*2016 · Goon Club Allstars · No. 1 in [Gqom](https://waxonia.com/genre/gqom/)*

Written at seventeen and the first gqom track to get a video. Three elements, no resolution, and a low end that makes the case for the whole genre in ninety seconds.

### [Trip to New York](https://waxonia.com/track/dj-lag--trip-to-new-york/)

*2017 · No. 5 in [Gqom](https://waxonia.com/genre/gqom/)*

Released first over WhatsApp, which is how most gqom actually travels. The most exportable thing Durban made, and it never needed a label to prove it.
