South-African hip hop window-lickers Die Antwoord are set to perform with London’s Aphex Twin at the London Electronic Dance Festival this weekend.

It won’t be obvious whether the saucer-eyed crowd are happy or frightened as they bear witness to the event, but the recent attention on the ‘interweb’ suggests the former.

It was recently discovered that the group are actually a joke, much like Ali G. We could have guessed that, but you never know, people really are that pathetic sometimes.

Ninja and YO-LANDI are in fact art-school grads who have taken to the stage in the name of art and social awareness. They grew up in the generation that witnessed the apartheid, and it seems their mission is to reflect on their experiences. However, from the perspective of the gated-off white middle class, their experiences may be somewhat limited.

Stay tuned for hilarious footage action.
