Welcome to Makela Space 4. Crossing time, space and genre, even as we explore the in-between spaces to include a special Zombie Jamboree! 

We’ll be hosting Thomas Sankara and Fela Kuti; sound artist/poet, Moor Mother and Berlin-based Kenyan sound artist, KMRU. The space resonates with archival sounds from Gabon, along with contemporary Amapiano and Singeli beats from South Africa,Tanzania, and more...
