String Symmetry


IMG_2657.jpg

 

String Symmetry is a guitar duet that focuses on Spanish / Flamenco music. Classical pieces and acoustic ballads also form part of our reportoire, and the latter inevitably has a Spanish flavour…. Our music has been described as romantic, energetic and refreshing.

String Symmetry is currently working on a Spanish guitar CD that contains mostly, original tracks written by String Symmetry. A Christmas album is also on the “to do” list that will feature familiar Christmas carols but with a unique Spanish touch. Either of these should be on the shelves later this year!!

MIX n Blend - LOOK MOM NO HANDS - SAMA 2010 Nominee


phpThumb_generated_thumbnailpng.png

Mix n Blend's Debut Album African Dope Records presents "Look Mom, No Hands."

'Look Mom, No Hands', the debut album by Mix n Blend is being released in October, 2009 on African Dope Records.

The Republic of South Africa - where it takes a lot to satisfy everybody, and even more to satisfy a handful of people and where the hard and fast rule in music is to try one’s level best to slide seamlessly through influences, genres, tastes, preferences or whatever else makes people sit up and take notice these days. This is the approach taken by Cape Town's fast-rising live DJ-trio Mix n Blend.
