NTS X Diesel Tracks Presents Unticipated Soundz
A new electrifying sub-genre called 'uThayela'
NTS X Diesel Tracks Presents Unticipated Soundz – Based in Durban, this pioneering trio of creatives is at the forefront of a sonic revolution. Unticipated Soundz is rewriting the rulebook on Gqom, originating a new electrifying sub-genre called ‘uThayela‘ or ‘corrugated iron.’ A name inspired by the idea that this sound would quite literally ‘shake the roof’, due to its rough and bass heavy sounds. Known for igniting dance crazes on social media and stirring up the club scene with their infectious, high-energy productions, Unticipated Soundz crafts a soundscape that is wild, distorted, and undeniably fresh.
