When performing live, they are DJs so to speak, but no predestined CD or Vinyl is involved. Everything is created live, allowing a completely unique, spontaneous performance at every show.
The album is a double-disc release consisting of a CD, as well as a DVD, which features a documentary\interview, and VJ set by the legendary group Iaminawe - mixing videos of Goldfish’s live performance and animation to the sounds of the album.
It is a continuation of tracks that have developed live and in the studio in the past two years, combining influences from jazz, dance, African music and downtempo, into a unique, truly African sound, and features a wide variety of different guest artists from South Africa and Dominic’s place of birth, Zimbabwe.
The album has been mastered in the UK by Soundmasters who have mastered the likes of Zero7, Fatboyslim, Depeche Mode and Groove Armada.
Caught in the loop is now available in South Africa.. The album will also be available online to order or download at www.goldfishlive.com, it is being distributed throughout South Africa by Kurse Music Distribution.
