Radio Workshop: Beats, rhythms and harmony

Mathew Moolman

Welcome to the Radio Workshop!

We sing along to their music, take refuge in their lyrics and let their rhythms move us. But who are the people behind the musicians and how did they start their musical journey? The Radio Workshop gets personal with Capetonian musician Mathew Moolman and New York house sensation Tortured Soul.

Radio Workshop: Complaining, whinging or whining?

Welcome to the Radio Workshop!

Unhappy about something in life? Complaining is usually the next thing we do. When our rights have been violated we complain, often through protest. When we get bad service we complain. When our relationships are troubled, yes, we complain. The Radio Workshop got an earful about what is weighing on the minds of many South Africans.
