Electrik Cake With Coco Street 0181 - Notes From The Motherland

Last week, we navigated the grit and groove of Bruk and Jazz House—a space where syncopated rhythms pushed us toward reflection and movement. This week, we go beyond the surface, diving deep into the sounds that shape identity and affirm existence. Notes from the Motherland isn’t just about where we’ve been—it’s about the rhythm that carries us forward. This week, we return to the source.

Welcome to Notes from the Motherland.

Afro House is more than a genre—it’s a living archive. Rooted in the vastness of the diaspora, it blends ancestral rhythms with contemporary expression, echoing stories of migration, resilience, and transformation. From the villages of West Africa to the underground clubs of Johannesburg, Afro House captures the essence of survival and celebration—a call to remember, and a reason to move. The sound of resistance, joy, and spiritual grounding. From deep tribal textures to sun-soaked Afro-Latin grooves, this mix pulses with the essence of the diaspora.

At a time when many are craving roots, identity, and a place to belong, these sounds remind us where we come from—and where we’re going. It’s more than music. It’s a call to remember.

Welcome to the journey.
