Among those performing will be Modeselektor, Byetone, Brodinski and some of the most prominent South African artists working today.

The festival travels to Africa for the first time with A Taste of Sónar in Cape Town, South Africa, organized within the major large format multidisciplinary event Design Indaba, which between the 29 February and 4 March will be transforming the South African city into the international capital of design, with top level speakers and projects in attendancein the fields of graphic design, advertising, cinema, fashion, architecture, visual arts and last but not least, music.

The location of 'A Taste of Sonar' is, as as usual for the festival, an emblematic and unique place. More so in this case, as at Cape Town's City Hall, a building that stands out for it's Edwardian architecture of 1905 and visible from the all over the city. It was the place where Nelson Mandela gave his first speech after having been freed in 1990.

On 2 March, Sónar presents an appetizer for the Barcelona festival, combining established international artists (including Modeselektor, Byetone and Brodinski) with the most exciting artists from the nascent South African scene, such as BLK JKS, Killer Robot, Das Kapital and Fletcher In Dub.
