Selective Live is an Arts entertainment venue under the company of Selective Hearing production company that allows artists from around South Africa to showcase their talent and allows underprivileged artists to share the platform with well known professional artists in an equal plane. Venue is Situated in the heart of Cape Town CBD has been running since 2018 and its only Black owned Business that has been playing partner to many artists in the City. In addition to the current art portfolio (fine arts, and visual arts) our events would bring a new element to a music performance, art exhibition, local film screening e.t.c.We mostly host live music events at Selective Live, and we also offer Studio quality recordings to artists - of which we now host live video streams on social media platforms such as Facebook and Youtube. Our events, live music streamed to South African, and international households offers a lens of the newly formed sounds of our country - featuring multiple genres of music - from AfroBeats to Neo-soul.In a time such as this covid pandemic attack on human beings, we took a step back to explore the online shows and streaming in order for our artist to get exposure to the international market. When explorative, afro-centric live music in Cape Town faced a decline in availability and patrons, we realised that most consumers struggled to find spaces of comfort, and enjoyment of live music and initiated the Selective Live organisation.The founder Luyanda Mafiyana and Selective Live team, made of researchers and artists, had been organising and hosting multiple musical events that included bits of comedy, film, photography in the city of Cape Town.
