Star FM’s turntablist Otis Fraser will tonight stir up things at the up-market Grain Lounge Bar situated at the Newlands Shopping Centre for what has been dubbed the “Feel Good Friday” party. More popularly known on the decks as The Flow, Otis will serenade music lovers with a flawless delivery that fans have loved and enjoyed over the years. Now presenting “The Crossover”, an afternoon show on the leading commercial radio from Mondays to Thursdays, The Flow brings top-notch and unrivalled deejaying skills on the club scene.
It is always a joy to listen to The Flow especially when he throws down some master mixes be it R’n’B, hip-hop, house or dancehall.

Hate or love him, when it comes to deejaying in Zimbabwe you cannot leave out The Flow. Like his stage name suggests, music literally flows like water downstream and every track it’s a banger.

The Flow plays at the Grain after another brilliant show by Kelvin Sifelani a week ago where the Soul Supreme took soul music enthusiasts to a new level. Over the years, The Flow has been staging gigs in London and Leeds over the years. A part-time producer, he shot to fame as a radio and club DJ in the early 90s, having been a hit on then Radio 3 (Power FM) and ZBCTV’s Teen Scene.

He left Zimbabwe for South Africa where he produced “Tsodiyo” and “Final Battle” for the late Lebo Mathosa of Boom Shaka and Bongo Maffin, respectively.
He then moved to Botswana where he continued with television broadcasting and radio work. He has also contributed to the pioneering projects of other producers, including Skizo.
It is always a joy to listen to The Flow be it in the club or on radio. He returned to join Zimbabwe’s leading radio Star FM, the first commercial station to hit the airwaves.

Kudzai Matongo aka Dee Nosh the host at The Grain, said music lovers should come in their numbers and enjoy the cool vibes.
“We are hosting DJ Otis tonight and we take pride in that we were the first people to bring The Flow to Harare when he was still based in Botswana. There is going to be a lot of energy and a great selection of music at the party as Otis takes over the ones and twos.

“Musically, expect nothing but the best in latest club hits as well as exciting master mixes when Otis plays back-to-back with Taf Miles,” Dee Nosh said.
