Towards an Expanse Follows the acclaimed 2020 collaborative albumBuffering Juju? with Kechou, a fellow South African musician and artist,lauded as Global album of the month and a wonderfully inventive debut?in The Guardian.Sometimes gospel, sometimes electro-psychedelic space travel, theproject starts with a languid lament that whispers a close-to-the-earinvitation up and between the folds of what unfurls into an ever-expanding sonic universe.Towards an Expanse began in 2019 at Figure 8 Studios (Brooklyn, NYC)under the generous guidance of Shahzad Ismaily. It was written in PortAlfred and Cape Town and matured in Berlin and has evolved into acompanion, a pulsating vessel of grief, vitality, and reclamation. The albummeditates on learning to live with damage while regaining autonomy overhow Black life is archived: a dialogue between the artist, her ancestors,voices like Miriam Makeba, Busi Mhlongo, Princess Magogo, Madosini, andthe psychoacoustics of South Africa's lore as a timeless technology. Itbrings these elders into a conversation with Dumama's global orientationand experimental sensibilities.
