Okzharp & Manthe Ribane - Closer Apart (2 LP)

Closer Apart is the debut collaborative album from UK producer Okzharp and South African artist Manthe Ribane, released on the acclaimed Hyperdub label in 2018. Crafted across cities like London, Johannesburg, Paris, Vienna, and Cape Town, the album offers a vibrant fusion of electronic and hip-hop influences set against Manthe’s striking vocals and inventive spoken word.

This project stands out for its globe-spanning creative process and genre-blending sound, weaving together elements of jazz, gospel, and club rhythms in tracks like the epic, anthemic “Time Machine.” With artwork originating from Nirox Arts Residency in Johannesburg, Closer Apart captures a singular partnership at the crossroads of visual art, movement, and sonic exploration.
