It’s an interesting thing that even in a place like South
Africa, the music scenes between town and country rarely intersect.
Leave it to Bridges for Music,
then, to help integrate not only the sounds of South African urban
centers with their outlying townships, but also to foster a relationship
between artists from the US and Europe and those making their homes in
Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and other metropolises. Geneva’s
Luciano is one such DJ who, earlier this year, made the trip to both
entertain and educate South African youth in Langa and Soweto townships
on the topic of dance music. But, as is often the case, it turned out
that Luciano himself received just as much of an education. He not only
participated in a series of free workshops with Vinny da Vinci, Ryan
Murgatroyd, and Ready D but also performed with the likes of legendary
SA house DJ Black Coffee, Kid Fonque, Thibo Thazz, and plenty others.
