7FT Soundsystem: "Honey, I shrunk the Dancehall"
Cape Town digital-dub duo 7FT Soundsystem are fast becoming one of my favourite acts to have appeared on the scene lately. They have already made some waves locally and if you have not heard their debut album “God Shuffles His Feet” you are missing out.
Incase you are missing out take a listen here.
