Exclusive Premiere: Tadi The Great - EFFF

Following on from the recent double release 'No Dey Carry Last' / 'Injera', Zimbabwe-born, Norwich-based musician follows up with his live performance recorded in the famous Worldwide FM studio. Showcasing his chilled vibe, he combines samples created through his analog equipment with a display of light-hearted vocals to create his own unmatched sonic. Since enrolling on the sixth year of Giles Peterson-backed artist development programme, Future Bubblers, Tadi has gone from strength to strength, evolving both his sound and audience.

Zimbabwe-born, Tadi The Great moved to Norwich at the age of twelve. His distinct musical sound sits between present-day greatness and unrivalled nostalgia. The name Tadi The Great pays homage to the Shona tribe - which he is a part of - from Zimbabwe who built the great Zimbabwe ruins in the late Iron Age thus making him ‘Tadi The Great Zimbabwean’. Inspired by Norwich and it’s laid-back vibe, the city gives him space to create without haste, allowing him to constantly broaden his horizons through his use of samples, analogue equipment, constantly driven by his undeniable passion to learn.

Announcing his forthcoming beat tape From Zamunda With Love due later this month, Tadi definitely isn't looking like he'll be slowing down any time soon. Take the session in above!
