But what exactly is gqom? Where did it come from?

Here’s a little gqom encyclopedia in a nutshell - for those who are not only into the sound, but also curious about the history behind it.

eylau [ @_eylau_ ]

Selects tracks in tune with his fascinations: the rhythms of the Global South, high-energy dance music and electronic sounds.
His musical starting points are primarily gqom, kuduro, batida, cumbia and their club interpretations. This blend turning Middle-Eastern European dancefloors into
sweaty melting pots of rhythm and Southern vibrations.

Former member of the Laboratorio Tropical collective and co-founder of Syncopate.

“The first gqom track I heard was practically at the very beginning of my journey as a DJ - in 2020 - “Uhuru Dis” by DJ Lag ft. Moonchild Sanelly. Even though I could feel the pure fire of that track, I wasn’t sure to play it, not believing that people in Poland would connect with the rhythm and vibe of gqom. And today I’m throwing the very first gqomu party here, and I’m sure people are going to love it! Gqom to the world!” taken in K-Bar Powiśle by @__syncopate__

kertua [ @kertua ] (@luksjasound)
Warsaw-based, Piotrków-born DJ, who runs the ‘Przesyt’ initiative promoting music by Polish artists. In his sets, he focuses on stylistic diversity, mixing bass, speed dembow, gqom, breakbeat and a bit of everything else. Sometimes he plays dense and dark tracks, sometimes fast and flashy ones, and sometimes all at once – and that’s fine too, because it’s all about getting your body moving and putting a smile on your face.

“I first heard gqom in 2017, and it was literally a life-changing experience. It was a wonderful feeling to hear something so fresh, powerful, and different from what was playing here and there. Ever since then, I’ve still felt that this genre isn’t given enough exposure in the club scene, even though it carries such immense energy.“ taken in K-Bar Powiśle by @__syncopate__

Mentalcut [ @mentalcut ] (@lua_preta_sound)

DJ and producer, co-founder of the duo Lua Preta. Blends contemporary electronic music with sounds from the global south — from kuduro and baile funk to gqom and dembow. With Lua Preta, he has performed across Europe and USA, playing both clubs and festivals. Their music has been released on labels such as Man Recordings, Good Enuff and Club Djembe, while Mentalcut’s tracks and remixes have been featured on BBC Radio 1, NTS, Keep Hush, Boiler Room and Rinse FM. His sets and productions balance raw club energy, fresh influences from Africa and South America, and a modern cross-cultural approach to sound.

“I was playing kwaito in the early 2010s and gqom feels like a continuation of my fascination with that music. Fun fact: “Ta Bater” by Lua Preta was the first gqom track in Poland and the first one in portuguese, back in 2018.” taken in K-Bar Powiśle by @__syncopate__

Yvan [ @yvan_le_chercheur ]

Rwandan born, versatile and intentional music curator/DJ focusing mainly on African & Caribbean originating genres. Co-founder of Syncopate.

“I came in contact with Gqom back during Trace TV/MTB Base era and started experimenting on it on the controller in 2019/2020 during lockdown. I had time to go back and look for music that made me dance back in the days. 

I am happy to finally play Gqom and share with you this beautiful energetic genre from Durban- South Africa.” taken in K-Bar Powiśle by @__syncopate__

madikoptah [ @maszbiszkoptah ] (regime/BASSKET)

Warsaw-based selector, promoter and curator, recognised by the likes of Unsound, Ephemera, Jasna 1, Samba and numerous independent initiatives across Poland. For years, she has been challenging club conventions by bringing leftfield and broken sounds to the dancefloor while actively supporting grassroots culture and championing emerging local talent. Her impact on the scene is best reflected through BASSKET, her long-running event series and platform, as well as her work with the Regime Brigade (@regimebrigade) collective, of which she has been a part since 2017.

If you scroll all the way back to the beginning of her SoundCloud, you’ll see that gqom was the first thing she ever uploaded there. taken in K-Bar Powiśle by @__syncopate__
