SplitClub has programmed 1 afro house day across Miami. The club arranges the vessel and the crew and programs the music; a vetted group claims the places and the cost of the day is split across the deck.
The sound
House built on live-feeling percussion — congas, shakers, layered hand drums — with vocals often in Zulu, Xhosa, Portuguese or French, and a bassline that rolls rather than pumps. It is warm, organic and unhurried, and it works in daylight in a way most electronic music does not.
Afro House in Miami
Afro house has become one of the fastest-rising sounds in Miami over the last few years, carried by the international circuit that made Black Coffee and the Keinemusik collective global headliners and by Club Space booking them into the terrace. It bridges Miami's Latin, Caribbean and dance audiences more naturally than any other genre in the city.
How the club programs it
One of the club's strongest-performing formats, and the reason the genre has its own room in the club calendar. Percussion-forward music at moderate volume in open air with the sun on it is close to the condition the genre was written for. The club runs these on Biscayne Bay and has programmed them in Capri and Saint-Tropez.
Every SplitClub day works the same way underneath the music. The club arranges one vessel for one date, with its captain and crew, and programs the route, the hours and the sound. Members claim single places rather than hiring a boat. Contributions are held through our state-of-the-art payment processing system until the day is fully funded — if it does not fill, it does not sail and nobody is charged.

Frequently asked questions
Does SplitClub host Afro house days?
Yes. Afro house is a standing format on the club calendar in Miami, and the club has programmed Afro house and Amapiano days in Capri and Saint-Tropez.
Is Afro house the same as Amapiano?
No. Amapiano is a distinct South African genre built on the log drum and runs slower, around 112 BPM. The two are often programmed together and the club runs a combined format.
What time of day is Afro house programmed?
Usually late afternoon into sunset. The percussion carries daylight well, so these depart earlier than the club's other sunset formats.
