010: Wobe for Shaku Shaku - DJ Juan G (Oakland)

When in the Bay Area, all things Afrobeats converge on one point: DJ Juan G. On episode 010 of 30m, Juan revisits an African dance craze that bulldozed through the better part of 2018, called Shaku Shaku. More specifically, this episode explores a heavier, more frantic rhythm called Wobe that took shape in Shaku's wake. Think elevated BPMs and a darkened mood, transforming the Wobe rhythm into the current soundtrack for street kids all over Lagos. On this mix Juan G shines a light on a few of the lesser-known songs in this micro-genre, most of which share the rhythmic pulse the sound has become known for.
