The Cape Flats, offers a rich cultural heritage. Here, independent record labels help to

create awareness through music genres such as hip-hop, R&B, house, kwaito, soul and

developed world. However, it is also important to gain an understanding of how

industry professionals can leverage technology in a localised context.
