South African Roots and Global Inspirations

Reflecting on his decision to launch the project in collaboration with South African artists, Tunde explains, “South Africa actually chose me! I grew up in Lagos, Nigeria, and listened to iconic artists like Sunny Ade, Fela Kuti, Hugh Masekela, Miriam Makeba. When a friend in Cape Town asked if I fancied doing a duet with a South African artist, a light bulb went off in my head.” The EP celebrates this musical heritage while embracing the international troubadour tradition that has long fascinated Tunde.

Songs from the album have already generated over 600 Million TikTok views and the first single "You Don't Ignore" hit charts around the world including France, Canada, Brazil and Mexico. The focus single for the album will be '"Cruel Heart" which will be accompanied by a music video directed by Quentin Deronzier (Doja Cat, The Weeknd, Drake, Maluma, etc.)

"I started composing Cruel Heart in 2019 during a trip to California. The vocal hook that makes up the chorus had been stuck in my head for several years. My friend Hugo, whom you know as Madeon, wanted to participate in the writing process. We often have late-night discussions on various topics: from the paradoxes of life in Los Angeles to our shared passion for investing in characters to write from their perspective. For Cruel Heart, we wanted to detail all the toxic traits we observe in many passionate romantic relationships. The darkness of the arrangement and the musical intention perfectly fit this theme." - Petit Biscuit ]]> Relationships Sat, 10 Aug 2024 12:44:00 +0200 0 0 Petit Biscuit joins Danny Painter to chat about his new single! 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 15:43 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1469393 https://iono.fm/e/1469393

Craig explains the inspiration behind ‘Falling in Love,’ saying, “This song is my anthem to the chaos of chasing boys who are unavailable. I joke about needing heartbreak for inspiration, but this track proves it! It's about a particular boy I fell for after just one night together—a reminder of how embarrassingly fast I catch feelings, especially for those who aren't available in that way. There's something thrilling about falling for someone who's always just a bit out of reach. It's chaotic, it's painful, and if you step back, it's kind of hilarious. This track is me owning up to my messy love life. What’s a little heartbreak anyway?”

Hierdie aangrypende verhaal reflekteer op die besef dat soms die moedigste daad is om los te laat. Sy diep lirieke en emosionele melodieë bied troos en insig aan diegene wat soortgelyke stryde ervaar.

Tian deel dat ‘'Knip die Tou' handel oor verhoudings waarin jy net aanhou probeer, selfs wanneer dinge blykbaar nie uitwerk nie. Ek was in die verlede in 'n paar verhoudings waar ons sou baklei, opbreek en dan weer saam sou wees. Dit lyk asof ek vasgevang is in 'n siklus waar ek steeds dieselfde probleme ondervind terwyl ek probeer om dinge reg te stel wat ooglopend stukkend is. Dit was iets waarmee ek vir 'n rukkie gesukkel het, soort van dinge tot 'n gevolgtrekking te bring. Ek het nog altyd die oortuiging gehad dat iets moet uitwerk ... die klassieke ‘Liefde is genoeg’ ingesteldheid. Ongelukkig is dit nie altyd die situasie nie. Soms is verhoudings nie bedoel om te hou nie, en aangesien jy nie die kwessie kan aanpak nie, is dit die beste om op te breek as om jou verhouding verder te beskadig. Om dit verder uit te brei as wat nodig is, veroorsaak uiteindelik meer skade as goed vir alle betrokke partye.’ ]]> Relationships Fri, 01 Mar 2024 12:22:00 +0200 0 0 Tian Nienaber Kragtige Nuwe Enkelsnit en Video 'Knip die Tou' 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 9:23 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1411643 https://iono.fm/e/1411643

Singer-songwriter Werner Olckers is set to captivate audiences once again with the release of his latest music video, "Gunsteling," a visual adventure that serves as a metaphorical farewell to his former project, "Wrestlerish." The video showcases Olckers' lifelong passion for professional wrestling, incorporating humor and a touch of nostalgia while bidding adieu to the past.

