This year's series marks the first time the event has boasted a heavy array of imports (the inaugural 2012 festival featured a 100% South African lineup). Joining international headliners <strong>The Original Jazzy Jay</strong> (US), <strong>Caspa</strong> (UK), and deep house's <strong>Dixon</strong> (Germany), are South African heavyweights the likes of <strong>Black Coffee</strong>, <strong>Dirty Paraffin</strong>, and <strong>Culoe De Song</strong> (head <a href="http://www.ctemf.com/lineup-artists/" target="_blank">here</a> for the full lineup). As CTEMF braces to kick off tomorrow with its most international roster thus far, we thought we'd run down some names from the impressive crop of hometown heroes slated to carry the bill. Below are eight Cape Town-based artists we expect to sound mind-boggling this weekend.</p><p><div class="preroll-video"></div><ora-player></ora-player></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong><a href="https://soundcloud.com/fevertrails" target="_blank">Fever Trails</a></strong> (aka Nicolaas van Reenen)</p><p>Time: Sat. 8 Feb, 17:45 - 18:30</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/83934182&color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong><a href="https://soundcloud.com/haezer" target="_blank">Haezer</a></strong></p><p>Time: Sat. 8 Feb, 0:00-01:00</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/115619576&color=8e56e0&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong><a href="http://soundcloud.com/sedgewarbler" target="_blank">Sedge Warbler</a></strong></p><p>Time: Sat. 8 Feb, 19:15 - 20:00</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/103088140&color=8e56e0&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong><a href="https://soundcloud.com/stone-age-citizens" target="_blank">Stone-Age Citizens</a></strong></p><p>Time: Fri. 7 Feb, 16:30-17:30</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/82617657&color=8e56e0&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong><a href="https://soundcloud.com/ms-cj" target="_blank">Miss CJ</a></strong></p><p>Time: Sat. 8 Feb, 13:30-14:30</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/89179380&color=8e56e0&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong><a href="https://twitter.com/SirVincentSA" target="_blank">Sir Vincent</a></strong></p><p>Time: Sun. 9 Feb, 13:30-14:30</p><p><span style="display:block;position:relative;padding-top:56.25%;" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="204768c0c896d1357408da167337282c"><iframe type="lazy-iframe" data-runner-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Oil6rPEJJxA?rel=0" width="100%" height="auto" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;"></iframe></span></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong>Dan C & Matt Blitz</strong></p><p>Time: Fri. 7 Feb, 17:30-18:30</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/129372371&color=8e56e0&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><strong><a href="https://soundcloud.com/malcolm_skene" target="_blank">Malcolm & Ian Skene</a></strong></p><p>Time: Sat. 8 Feb, 15:30-17:00</p><p><iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/123342725&color=8e56e0&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_artwork=true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p>——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————</p><p><a href="http://www.ctemf.com/" target="_blank">CTEMF</a> runs Friday through Sunday (7-9 February) at the Grand Parade in Cape Town.
