Greg Fell from The African Attachment kindly mailed me to take responsibility for the incredible video above. So my suggestion is to get in touch with Greg and the team at The African Attachment if you have some money to spend and need some production work done. These guys have clearly earned their stripes.
With thanks to Bangers and Nash I discovered Ashtray Electric‘s new music video, “When sex becomes a sport”. It is nothing short of absolutely astounding. It compares to some of the best music videos I’ve seen emerge from anywhere in the world and would love to know who came up with the concept and shot it so I can award them with the credit they are due.

Bellville, Rock City is a DVD/CD/Print project that documents pieces of the life and music of some of South Africa’s most phenomenally influential Afrikaans Rock bands; Fokofpolisiekar, Springbok Nude Girls, Foto na Dans, aKING, Jax Panik, K.O.B.U.S!, Van Coke Kartel, New Holland, Ashtray Electric, Thieve, Lukraaketaar, Tatum and Die Heuwels Fantasties who are all from Bellville.
I’m assuming that the idea for this project came from the surrounding friends/fanbase of these bands as many of the people I know who are fervent fans are very creatively endowed. It’s quite admirable to see this collective creative development around young Afrikaans people exploding in so many dimensions. Other local artists would be lucky to have the same loyalty and dedication to their ideas.
The package Includes:
A 13-track audio CD featuring 13 of Bellville’s most prominent Rock Groups/Artists.
A 30 Minute documentary short film about the Bellville Rock Scene. Fokofpolisiekar, aKING, Ashtray Electric and others on tour.
8 MP3’s from the archives of Bellville bands throughout the years.
10 Music videos.
A 48 Page booklet in which the musicians share their photos and experiences.
