A moment with Mondli Mlauza

Hello to all of the Tan89Media reader's. Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to share a bit about myself. My name is Mondli "Sgoloza" Mlauza and i am an almost 30 year old Sowetan in Orlando East. My interest in media started at a time when I didn't even know what media is, let alone be a part of it. Like all kids who grew up in the 90's, I had a desire of being on YoTV, but just didn't have the know how. In my youth, I developed a very deep obsession with radio. I have quite a number of radio stories to share, but I think my love for radio actually started in my youth. Radio is what actually made me fall in love with the media, and I have been in love for about 20 years now. I am currently working on officially launching my company in 2020, but CoVID-19 has made me alter my plans slightly. I also don't want to mention any details now, but I am working on a deal that will assist me to grow further in the award space. For Radio Lover

The birth of AneDessMengel was as organic as the wild fruits growing in the forest. "Initially the idea was to work as a duo with Kgosi Boipelo. The plan was to work on a collaborative Mixtape and Slk was our go to producer for the project. I think after we did the #NouSo Joint, we decided to feature a verse from him also and from there on we found ourselves working on the project together. It wasn't a weird decision. We have been working together on music for

Dr Feel brings you joy and soul on new EP titled IKIGAI

Johannesburg born Music Producer and Dj, Dr Feel, has earned a global following for blending African and Electronic music stylings with a Potter's sensibilities and touch.  Known for his remixes of artists such as Black Coffee, Zakes Bantwini, Eno Soul, Dj Maphorisa and Kabza, Dj Zinhle as well as many others, Dr Feel has been one of South Africa's most accomplished and respected unsigned artist since his debut on Ifani's album(I believes in me) IKIGAI is Dr Feel’s 1st Afro House studio EP and his most intimate to date. Released through Maluku Records, the EP contains an honest collection of songs straight from the soul. Ikigai is a Japanese word whose meaning translates roughly to a reason for being, encompassing joy, a sense of purpose and meaning and a feeling of well-being. Hence it fits with the vision of his EP, which embodies and translates just that.  Created in his home studio, IKIGAI features super talented female artist called Zhane. The sty
