Durban's 23 year-old producer Emo Kid presents Gqomtera on Gqom Oh!. The record actually explores sgubhu, a strain of South African dance music that shares many stylistic parallels with gqom, though it is always written with a 4x4 beat. Like DJ Lag before him, an artist widely considered the king of gqom, Emo Kid is also considered a pioneer in Durban. At eight tracks long, Gqomtera provides a comprehensive overview of the sgubhu sound, with the aim of taking the listener on their own "Durban Journey". "I wanted to show the uniqueness of my own style which I would describe as more musical," Emo Kid explains, "you can feel the music when you listen but it still hits hard with that gqom flavor." That gqom flavor, powered by hard, fast, uncompromising drums, provides a solid core from which everything else functions. Bright, shimmering trance synths are featured on "Futuristic Gqom". There's also space for harder, deeper cuts, the charging pace and power of "Insimbi Yase Dubane", and the anthemic "Asbambeki" featuring local crew TLC Fam. Capturing the raw, street sounds of his city, Emo Kid is the latest Durban artist to take the music global and with Gqomtera, he puts sgubhu firmly on the map. Includes a download card with four bonus tracks: "Enkwarini" featuring vocalist Fawell, "Ground Shaker", "Digital Response", and "Isukile" featuring Mapopo.

Should have been longer
Format: Paperback
A great series. Wish it was a bit longer. N.K. Jemisin and Jamal Campbell did a great job. The book arrived faster than expected. DC compacts are pretty decent.

One of the Best GL Stories
Format: Paperback
This book was a standout. A new Lantern is great, especially since we don't have to focus on a previously established lantern. Lots of good mystery and detective style story telling. I loved the art style. The smaller size of the book didn't do anything specific for me, but I could see how someone would like it. Definitely need more stories with Jo

A Modern Classic
Format: Paperback
As a long time Green Lantern fan I can honestly say this is one of the BEST Green Lantern stories of the past decade! The art & writing blend together to make an engaging and exciting experience! A must buy for GL fans old and new! And a great way to introduce the concept to new readers.

Good story, poor material
Format: Paperback
This was an interesting story, great illustrations with good dialogue. However, the compact comic binding is very questionable. The paper is good and the print is vivid, but the book literally doesn't hold up. I know that they are cheap (got mine for about $9), but every single compact comic I've bought (court of owls, Gotham City Sirens, and this green lantern story) falls apart. These appear to be single use (or half use) only. Unless you have patex or some other paper-friendly adhesive to reinforce the spine, it might make more sense to wait for a sale to buy the larger versions of these stories (except Gotham City Sirens, had some good moments, but I wouldn't recommend buying it compact or otherwise).
