Esa Presents Amandla: Music to the People

Esa Presents Amandla: Music To The People, a double vinyl electronic music compilation by DJ and producer Esa Williams. 

Growing up in Cape Town, South Africa, during the last days of Apartheid, Esa recalls the immense power that music had in resisting oppression and division. “Amandla, Awethu”, which literally means “the power is ours”, was an ubiquitous chant echoing throughout the politically charged atmosphere of the time – a call to unite, and a call from which this release derives not only its title, but its intention as well.
