Music under Apartheid - Episode 7 - UNDGRND

This radio show taps into the niche underground scenes that have opposed and challenged the established system, society and sound of their time. Each week, Lennart and Alex investigate a specific musical venue and ask themselves how it emerged? Who were the people driving it? And how have they challenged the social and political norms of their world?


From Nigerian 70s Afro-beat, to German Trap sounds of today, or Hip Hop beats out of Compton and the South Bronx, each episode will uncover the story of its underground artists. Most importantly it will shed light on the society they emerged in, the politics they confronted and the lifestyle they lived. Narration and storytelling complement the best tunes we believe to represent the scene. The listener enters our Pirate-Radio-Submarine and dives deep into a music genre they could otherwise have missed out on...
