A Star-Studded Movement
What makes Dance Afrika Live stand out is its commitment to bringing together the pioneers and rising stars of the Afro-house and Afro-tech soundscapes. Among its featured talents is Cisco De Sol, a prominent producer and DJ who is currently gearing up for his highly anticipated Asian tour. His deep, rhythmic beats have resonated globally, making him one of the most sought-after names in the industry.
Another heavyweight on the lineup is none other than DJ Fresh, a legend in the South African and international house music scene.

The previous installment of Dance Afrika Live also saw a mesmerizing performance by the queen of African chants, Lizwi, alongside Cisco De Sol. Her powerful, soul-stirring vocals have made her a standout artist in the Afro-house genre, seamlessly blending traditional African elements with contemporary electronic sounds. Her presence further highlights the movement’s commitment to showcasing authentic African artistry on a grand stage.
The Impact on Dance Music Culture
The rise of Dance Afrika Live marks a significant step in positioning Afro-house and Afro-tech as dominant forces in global electronic music. These genres have long been underrepresented on mainstream platforms, despite their deep-rooted connection to African rhythms and storytelling. By giving artists a dedicated space to showcase their talent, this movement contributes to the broader mission of solidifying Africa’s place in the international dance music landscape.
As the movement continues to grow, it will undoubtedly serve as an inspiration for similar initiatives across the continent and beyond. With pioneers like Cisco De Sol, DJ Fresh, and Lizwi leading the charge, Dance Afrika Live is not just an event—it’s a revolution.
