The Witch’s Flight is guided by the question; “What does freedom SOUND like?” Taking heed to this, amapiano becomes a portal and a sonic guide to diverse freedom dreams. The Witch’s Flight is the quest for a Black feminist sensibility structured in a series of sonic experimentations that center South Africa and the larger African diaspora.

On this month’s episode, Zama will be joined in conversation by DJ Cleo, mapping DJ Cleo’s impact on South African dance music culture and its influence on the contemporary landscape of amapiano.
