Basic Training Sessions 001
We're taking back the city. Hip Hop like it's supposed to be done.
---------------------------
Pioneer Unit is launching an all-out offensive in the form of a bi-weekly club night to win back the hearts and minds of Capetonians, re-tuning their ears to the best the Cape Town and global hip hop scene has to offer: Basic Training Sessions.
The dance floor will be bumpin' with a diverse selection of the freshest global and local hip hop. The night will be 'curated' and hosted by one of South Africa's most respected hip hop veterans, DJ Raiko. We will have bi-weekly roster of guest DJs, producers and emcees, all carefully selected for their creative and technical skills. Naturally Pioneer Unit will be in full effect with your favourite artists and producers in residence.
What makes Basic Training Session unique is the live hip hop elements such as turntablism, live producer beat-making sets, live bands and, of course, emcees. These elements will be seamlessly integrated into a Jamaican-style DJ session to create a non-stop entertainment experience.
---------------------------
Expect to hear:
Raekwon, Rattex, Elzhi, Driemanskap, Gin-i Grindith, Ohmega Watts, Ben Sharpa, Roots Manuva, Black Milk, Jaak, KONFAB, Blu, Jay Dee, Slum Village, J*Davey, Mos Def, MOP, ATCQ, Busta Rhymes, Stacy Epps, Archetypes, Platinum Pied Pipers, Damola, Unspoken Heard, Bilal, Hymphatic Thabs, Pacific Division, Johnson and Johnson, John Robinson, Jazzy Jeff, Exile, Ill Skillz, Stephen Marley, Self Scientific, Sa-Ra Creative Partners, Count Ba** D, MF Doom, Dave Ghetto, De la Soul, Diverse, Dangermouse, J Rawls, Dudley Perkins, Georgia Anne Muldrow, El da Sensei, Emanon, Ghostface, HBMS, Illa J, Ill Poetic, Invincible, Jake One, Jigamastas, Chronic Clan, Kan Kick, Madvillian, Mode9, Zimbabwe Legit, Simba, TOP, Lootpack, Asheru and Blue Black, FiFi, Guilty Simpson, (along with a couple good old cla**ics and much much more).
You'll also experience all that sounds that hip hop has influenced and evolved into: Spaza (Cape Town hip hop), Afrikaans, UK hip hop, trip hop, dancehall, electro, glitch, grime and any hybrid of these genres - the common theme will be keeping the party live on a Friday night.

You're right, we could have a graphic on the side saying, 'Pioneer Unit, helping the orientationally challenged since 2009' :)

That bad boy drinks petrol like it's going out of fashion. I'd have to charge R200 for tickets if used that :)
