Sizwe Mashinini on Kofifi FM 97.2

--:--
Our guest is a talented atmospheric pianist, producer and educator who’s worked with Lawrence Matshiza, Hugh Masekela including the popular band Stimela and has also released solo projects of his own.

Fascinated by the IsiSwati rhythm heritage, he wants to fuse this with with modern technology to further elevate the African sonic to a place where the global community can appreciate and celebrate even further.

Naturally, I was intrigued by this stance and as always I let the curiosity get the better of me and we have invited him to join us this week to explore this story and also get to know his life in music.
