For cultural and creative practitioners and organisations operating in southern Africa, access to funding remains a major challenge. The COVID-19 pandemic has also had a massive impact on government policy, spending and the economy in general, and has seen spending on culture being moved further down the list of priorities. Further, the cultural and creative industries repeatedly cite four main areas where investment is needed for growth, which are increased visibility, mobility including access to new markets, finance and support structures.

BIO

Destyn Maloya is an Afrobeat musician from Reunion.

He has performed during countless concerts, in Reunion (Sakifo Festival, Tempo festival, to name but a few, and in the great Indian Ocean (Rodrigue island festival kreol, Madagascar Festival Donia, Au Seychelles Festival Kreol , Mayotte, Anjouan Medina Festival) In India Festival Isai global Chennai, in mainland France, in Europe and most recently in March 2020 in Australia for the Womadelaide and in New Zealand for the womad.

Plays traditional music, the maloya - this musical form which, like the blues, is rooted in slavery, has close ties to Creole culture. Lulled by the winds of the coast and Reunion Islands, this dynamic group of 6 members celebrates and defends its culture, carrying the torch of their ancestors. With its fascinating and playful percussions, DESTYN MALOYA has not stopped developing and changing over the past twenty years, bringing new approaches to their music and revealing rhythms with very mixed colors. It is a transmission of passion and tradition to future generations.

On stage, Ramaye Fabrice, singer and singer, leads the boat: his taut and incisive "Flow", and the power of his voice really impresses. He is surrounded by a percussion artillery which raises the temperature and the audience is trained in the musical current it gives off. With assorted traditional percussions, he set the stage on fire. The lyrics of the group's music remind listeners, like a "homecoming", of the sufferings of slaves, their struggles for freedom and their daily problems: jealousy , manipulation, illness. The versatility of the group members also gives the group a great musical variation.

Their youth and their explosive talent reinvent the traditional maloya to embellish it: salègy rhythms, Samba, ska, ragga, afro béât. Go wild, served by a breathtaking stage performance of generosity. On a rhythm of hell, DESTYN offers us a unique music; energetic and powerful, emergence of new talents of Reunionese music.
