| Kawaiicore, Kwai core, Kwai - Core |

| Kawaiicore, Kwai core, Kwai - Core |


So there has been some confusion over the spelling regarding this new music phenomenon called "Kwaicore", it is not spelt Kawaiicore it is not spelt Kwai core with a space and it is most certainly not spelt Kwai - Core with a hyphen. It is spelt Kwaicore for the simple reason, that it is KWAIto and hardCORE music merged into one.

News regarding | Kwaicore, Metallica and Mzekezeke |


So as we all know, one of the most popular hardcore rock bands of time is coming to South Africa. Word on the street is that this band is performing the first Kwaicore song live. Metallica has supposedly joined with South African Kwaito artist Mzekezeke to perform the first live rendition of Kwaicore song. Mzekezeke has been sighted with Metallica, and was overheard talking with the band by an anonymous Metallica fan. According to the fan he said that "I have come up with a chorus that I believe will appeal to all genres, and the beat leads nicely into your guitar solo." Metallic simply replied; "That's Kwai, we can't wait to lay down all the work we've done and collaborate in studio with you."

So fans we might be the first country to witness a live Kwaicore song, in other words get to Computicket and GET THOSE TICKETS!!!

Keep it real...

So the other day I put a post on FaceBook regarding a pen, a notepad, a chopstick plus some other objects and told you to sit with those while listing to John Butler's song Ocean.

For all those who tried it and want to know why I suggested it, well the answer is simple, it's fun and a good way to get creative. The fun starts when trying to keep up with the percussion of the song using only the chopstick and the other objects as drums, and then trying to add lyrics of your own. It becomes even more fun when you start altering the timing and tempo of the percussion.

This is an example of how you could possibly go around creating your own Kwaicore music, play Kwaito and then start changing tempos and beats until you have incorporated a hardcore genre into the song...

Remember these are just suggestions and ways to pass the time.

More on | Kwaicore |

So there have been further advancements with Kwaicore, more and more people are slowly catching onto this new trend and are starting to create their own versions of Kwaicore. All though there have not been any major advancements people are also starting to use the lingo of Kwai...

People are trying so hard to jump onto this trend before it goes global that they are buying out domain names for Kwaicore as well as setting up other Kwaicore blogs, there also people that have tried to create what they believe kwaicore is and set up videos on youtube. However these videos do not clearly depict what Kwaicore is, they have not created a compilation of "Kwaito" and one of the "Hardcore" sub genres, they have simply danced to Kwaito music and then danced to Hardcore rock without actually fusing them to create one genre...

So the space is still open to have the first "Correct" Kwaicore video out there, give it a try who knows what will happen.

Keep it real...

| Great Music | Kwaicore | Harlem shake | Kwai | say what?

| Great Music | Kwaicore | Harlem shake | Kwai | say what?


To all you celebrity gossip carvers this is not the blog site for you. I am not here to talk about how stupid Nicki Minaj looks, or what Justin Bieber's latest addiction is. I might however , every now and then, refer you to some really great music and musicians such as John Butler's song OCEAN.

This blog is predominantly here to talk about and discuss the latest creation and sub genre of music, "KWAICORE"... As a music lover I was left to ask how and where this new genre Kwaicore fits in with other genres, and to put it simply, it doesn't. There is already talk about what people consider Kwaicore to be, and the majority of people will tell you that it is a compilation of Kwaito and Hardcore Rock. However this is not one hundred percent correct. Kwaicore is the compilation of yes Kwaito mixed with any other hardcore genre, whether it be rock, punk, mainstream etc.

Kwaicore was the brain child of Alexander Sudheim and has only just recently hit the web, this means that you could be the first person to produce the first ever Kwaicore youtube hit, that is if you decide that the harlem shake has become too mainstream.

Kwaicore is also becoming apart of the twenty-first-centuries vernacular, for example; "that's kwai" meaning that the action performed is "cool" or that the aforementioned is a "good idea". Although Kwaicore pertains specifically to music, the abbreviation "Kwai" is used more in the surfer, skater culture.

That's all for now, keep following to learn more about the world of Kwaicore.
