<h2 style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Uniting world-renowned icons with fresh, new emerging acts from all corners of the South African scene, the 2016 line-up presents the same careful curation that has garnered <b>CTEMF</b> international recognition in previous years. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In typical CTEMF fashion, the line-up boasts a staggering variety of electronic music: hip hop, house, techno, electronica and all strains of bass music.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Highlights from today’s announcement include: Detroit techno stalwart <b>Rolando</b>, French DJ/producer <b>Chloé</b> lauded for melding art and music, Berlin's <b>Ralf Kollmann</b>, head honcho of powerhouse imprint Mobilee. Critically acclaimed SA-raised <b>Petite Noir </b>returns to perform his first ever live show on home soil while <b>Aero Manyelo</b> will administer a potentially lethal dose of Pretoria’s house beats.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A large contingent of Cape-based artists make sure that the festival remains true to its name and aims of representing the city’s vibrant and varied electronic music communities. <b>Sibot & Toyota</b> will present their deft amalgam of bass, beats and attitude as well as hip-hop quartet <b>Driemanskap</b> who have taken their self-crafted “spaza” sound around the globe.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Late in 2015 the festival announced plans for a new third stage, and this has been realized via the new “Club Stage”. The festival’s extensive line-up and expansion indicate both an evolution of the festival and the growth of the industry in broader terms.</div>

festival anchored in Cape Town.  With its
fundamental principles still rooted in the unified growth of the South African

many feet pass through the door, it’s not about booking the biggest acts to
ensure radio play or getting as many 'likes' on Facebook as possible. It's
about communicating the ethos, passion and musical creativity that has driven
the scene from its early days to its current position as a global player in the
world of electronic music. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

festival’s evolution from Cape Town’s electronic music festival into an

transform to reflect its global relevance. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

CTEMF is not about how many feet pass through the door, it’s not about booking
the biggest acts to ensure radio play or getting as many 'likes' on Facebook as
possible. It's about communicating the ethos, passion and musical creativity
that has driven the scene from its early days to its current position as a
global player in the world of electronic music. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
