A specially curated DJ mix by the team behind The Outsiders!
Just like the name of the show ‘An Evening of African Poetry and Storytelling’, this mix showcases how diverse the African sound is when telling stories through words and beats.
Are you looking for an early morning mix to get you ready for the day or you having a chilled afternoon or perhaps a grooving evening? This is the mix for you! This mix is inspired by stories, sounds, people and cultures of the African Heritage.
Curated and mixed by Ayo Busari of TAB Family, this Mix consists of tracks from Nigeria - his home country, some from South Africa, Ghana, the U.K and last but not the least it has some of his own records on it, so you know it’s a vibey one!

About The Outsiders
The group behind ‘The Outsiders’ is made up of 3 African diaspora creatives, Ayo Busari, Kuda Ndlovu and Lisa Watson. The project is curated and produced by the group and aims to continue their involvement and support of an under-represented Perth creative scene. The trio has been curating events and opportunities for local artists to get a chance to showcase their talent and that is what brought the group together.
About the Youth Week WA KickstART Festival
Presented by Propel Youth Arts WA, the KickstART Festival has been the flagship event of Youth Week WA for 12 years running. KickstART offers over 60 free events - including workshops, talks, performances, mentorships, exhibitions, markets, and other special events - between 8 - 16 April, for young people aged 12-26.
Due to growing concerns about COVID-19 and the anticipated continued spread of Omicron across our communities in Boorloo (Perth) and WA, the Propel team has decided to pivot towards digital and hybrid formats for the delivery of the KickstART Festival this April.
The Youth Week WA KickstART Festival 2022 is presented by Propel Youth Arts WA and is funded by the Government of Western Australia through the Department of Communities and the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. KickstART is also supported by Lotterywest, the City of Perth, the City of Stirling, the City of Fremantle, and the City of Vincent.