In a daring display of commitment to his art, Olckers puts his body on the line, getting slammed and submitted by the APWA champion, "Ananzi," in a fun yet grueling shoot. This cinematic journey is a testament to Olckers' dedication to pushing boundaries and exploring unconventional avenues within the Afrikaans music industry.

The video also features Olckers' unique sense of humor, a characteristic that has become synonymous with his work. Long-time friend and former bandmate, Nax from Van Pletzen, joins the cast, injecting a sense of fun and hilarity that complements Olckers' artistic vision.

Teaming up with the renowned singer and producer, Gino Lee, the two not only put together a powerful composition, but the song, titled ‘Caught Up’, also served as a cathartic process for Thapelo and an anthem for same-sex relationships.

Fresh from his own broken relationship, the songwriter was experiencing a whirlwind of emotions at the time and decided to put pen to paper.

He explains, “I was in a relationship with someone I loved deeply. It was that ‘I’ll do anything for you’ kind of love. I gave everything I had, but got nothing in return. I knew I was fighting a losing battle to a point where I was having sleepless nights.”

Thapelo, knowing the relationship was toxic, finally built up the courage to leave. Through this song, the singer hopes to create awareness that people of the LGBTQI community experience love and durable relationships, same as everyone else.

He says, “I write about my personal experiences, but the music speaks to similar experiences that others can relate to. There are still many people who don’t understand the concept of homosexual relationships, but we also fall in love and enter into committed relationships. We go through the same challenges that heterosexual people do.” ]]> Relationships Wed, 28 Jun 2023 12:22:00 +0200 0 0 ‘Love Has No Gender’ sing South African artists Thapelo and Gino Lee in new single 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 20:03 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1319044 https://iono.fm/e/1319044 Relationships Thu, 08 Jun 2023 22:10:00 +0200 0 0 WILL LINLEY SHARES HIS NEW SINGLE 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 13:50 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1318372 https://iono.fm/e/1318372 Relationships Wed, 07 Jun 2023 12:51:00 +0200 0 0 Deon Groot chats about his latest single 'Die Een" 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 19:59 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1301977 https://iono.fm/e/1301977

South African Pop star Joss Austin, recently teamed up with American Singer-songwriter Baker Grace, on the endearing single ‘Missing You’. Jacaranda FM listeners have been loving the single on their station’s airwaves, so Baker and Joss have given Jacaranda FM a special gift: an exclusive acoustic performance of ‘Missing You’.

Joss Austin, who’s had multiple hits across local radio and worked with some of the biggest names in the music business, signed to US label Riveting Music just over a year ago. The label is also home to US singer-songwriter Baker Grace who has been captivating international audiences with her incredible solo releases. It was a no-brainer to bring these 2 incredible voices together on ‘Missing You’ and now fans will get to enjoy the stripped-down version.

As with the initial recording of ‘Missing You’, once-again Joss and Baker connected across the ocean to create this acoustic version with Joss recording from South Africa and Baker from the USA. This is what they both had to say about producing this special version:

“Over the moon that we decided to strip down this song. The essence of where it came from started with guitar and Baker Grace in a room over in the USA and so I’m glad I got to become part of that in this acoustic version. Really amplifies the message of the song that I feel it resonates with so many at some point in their life. Excited to hear what people have to say about it.”
– Joss Austin

“I really love the acoustic version because it gives the lyrics and raw emotion in this song a chance to shine. It also emphasizes how well our voices work together. It is always so great connecting with Joss and working together miles apart, although challenging with time differences. I recorded it in my home studio in New Jersey and the video was recorded on an iPhone in my bedroom. Amazing what you can do with just one phone and one light these days!”

“The idea of a podcast came as a natural extension of the work related to South African Psychiatry, which provides a platform for content that is not only for the discipline of psychiatry but importantly about the discipline,” says Professor Szabo. “The written word is one thing, the spoken word another. Moreover, the interactive nature of the podcast medium allows for the emergence of thoughts and ideas beyond a published piece.” He hopes that the podcasts will reach clinical professionals as well as resonate with the general public.

“If patient care is at the centre of our efforts, then information impacting on such care should be accessible. Patients have families, friends, colleagues – all of whom are impacted by patient well-being. In this sense, patients impact communities and society at large,” Professor Szabo adds. And October is Mental Health awareness month.

