European music festival at Design Indaba, Your Street Challenge extended

Advanced music and multimedia art

Described as a festival for advanced music and multimedia art, its reputation is based largely on its prominence on the electronic music scene and is considered one of the highlights on the European music festival calendar.

Modeselektor, a key figure on the contemporary global electronic scene, will be one of the headlining acts for the evening and will be joined by home-grown Das Kapital, a young Capetonian who first attracted attention with his remix of the Bon Iver classic "Skinny Love". In addition to remixing South African artists, Das Kapital has also composed music for action movies in the North American market.

Tickets are available through Computicket at R250.

Your Street Challenge new deadline

The new deadline date for the KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng portion of Your Street Challenge is 16 March 2012. The organisers state that already many entries have been received and they hope many more will still come in.
