Amapiano Now is a new music compilation by NTS which showcases the burgeoning amapiano scene in South Africa. Since emerging from the townships of Gauteng and Pretoria several years ago, the amapiano genre has quickly established itself as the defining sound of the South African club underground.
This collection of unreleased music - compiled by NTS - presents a snapshot of that sound today in its various forms, from the most established artists to young talent from across the country. Amapiano Now is a celebration of an essential sound: a document of the evolution of post-apartheid club sonics, as the genre lies on the cusp of global recognition.
