A work of cunning workmanship! Mduduzi has outdone himself in this single entitled A Detribalised Urban Population.
With the drum beat thumping on a four-on-the-floor, congas filling in behind it, whistles and an enchanting vocal sample, the melody sets up an Afro-Bop feel to this amazing composition, giving it a truly impressive traditional mood.
It is without a doubt an acoustic setting, compliments of the double bass riff that drives one to a hypnotic state, in this way allowing messaging to take over in a subtle manner. Mduduzi Kheswa's ideas, especially about an African culture that is now slowly dying, can be felt through out this piece of music as it is evident in his artwork.
So, if you are into music that is laid back, engaging and with a thought provoking story behind it, this is a track for you. A Detribalised Urban Population!
