mix n blend

Mix n Blend started in 2001 when Jon and Kev began making beats together in Cape Town. They were DJing, got bored of just two turntables and a mixer, bought more toys, and started making their own tracks. Ross joined in 2008 and the three of them put out their debut album "Look Mom No Hands" on African Dope Records the following year.

Since then the project has grown into a 9-piece live band — horns, vocalists, a VJ, drummer, guitarist — all people who do incredible things in their own right. No two live sets are the same. They mash up whatever feels right on the night: dub, reggae, drum n bass, funk, swing, glitch hop, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
