Straight To The Top: the futuristic Gqom-inspired instrumental reflects on the last years
of Okmalumkoolkat’s career during which he has steadily increased the number of audiences
for his zharp lyrics, his champion fusion of languages and contents as well as his out of this
world dance moves.
Zweitbester: Takes the crew on a journey around the world, bringing Holy Oxygen Jazz to
the far out corners of Planet Earth, distinctive, warped chords and an uplifting-forward house
-inspired feel build the foundation for a lit up anthem.
The Durban-Joburg-Vienna massive goes wild on ‘Isimangaliso’ which is an intensely condensed
instrumental provides the red soil for Simiso’s verbal graffiti, steadily building up into numerous
crescendos.
Shark Attack: is a further example of the trio’s trademark fusion of worlds, opened by a
distant chord assembly it develops into a wild, claustrophobic, psychedelic song that is bound
to leave a lasting impact in the listener’s minds. Holy Oxygen is here to stay. They leopards.
