She is a connoisseur of heavy basslines and badass beats, and truly delights in sharing only the finest international sounds including deep funk, dancefloor jazz, vintage reggae, dub, disco, blues, Afro-Latino rhythms, 70’s blaxploitation & 60’s Italian soundtracks, psychedelic grooves, originals, and obscura.

Afrocat trained in sound engineering at Mute Records, London, and produces her own original music fusing dub, jazz & hip-hop, with her own lyrics and vocals.

Afrocat hosts her radio show, Blaxploitation Lounge, on Threads Radio and Slack City, with a previous residency on Aaja Music.

She performs at gigs frequently, and loves nothing more than playing at festivals, clubs, and events, lifting the vibration, and spreading some love…

There has been an incident around Côte d’Ivoire that has caused disruption on the major undersea cables serving Ghana. This has disrupted internet and data services on MTN and Telecel (former Vodafone).

1. There is a cable breakdown between Accra and Dakar on SAT 3
2. The alternate path on WACS is also down
3. These outages could take long to come up

🫣 do you think Elon Musk behind it?!

TESTIMONIALS

“We chose to book Afrocat as a feature act for our performance at the Impulstanz Festival, Vienna, where we hosted the closing night.
Afrocat performed professionally in every way you can expect from a musician. 

Her musical selection complemented our  event perfectly. 

She read the audience well, and kept up the high level of energy.

She didn’t hesitate for a second to put in the extra effort, when we were asked to play two hours longer than initially contracted.

I can therefore recommend booking her for any event, in which you wish to have a crowded dancefloor, no matter whether your audience is keen on Funk, Reggae, or Jungle”

A magical, soft golden sunset last night at Es Vedra. I played a few select tunes as the sun went down…naturally…so humbled someone said after that the sunset + my tunes was like ‘floating in paradise’. I will never forget that!! How special 💝 I LOVE that I am on earth to be a channel for beautiful music that moves souls and spirits. I’m just a channel in a catsuit! 😻 Went so well yesterday at my gig @grb_ibiza that I’m part of the family now, and back again spinning today for their season closing party!!
