AFROHEAT! 9 x CUBA

KST Presents

AFROHEAT! returns to KST and joins us in welcoming Cuba’s Malpaso Dance Company to Pittsburgh! Together we will turn the lobby into a dimly lit, bass-heavy dancehall. DJ Vex and DJ SMI bring the Afrobeat style alive with influence from rhythm around the continent and from previous masters of the genre. As the AFROHEAT! party develops, the music becomes more eclectic and shows its mix of old African and modern influences.

DJ Vex and DJ SMI specialize in rare and classic Afrobeat music, with a healthy dose of some of the newest Afrobeat tunes coming out of the continent today including endless amounts of remixed and reworked sounds from producers around the globe.
