 
His name might be linked to South African hip hop, but DJ Milkshake has graduated beyond the genre to become a master of any dancefloor. His ability to read and rock any crowd, anywhere is what has made him one of Africa’s top-rated entertainers. 

Milkshake has devoted the last ten years to honing his DJ skills and conquering dancefloors at the country’s top-rated clubs, parties and festivals.  Leading national radio station 5FM snapped him up in 2010 and every Friday night from 22h00 to 01h00 he quenches SA’s thirst for club-rocking sounds on ‘The Shakedown’. 

Recently, Milkshake’s was selected as the face and DJ of Castle Lite’s Summer 2013/14 TV Campaign and the Extra Cold Summer Tour which included a performance alongside US rap star Wale.  Rubbing shoulders with the superstars is nothing new - a few months earlier he opened for R ‘n B sensation Neyo. 

His interest in the mechanics of production led him into the studio in 2013 where he took on the role of producer.  The first single on his newly established record label, ‘Living On The Edge’ – a collaboration between award-winning beatboxer George Avakian and highly-regarded emcee AKA smashed the charts receiving airplay on all the biggest local stations all over Africa.

What is it about his sonic approach that has created so much fever around the name DJ Milkshake?

This Soweto-raised DJ has conquered an industry that’s notoriously competitive and cutthroat. His ascent is tied to an undying urge better himself and what he offers the crowd. An early adopter of technology, Milkshake took full advantage of his flair for all things digital and merged this with his innate understanding of what will detonate a dancefloor - this potent combination of skill and passion allowed him to cultivate a matchless, magnetic take on club music.  With his new approach, versatility and fresh style Milkshake has shaken up the established order and carved out a highly successful career for himself.

The last five years have been a whirlwind of parties, clubs, festivals and A-List events. Demand for his smouldering sets has placed him behind the controls at virtually every club and hip hop event in the country - and beyond South African borders in Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Zambia, Tanzania and Zanzibar.
Milkshake’s success is all his own.  He has spent considerable time and energy moulding the distinctive sonic identity that his many fans and followers appreciate.  His blossoming career was not instantaneous – but rather a lifetime in the making. Reach into his past and you’ll find a kid who would insist on playing only his cassettes in the car; a teenager whose vast music collection consumed most of his waking life. 

While attending WITS University Milkshake made the realisation that DJing was the true vehicle in which to deliver his music.  He co-founded the DJ Society and become of the hottest DJs on campus. This breakthrough also meant a difficult decision: his music career was beginning to conflict with his studies – and against the wishes of his parents, Milkshake decided to make music his primary focus. 

Seizing the momentum of his fast-rising profile, Milkshake began reaching out to radio stations – submitting mixes to all the hottest radio shows and securing guest DJ residencies on Metro FM and later 5FM. He also claimed many titles in toughly fought DJ Competitions - in 2007 he was a finalist in Go-TV’s National DJ Competition and Runner up on Hennessey’s Artistry’s National DJ Competition. In 2009 he won the top spot in News Café’s National DJ competition – a title which took him on a tour around the country and overseas to Miami with none other than DJ Fresh.  During that same trip Milkshake landed a gig in New York – proof that his hard work was starting to pay off.

With a steady-eyed focus and beats that rock any party, Milkshake has earned his place amongst the country’s top entertainers.  In his exciting new role as a record label owner and artists you can be certain that the best is yet to come from this future-facing talent.

TCM – Started Dee Jaying in the year 2000 as a young selector in house parties then ultimately turned pro. He soon started a professional career on the largest commercial radio station in Botswana, Yarona FM where he mixed on virtually every radio mix slot, week day and weekend nights, drive time afternoons and the weekend afternoon slots. His radio slots where pivotal to his entry into the club scene, and he became notorious for his surgical beat mixing technique.

German D.- Gained an interest in Djing at a young age as he played around with radio cassettes on a dual tape player radio. He later took his talent to high school events specialising in Ragga/Dancehall. He became professional in 2004 after his mentor TCM taught him to professionalise his art. This opened him up to other opportunities like  becoming a resident dj at a youth dance club called Teenzone. He then went on to compete in a local Sprite Dj competion in 2006 where he attained 2nd place. In 2007 he started playing in local night clubs in Gabs & secured a radio mix slot on Yarona Fm which he still currently holds.
                                                                                                                                                                
In 2004 TCM meet German D in a neighbourhood they both grew up in, an area called Block 5 in Gaborone, Botswana. TCM took German D as his Dee Jaying & Production protégé and soon the student was better than the master.

