Kid Fonnque Celebrates His Birthday And Reveals What He Is Grateful For In 2020
Kid Fonnque Celebrates His Birthday And Reveals What He Is Grateful For In 2020 – Kid Fonque has become a vital part of South African electronic music and club culture over the last 20 years.
Uniquely accomplished in both influence and scope, he is an over-achiever in every one of his roles: DJ, label manager, promoter and more recently, producer.
Firmly established as a tastemaker in South Africa, Kid Fonque’s influence can be felt and heard in the music of the many artists he has helped nurture with his role as label manager of Africa’s seminal dance label Soul Candi Records and now his new venture with Jullian Gomes in their label Stay True Sounds.
Kid Fonque’s talent is the type that refuses to acknowledge boundaries of any kind – be they genres or borders. The respect he is paid by the industry is a result of his no-compromise attitude to playing and making music. Rather than following trends, Kid Fonque has always done things his own way and on his own terms. Importantly, every record he reaches for bares all the hallmarks of the Kid Fonque sound – a golden thread that ties all his sets together somehow.
As he celebrates his today, 28th February 2019, he reflects on what is important in his life since he has been born in this world. And he does not recount many things, apart from the gratitude he feels to be blessed to be to do what he loves every day.
This is what the caption had to say:
41 Today! Grateful to have made it through another year of doing what I love
