-track EP of futuristic hip-hop beats. Magnet Jam can be downloaded here for free. As you can see from the thumbnail below, the EP cover depicts some nudity, so be cautious if you're downloading this on a work/ school computer or in a public place.




Mad Decent wrote the following about the release:
Africa is a hub for some of the most out there Hip-Hop and Sibot has been a huge staple in the scene. From doing projects with Ninja (Die Antwoord) to Spoek mathabo and others to winning the SA Battle Championships in 2002 he's done it all. Now see's his first jeffree with is a packed release with weird but catchy futuristic beats from the beathead genius. The title track "Magnet Jam" and "No Question" sound like Q-bert's "Wave Twisters" for a new generation, weird spacey reverse suction beats for droids and punk robots. The final track is like a lost tune from an unheard cantina band from Star Wars, its like future funk for midget aliens that dance on the bar tops for bit coins. This said Sibot has clearly lost his mind, these are sounds you've never heard before that make you dance in unthought of ways.

I'm really hoping to catch Sibot performing live at one of the local festivals this year.
