unfashionably late
a close friend of cosmodrome, gavin, made this happen

South African kwaito producer DJ Mujava is getting his excellent “Township Funk” released worldwide on Warp Records (and on actual VINYL) and of course everyone should get a copy. I played a small part in getting this transferred from awesome YouTube video to transportable and mixable wax, by linking to the vid at one of the exclusive internet haunts I occasion, full of all those underground movers and shakers… Ok, I embedded it on a message board, some people dug it, and someone from This Is Music actually tracked down Mujava in S’Africa to license the track in the UK. Warp picked up the international rights. And because I played such a HUGE ROLE my name will be on the label somewheres. Big ups to Luke at TIM for his super ethical dealings that even included me in the loop. Most importantly, Mujava will get some unfashionably late love and some scrilla besides. Buy it so we can get more kwaito on vinyl!
