Heavy weights of the game Spoek Mathambo and Sibot unite to make up the omnipotent Playdoe.
Both men originally hail from Johannesburg, and to say they have climbed the ladder of performance and musical excellence, would suggest they would even have to climb a ladder – These guys are in a league of their own – a whole other ladder.
Signed to Jarring effects in Paris and Try Harder Records, they have embarked on 4 European tours, have played many of the world top festivals, and have performed alongside such acclaimed acts as Anti-pop Consortium, DJ Food, Dizzee Rascal and DJ Krush amongst many, many others.
Their Style of music is impossible to describe into a genre, but is driven by elements of Ghetto-tech, Hip-hop, Glitchy Electronica and Funk – self-described “Neolectric Afrobotics”.
Sibot has been the Beat-smith genius behind Max Normal, Real Estate Agents and Closet Snare and Spoek is the power-mouth of Sweat.X and Slush Puppy Kids.
Both men are highly accomplished solo artists in their own rights and the magic is further compounded when they come together.
Expect a heavy dose are masterful cutting, poignantly whitty, tongue in cheek raps, Perfectly produced beats and colourful textures galore.
An absolute audible treat from two men at the top of their game.
