Edgar Ndazi

Love/London/Basketball is an audiovisual album, based on the people that I encountered in the close-knit London basketball community. Music has always been inextricably linked to basketball, with rap closely aligned. However, I sought to introduce my Africa-based electronica into the equasion. All footage was filmed by myself as I sought to create an intimate portrayal of the community that was seeking to recover, after the pandemic severely affected basketball and its participants. Footage was filmed in a number of locations around London. Musically I sought to create a cohesive body of work, with energy being a consistentoverall theme.