Professor Szabo selected the title of the podcast series carefully. It is intentionally slightly provocative but at the same time intended to highlight that there is a narrative to mental illness, and it is a layered story. ]]> Relationships Wed, 01 Dec 2021 18:35:00 +0200 0 0 From this podcast to another, mental health matters! 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 24:00 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1132728 https://iono.fm/e/1132728 Relationships Wed, 01 Dec 2021 18:35:00 +0200 0 0 Connell Cruise is celebrating this December! 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 25:29 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1124917 https://iono.fm/e/1124917

Bras are an essential part of a woman’s wardrobe and wearing a bra offers the following benefits:

- Support to breasts and shoulders.

- It helps improve posture.

- It offers comfort.

- It prevents sagging.

Wearing a bra can also boost confidence. Sadly, many girls who are living in poverty can’t afford to buy bras.

This once upon a time lawyer has thrown his suit aside and plunged headfirst into the world of directing with explosive results.

Robert released a short film, A MOMENT, which stars SA-born, Hollywood-based actor Sean Cameron Michael, as well as Jonathan Boynton-Lee. The film has been picked up by three international film sites.

Movie-blogger.com, Film Shortage, and Think Shorts, and earlier this month, Robert received the news that the film was accepted into the Los Angeles Film Awards.

The film was shot in one long continuous take. It is short, measuring about 90 seconds, however, there are no cuts or edits between the footage. Using a Bolt, Robert is one of only a handful of directors who have had access to this incredible piece of tech.

He chats to me about the film, but also about changing his life path at 30, proving that you don't ever need to have it all together!

This year, the band look to keep their foot on the pedal with the release of their much anticipated next single titled, ‘22’ , an upbeat summer anthem already finding its place on charts at home with nostalgia-riddled lyrics which throws back to their early days - living and touring in their adolescence.

‘When writing this song I wanted to channel a feel-good energy of our journey so far as a band and as individuals, which also relates closely enough to the memories we all experienced in our early twenties. A care-free, adventurous and invincible time of life,’ says frontman Tristan Coetzee.

The new single speaks to the trials of growing up and getting tied up in the laborious realities of adulthood, often losing touch with our younger selves. This is rounded up with a call to shed that pressure and go back to the care-free living we know and want.

Armed with a ukulele and a strong will to use her voice for good, Sarah explains the motivation behind this, her first single:

"Love in our hearts’ is about recognising our shared humanity in a time of increasing social tension and ecological decay,” says Sarah. “It speaks to the fact that most people have a lot to unlearn, while still having the ability to love, and to change. It also speaks to the fact that ‘love’ as we currently understand it, may need to be redefined to include aspects and ideas that can lead to real positive change. This kind of revolutionary love could help us save ourselves and restore our home planet.” ]]> Relationships Thu, 25 Mar 2021 19:16:00 +0200 0 0 Sarah Robyn Farrell has love in her heart! 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 13:33 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1012539 https://iono.fm/e/1012539 In South Africa, a matric dance is the first time many pupils are made to feel special. But not all can afford the occasion. This was apparent to design duo Fagin Hardine and Adri Andrews of Paarl. Wanting to provide for the youth of their community, they decided to honour the final-year students in style.

Hardine and Andrews founded their clothing brand, Ke’lab, in 2017. After noticing a number of matriculants were unable to purchase their own outfits, the small business joined forces with The Giving Hand to establish The Matric Drive. “By designing for these students, we’re able to create beautiful and long-lasting memories,” Hardine says. Sketching, stitching, and hemming away, the team gifted garments to hard-working matriculants. “It’s more than just a gown,” Andrews says. “It’s a celebration of academic achievement.” ]]> Relationships Thu, 18 Mar 2021 19:18:00 +0200 0 0 “Every student is worthy of being celebrated.” These designers sew pride for matriculants 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 6:53 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1011871 https://iono.fm/e/1011871 Relationships Wed, 17 Mar 2021 18:55:00 +0200 0 0 Jethro Tait is a 'weirdo' and you should be, too 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 9:26 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/1011870 https://iono.fm/e/1011870

Having already climbed to Everest base camp, Kilimanjaro was next on his list. Neither doctors nor his family approved of his ambitions. But Gangiah had made up his mind. Immediately after surgery, he walked up and down the hospital corridors to start training. “My body may have been weak but my mind was a thousand times stronger,” Gangiah says.

