Sun-El Musician brings his signature blend of Afro-house, soulful melodies and South African vocal influences.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: times;">Julian Gomes represents the country's deep house tradition, with a sound rooted in groove, musical detail and soulful production. Jordan Arts adds another dimension to the bill, while Indigo, Slow Poison, The Disco Matinee, Kyle Word, So Noir, John Lyra, Spiro and Lisa Jane complete the announced local lineup.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: times;">The range of artists makes for a programme that moves across several corners of South African electronic and dance music, bringing different audiences and musical identities together for the day.</span></p><h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: times; font-size: medium;">Beyond the Dance Floor</span></h2><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: times;">Còdigo Theatre is built around an immersive concept that combines music with theatrical performances, imagined spaces and unexpected encounters.
