Talk about putting the game in another level.. Alicelibo Music got the skill right? Zam can you tell introduce yourself, Where you from, What kind of music is alicelibo focused on producing and when did you start?
Hey guys Zam here. Would firstly like to thank Scara and al of you for having me on the show.
Alicelibo Music is based in township of Guguletu, Cape Town, South Africa.
That’s where I reside aswell.
Alicelibo Music is basically a music house and what ever type of music is accomodated.
I started the company in 1996 to be axact under a different name and changed it in 2004
to Alicelibo Music. Alice is my mom and Libo is my Aunt.
I produce for artists, tv agencies, radio, church groups and a whole lot of other media
that basically involves music in any way.
The couple of tracks which were playing are as follows:
Track 6 – Feel my hunger
Track 7 – Out there
Track 8 – Giant
Track 9 – Mazbhamuke
Zam tell us where do you see yourself in 5 years as regards to aliccelibo Music?
The company has bigger plans out side Cape Town and possibly outside South Africa.
During the World Cup I produced 3 advertisement jingles for an American Media house and am sure will be doing more work for them as my style of sound is not what they normaly hear.
In that time Timo Abdul Aziz Pahad and Bangsta’s albunms should have been out or two for each matter of fact.
I have a dvd coming out soon The Gux King Producer DVD that will showcase the art and work behind the work and the talent that goes into making Alicelibo Music what it is today and will be in the future.
Have some of your artists perform in other parts of the country like the other big cities i.e Jo’burg, Durban, PE, Bloemfontein or around the region of the Western Cape and if yes, what challenges do you encounter differently than your home or comfort zone?
Ow yeah. Timo has performed in New York but he was part of the team then but his experience has definetly impacted greatly in the plans having the team trying to get as nuch appearances as possible outside the Cape region.
Last year after Taycee’s passing we picked up and headed to the Eastern Cape to a small town called Cala. A local radio station has been supporting Alicelibo Music since 2008 when we started sending them material.
They invited us over and we gave a killer performance. The\ greatest experience about it all was having different artists from the samll towns around the small cities opening up the gig for us and the support they shown to these Cape borners.
The challenges of having gigs outside our region is basically accomodation and transport experienced by those requesting us to visit and perform in their ares.
Other than than we always find a way to make the exeperience as smooth as possible.
The past three tracks you have been listening to are as follows:
Track – 11 R.I.P
Track – 12 Giant skit
Track – 13 21 Gun Salute
Nice one. Super dope. from me Scara it feels like I knew Taycee.
Just sound man. Just listening to anything musical inspires me a whole lot.
Im basically always in the studio doing something or just creating new beat formulas cause I am getting bored with the same kind and snare formula and that on it’s own has been giving inspiration cause some of the material I have made trying this formula out
sounds more creative and different than any staff Ive made before.
Now that’s the kind of energy I need to keep going man.
Well me I find that support is depended on how far you take your material and the reception will be good where ever you take it.
Region wise its really about a matter of preference to the listener.
We are on reverbnation.com and we see that Kwazulu Natal and New York play our music more than any other part in the world.
To say that he’s not or he is will provide no straight answer. Emage is part of the Family but he runs Gaz’Lerhumusa Entertainment. His the founder the producer and one of the artists of his stable.
Alicelibo Music Gaz Le Rhumusha Entertainment that’s what I am. Hahahahahaha
