For a genre not considered in this mainstream space, Mp3bullet.ng decided to take a spin on the Nigerian Electronic music scene with some of its top promoters like Sigag Lauren, Sensei Lo, et al, explaining why it can’t be underrated.

Though unrecognized, Nigerian Electronic music, which blends local elements such as percussion with Western electronic influences, is thriving among a growing and diverse audience.

As NET would have it; “It is an untested territory that no big brand or name has been willing to associate with themselves yet.”

This means it is a less profitable business to engage and with that, labels will find it hard to sign anyone in that line.

Now, balling down to the reality of Electronic music otherwise known as Electronic Dance Music (EDM) in Nigeria, a good number of young talented Nigerians have put in their best to promote this style of sound in whatever ways they can.

Sensei Lo (Nigerian electronic Music)

Being a full-time nurse, DJ, and music producer, Sensei Lo is another strong contender in the promotion of this art.

The 34-year-old Cleopatra started off with a feature on Electronic Music Began In Africa project by Moto Kiatu for the track, ‘Yele.’

Then, she proceeded in playing for various shows and events. Having become a doyen in the EDM space, Sensei decided to focus on expanding its relevance.

 Maze X Mxtreme

This beautiful combo as producers took it upon themselves to think outside the box in making a change to the “common Afro sound.”

According to them, they have always loved the Afro vibe, however, it was too common and was not diverse.

Further elaborating their choice of sound, they were inspired by David Guetta’s Titanium melody and how it could capture thousands!!!

Considering it a “virgin area in the industry”, they have taken it upon themselves to sell the EDM potentials to the world.
