Every Friday moon, the basement of The Mall in Westlands is transformed from plain unpainted walls & pipes to an underground watering hole for niche electronic and alternative music connoisseurs and artists titled ‘The Mist’.
The Mist is a weekly basement rave providing artists with a platform to host experimental sets from all spectrums of the electronic sub-genre: house, techno, future beats, drum & bass, ambient, jazz electronic, glitch, jungle, afro-tech…the list is inexhaustible, but you can read the full comprehensive list of electronic music genres and sub-genres here.
Friday the 13th of January was a particularly auspicious night, seeing as it was the first Mist event of 2023, and what better way to launch a brand spanking new year than with the dreamy ambient textures of KMRU and Nyokabi Kariuki, as well as the global jungle and bass sounds of Berlin-based DJ and Oroko Radio founder, Kikelomo.
