If the vibes are good, it’s likely that Nigerian beatsmith and entrepreneur DJ Consequence is responsible—the “vibes machine” has become one of the Africa’s most prolific party-starters. “The global reach of [African music] extends far beyond the continent,” Consequence tells Apple Music, “and its influence can be felt in various aspects of popular culture—from music and dance to fashion and visual arts.” For October’s Africa Now mix, he puts those skills to work with an energetic set that spans the continent, featuring the sounds of Asake, Darkoo, Seyi Vibez, DJ Tunez, TitoM, Yuppe, Mr Nation Thingz, Shallipopi and more.
