A collection of behind-the-scenes photos from Gqom Oh! and Crudo Volta's Woza Taxi documentary (2016). This documentary from Italian music label Gqom Oh! and Rome-based radio station Crudo Volta sheds light on the artists behind gqom, an electronic dance movement born in the townships outside Durban. Woza Taxi, which premiered on The Fader in July, follows director Tommaso Cassinis and label head Nan Kolè as they visit the homes and studios of core gqom artists. Alongside the film release, Gqom Oh! and Crudo Volta have produced a 32-page traditional mini newspaper to showcase the best photographs from the trip. It's a beautiful publication filled with raw, poignant images - a rare look behind the scenes of an emerging music culture. "It was really an amazing experience," Kolè told The Fader about the project. "To see how they produce gqom, and how they live, and the whole creative process. How this music brings them closer together with their friends and crews, not only just to create a track, but also to dance together."
