As SWEAT.X prepare for another European tour, Europe slips into something a little more comfortable.
To date the response from the SWEAT.X European tours has been great to say the least, their unique blend of afro-coochie-pop is leaving a smoking trail of satisfied customers!
But the latest tour is not the only thing that sweat.x are pimping.
They have an October release date for their new EP ‘187′ out on UK Label TryHarder - www.tryharder.co.uk and now handling their EU bookings are Support Agency - www.supportagency.co.za who can boast Artists like DFA’s DJ and Label guy - Tim Sweeney.
Whilst on home soil, sweat.x has been picked up as a ‘ Supported Artist’ by Nike which means they are receiving a whole stack of support form the Uber brand, in the form of endorsements and gig support. They were covered on the front page of the STAR TONIGHT, which is a big and bold step for local Mainstream print media
In terms of the upcoming tour details, SWEAT.X are scheduled to hit EU from east to west with appearances stretching from UK to Ukraine and everything inbetween.
Sharing the stage this tour will be an array of Underground heroes featuring acts like ModeSelekta, Roni size, Switch, Bonde do Role, duke dumont

Sweat.x have broken the mold once again for what one can expect from South African Music. Pushing the boundaries out further than ever before they have shrugged off the stale mentality of ‘ like us because we are local’ and are causing genuine intrigue from Kiev to Kimberly.
But dont just take our word for it!!
“MC and DJ/producer duos, it’s time to step up your game. Sweat.X are coming from South Africa to steal your hype, your dancefloor, your future record deals and probably your girlfriends too whether you like it or not.”LA DECADANSE
“Performance art versus electro booty rap, crash landing in a cloud of filth, sex, Alexander McQueen-inspired outfits and sonic lasers.”DAZED & CONFUSED
“Sweat.X are the last word in the whole hip-house/new rave/electro-booty funk thing that’s so new it hasn’t even happened yet.” VICE
And despite all of this international commotion, sweat.x cant raise a single major local record company or radio station eyebrow….? makes you think about the attentive nature of the so called entertainment authorities in SA;)
keep tabs on the duo as they tear another hole in Europe’s musical landscape.