Drawing strength from the arbitrary item, Mokhoabane is transforming his past traumas into powerful works of art. After losing his mother at the age of six, Mokhoabane’s life was thrown into disarray. Once cheerful childhood memories became stained by abuse from his new step mother.

Turning to his creativity in times of great hardship, he started teaching himself how to draw. “I would wake up and say, ‘I hate the situation I am in, but stand up and go get your pen’,” Mokhoabane says. Without the funds to afford professional training after high school, he was rejected from art galleries and struggled to establish himself in the industry. Yet he remained resolute. Honing his skills in his free time and sharing his work on social media, Mokhoabane’s work soon began to receive the recognition it deserved. ]]> Relationships Thu, 28 Jan 2021 19:01:00 +0200 0 0 The power of a pen: How this artist drew himself out of abuse and poverty 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 14:01 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/986996 https://iono.fm/e/986996

“My obligation as a photographer is to take a story that hasn’t been heard and bring it into the public,” Rubin says. His revealing work zooms in on disadvantaged neighbourhoods, like those of the Cape Flats. These suburbs are stigmatised as violent and gang-ridden. Rubin’s subjects receive nothing but averted eyes from most, but he is determined to rouse his audience into recognising their humanity and dignity. He’s made personal connections with gang leaders and those who live on the streets – and it’s not just because he’s curious. The filmmaker has real struggles in common with rejected members of society. “I’ve had very big drug problems in my past and I didn’t finish school,” Rubin says.He builds relationships with anyone who’ll speak to him, and is granted a rare gift because of it: trust. Through empathetic and compassionate conversation, the 24-year-old is invited into a world that few see. “I believe that it is my job to create positive change,” Rubin says. His short films have showcased a self-taught builder who transformed his shack into a palatial home, driving lessons with his housekeeper, and the unnervingly empty streets of Cape Town in the first few weeks of the COVID-19 lockdown. Rubin uplifts his subjects as well as his viewers through his films. Shining a light on those around him, he shifts perspectives.

At eighteen Julia decided to further herself artistically, moving to the UK to study music production at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA) learning the creative skills that have led to her unmistakable sound, one that draws ties to her childhood idols.


Producing and writing all of her own music, is a key part of her sound that’s won her fans across the globe, yet she finds herself having to make the distinction that she IS her own producer, a question rarely thrown at male artists.



“Maybe it's just a reflection on me and my past experiences in male-dominant sessions but I feel like I am more reserved when I write with a group of guys as if my ideas aren’t as worthy and I’m just there to sing, even though writing is where my love really lies.”, says Julia, ‘’Writing is the ultimate form of catharsis for me.” ]]> Relationships Wed, 20 Jan 2021 09:14:00 +0200 0 0 Julia Church is our dance song inspiration in 2021 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 14:06 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/982927 https://iono.fm/e/982927 This year, it gets bigger, better, and 'gooder'!

For decades of South Africa’s history, natural hair was stigmatised and treated as inferior. People of colour are still impacted by this today.

“Growing up with kinky hair was a difficult journey because people are just looking down at you,” Bocks says. Now, she’s fighting back with the most powerful weapon – love.

Bocks started the Citrusdal Natural Hair Beauties group with her sister to instil dignity and worth in her community. Through this initiative, Bocks offers workshops where girls are taught how to nurture their hair.

“The best hair is healthy hair,” she says. Untangling harmful perceptions, Bocks is sending lies about cultural identity down the drain and helping youth embrace themselves. ]]> Relationships Thu, 19 Nov 2020 18:48:00 +0200 0 0 The natural hair advocate untangling stigma and instilling self-love 0 0 Jacaranda FM full 9:55 Danny Painter https://iono.fm/e/957750 https://iono.fm/e/957750 And this year, the journey continues!
