I got a call a couple of weeks ago from Greater Than PR in Cape Town wanting to know if I would come with them to Oppikoppi for one night. When I was told it was Jose Cuervo event, my reaction swung around confusedly. Hmm, once night, lots of tequila...

Goldfish have spent the last two years coming from nowhere to really shake some people's perceptions of SA music, live music and dance music. As you will see from this intervierw, they are not comfortable with the Commercial House label, yet continue...
OK this one is a question, because, after starting to write this rant on 3 separate occasions I cannot get to a sensible answer. Why is it that white, English speaking South Africans do not buy into their own culture? Why do we: Not buy CD’s released...
