ABOUT

In 1981, Unity, a new South African band, is making waves with their album Erube Jambo. Produced by the team of Van Blerk/Roos & Greg Cutler, it features succulent voices and melodies, psychedelic Moog, Hohner clavinet and Fender Rhodes, all surrounded by Afro-folky guitars.

More than 40 years later, Voom Voom Records reissued this incredible album and offered Poy-Poy Makhubela (The band leader) the opportunity to reform a band! 

Poy-Poy has been playing with Brenda Fassie, Don Laka and even Boom Shaka or Trompies.


Fred "Voom Voom" Spider has been touring all around the world and played with some of the greatest dj's, he will take the turntables and make you shake your booty with his unique blend of grooves from jazz, Afro, funk to Latin or reggae. 


Operation Khataza, a seven piece band led by the enigmatic FARRAH KHATAZA, a mystical character brought to life by Sanele Blaai, accompanied by Jaryd Alexander (Bass), Timothy Fortes(drums), Benji Anstey(guitar), Mariana Del Carmen(Vocals), Lois Flandorp (Vocals) and Fabian Selote (spoken word).


The band's unique sound is a captivating blend of sonics from across Africa. This music transcends boundaries, speaks to the African child on Love, waking from our sleep and slumber, an awareness of self! A conscious vibration by the African youth for Africa home and abroad. This band never ceases to deliver a profound and soul-stirring experience.
