In a year where the world has been trying to recover from the effects of the pandemic, the events space has been flourishing regardless with the likes of Y FM's Kojo Manuel at the helm of affairs.

With big concerts and various big gatherings out of the question, new concepts emerged as Kojo Manuel began his PlayHouse Mix series with various DJs (DJ Mic Smith, DJ Loft, DJ Millzy, Endwd DJ, DJ Putin etc) to entertain party people from the comfort of their homes.

But what gained most prominence is his exclusive Cups And Bass Mix with DJ Loft that crossed the borders of Ghana and Africa with all five instalments.
