  "lineage": "Singeli ultra-high-tempo Tanzanian electronic dance music emerging in 2000s in the Manzese neighborhood of Dar es Salaam from convergence of traditional ngoma drumming with PC-software production. Runs typically at 180-300 BPM with chopped vocal samples, accelerated taarab loops, and aggressive synth riffs over hyper-fast machine-drum kicks. Performance contexts: street-corner sound-system parties, weddings, and post-2017 international festival circuit through Nyege Nyege Tapes Kampala. MC calls out hyper-fast Swahili-Bongo-slang lyrical phrases.",
