Future Gods presents Nina Kraviz in SA

JOHANNESBURG. Siberian DJ Nina Kraviz is heading to South Africa for the first time to headline the Future Gods event series on 4^th  and 5^th April in Cape Town and Johannesburg respectively.

A multi-faceted artist who is well known for incorporating live vocals into her DJ sets, Nina Kraviz has risen up the ranks to become one of the most prominent and productive female DJs in the world. Her relentless global touring schedule and critically acclaimed releases bear testimony to her distinctive sound and talent.

With a long time passion for house and techno that dates back to her days as a journalist, Kraviz is first and foremost a DJ, and one who showcases her first love - Chicago house and Detroit techno. Her drive to dig deep into the archives of these genres allows her to create a tapestry of past, present and future sounds - introducing her audience to where the scene has come from and where it might be heading.

Her deep, stripped back sound and uncompromising attitude has created an insatiable demand for her sets and a demanding touring schedule which has seen her playing at the world’s top festivals such as the Amsterdam Dance Event, Decibel, Awakenings, The Detroit Electronic Music Festival as well as regular appearances at clubs including Berghain, Fabric and The Warehouse Project – not to mention securing a much-coveted residency at Richie Hawtin's ENTER. project at Space in Ibiza.

Two pioneering event organizers Raymond Bloom and Juaan Ferreira are behind the Future Gods events. The pair have played a critical role in bringing out global dance brands many years ahead of the current influx. “Over last 7 years we've been bringing the Godskitchen brand to the South African market with some of the biggest names in electronic music. This platform has certainly been successful but now has little difference to the multitude of large dance music based brands and events that are pouring into the local scene.” explains Ferreira.

“The introduction of the Future Gods shows has freed us up to push the boundaries and entertain an edgier, more underground crowd who are crying out for a taste of what the leading cities in the world are enjoying right now” he continues, “Nina Kraviz, in this respect is perfect! We have no doubt that she will serve up a no holds barred set of music, delivered with the kind of attitude that has made her one of the most fiercely debated DJ/producers of the underground dance music movement. What could be better?”.

Nina Kravis will perform on Friday 4^th April 2014 at City Hall in Cape Town and in Johannesburg at 5^th April at Club And at The Alexander Theatre in Braamfontein. 

Nina Kraviz will be supported by Killer Robot and Coco Loco at both events.