TCM and German D embarked on a journey through house music, perfecting their production skills and Dee Jaying at parties and clubs in the small city of Gaborone. German D through his massive talent found himself mixing on Yarona FM slots and it is here where he introduced house maniacs and music lovers throughout the country to sounds of 100% pure electro sets.

Their passion and focus saw the duo developing into an act that would perform at shows along the likes of Pharell Williams, DJ Spen, Spritchaser, Rocco, Ralf Gum, Ndinga Gaba, Dave Storm, The Layabouts, Reel People, Charles Webster, Harrison Crump, Fresh, Oskido, Black Coffee, Vinny, Cleo, Zakes Bantwini, Liquideep, Kent & Mahoota to mention a few.

PRODUCTION
Groove CarteLL duo where fortunate enough to release tracks from 2006 with CCP/EMI (SA), Big Dawg Records, Ceremony Records, etc. on projects for some of the biggest names in the Region and Internationally.

From initially being known for remixing songs, Groove CarteLL through this produced their first hit, Nbongeni Ngema's " Safa sa phele..." The DJ Trax Remix.

ALBUMS	
Their sophomore album "Explosive House Vol 1" was a long awaited collaboration (in 2010) between them and Mafikeng's legendary radio personality and disk jockey Douglas Dmos Mosadi who they meet at Lekoko. The EMI/CCP offering was a spectacular 4 disc album, the 4th disc being a DVD, and had their lead single "Oyo Ezayabino - This is for you" featuring Polino.

2012 was a colossal year for the duo as they released their second and highly anticipated album "ILLICIT HOUSE Vol. 1". This album is rather special as the duo succeeded in engaging industry heavy weights (Boddhi Satva, Harrison Crump, Ndinga Gaba and Dave Storm) who are internationally renowned to contribute to their work.

Lunar Disco has been gently percolating on the stove for quite some time. According to the duo behind the moniker– and that’s husband and wife Australian singer/ songwriter Kate Elsworth and French DJ/producer Nicolas Blistène – This exciting new disco proposition is “a cool new version of synth wave.” And in fact, that’s a pretty apt description of an electronic act who have not only plenty of new music but also equal amounts of musical ambition. Having seen other live acts take their wares to town, Lunar Disco have decided that they would prefer to skip town and go global instead: and with a look and a sound that’s guaranteed to captivate audiences in captivity or finally free of lockdown woes, it’s clearly time for this Disco to get underway.
But let’s start at the beginning, which is how these two lovebirds came together. “We met in Ibiza and quickly became partners in sound, life and crime!…”
This gorgeous franco-australian couple lives a dream life between Byron Bay (Aus) and Europe, performing at the best festivals around the globe (Caprices, Tulum, Moga, Sonar Off, Fashion Week, Plages électroniques, etc..) to playing at Guy Laliberté’s private villa gatherings and other exclusive VIP events like the famous AUM parties in Paris as their resident DJs, as well as releasing some successful tracks on electronic labels such as Abracadabra, Katermukke Rumors, Pipe and Pochet, etc., all supported by some of the main artists in the industry such as Luciano, Pete Tong, Dubfire, Carl Craig, Guy Gerber, Blond:ish, Audiofly, etc., while they find the time for surfing, writing songs and raising their 2 year old daughter Lily- Rose.
After this long lockdown, LUNAR DISCO come back with a refreshed version of both their musical and stage performances, presenting their first HYBRID LIVE SHOW (vocal) through which they will explore a deep and cosmic sound brushed with some pop & disco flavor mixing their own tracks with some of their moment favorites. SUCK MY DISCO is born, a non-seriously taken concept which neatly sums up the Playboy-style 70’s and 80’s ethos and is also the name of their new music label. A platform that pretends not to pretend. Soon to be released on, more of LUNAR DISCO’s own originals including remixes of friends each time.

And there you have it: the hot pink-hued Lunar Disco has now entered the building…"
