Salif Keita, known as “Africa’s Golden Voice”, is one of the afro pop’s great pioneers. He was born as a prince, related in straight descending joints with Mali’s king and founder, thus prohibited by singing to sing. But he challenged the conventions and became a musician. In the 60’s and 70’s he was singer in the legendary bands Super Rail Band de Bamako and Les Ambassadeurs.Salif Keita is constantly up to date and tours all over the world. He has won several awards and recently received prestigious AFRIMA Legendary Award in place in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire.

Peggy Gou @ Slakthuset
Slakthusgatan 6, 121 62 Johanneshov, SwedenLast summer we could see Berlin-based Peggy Gou from Korea before Dixon. Now she comes back for an intimate club game at Slakthuset!
2017 was Peggy Gou’s year with a bizarre tour schedule with over 150 plays, including at Panorama Bar, Sub Cult and Dekmental. Mixmag ranked her Top 5 of Top 20 of the 2017 DJs alongside Carl Cox, Aphex Twin and Nina Kraviz. You can say quietly that Peggy Gou is a growing star where her house-disco fusion has won our hearts, minds and, above all, our shoes on the dance floor.
