We haven’t been doing any radio shows for a while no and aren’t planning to do any in the near future. Please check out our Mixcloud for older shows.

We haven’t uploaded to our Mixcloud in a while, for the same reason as we haven’t updated this website in a while: plain old laziness. But here is this week’s show, the last one before heading out to Tankwa Town for AfrikaBurn 2022. It is jam packed with South African music, some of my favourite tunes from the 70 till now.

Yes, the website is still alive (or better: alive again, it was offline for a while). We haven’t updated here in a while, because… frankly because I am lazy. All the info you need to make AfrikaBurn 2022 the best experience it could be is to be found on the Quaggapedia: https://quaggapedia.afrikaburn.com/ which is (kinda) replacing the WTF guide. Check it out and see you in Tankwa Town in less than a week! Exciting!!!

Inteview I talked about on the show with the late, great Andrew Weatherall who’s approach to music and DJ’ing definitely resonates with me and inspires me. Check out the full interview, including a transcript on https://www.redbullmusicacademy.com/lectures/andrew-weatherall-idiosyncratic-adventures
