A genre-defying Afrofuturist manifesto from Uganda

Faizal Mostrixx's singular vision of East African electronic musicisa lush sonic tapestry of polyrhythms, modern dancefoor styles, Nilebasin ceremonial chants and Pan-African feldrecordings.

A stalwart of the explosive Kampala electronic music scene Mostrixx has collaborated with the Nyege Nyege Tapes collective appearing at both the African and European editions of their festival.

Mutations is Faizal's second full length album, following close on the heels of his acclaimed EP Transitions (May 2022 / Glitterbeat). In their review of Transitions , The Wire noted: "If today's currents in East African electronic music have a more mainstream destiny, this might be how it starts."
