About Sounds

Sub Sahara Sounds works out of Nairobi and has spent 6 years reading rooms from behind the decks, from small private bookings through to four-hundred-person product launches. The style is open-format: beatmatching live, taking requests on the fly and moving between genres so the energy never dips. The approach starts with what your day actually is, not with a package that has to be talked into fitting it.

A planning call covers must-plays, do-not-plays and how the evening should build, and you leave that conversation knowing exactly what happens, in what order, and what you receive afterwards. Every booking includes a planning portal for your timeline and song lists, plus custom intros and announcements. Adjusting the plan as things firm up is expected rather than penalised.

Based in Nairobi, Sub Sahara Sounds works in fr / en, with bookings from 280 000 KES. Send the date and a rough outline and a written, itemised quote comes back within 24h. Peak-season Saturdays are usually taken eight to twelve months in advance, so it is worth asking early — and there is no charge until you accept.
