Last Jam this Sunday

This is the last session... the banger... the finale... What ever you want to call it, but its going to be bigger than the rest. This session is all about giving back the love that we got for the whole year. the line up is compromised by what we deem to be the finds of the year 2010 to have graced our stage.

On the decks Big Daddy Mdoo makes a welcome back to give us some beautiful laid back nu jazz/downtempo beats that most peop...le don't know him for. Trevor the Japanese is a DJ that is steadily making a name for himself in the alternative scene and will be gracing our decks. he comes under huge recommendation from the JunkOnMe crew.

Motlatsi is a leader and a true artist that is making a name for himself through his talent. Most people have seen him act yet don't know that he can sing and move a crowd. That is not a act at all. he will coming with a full band to the session to give us his take on soul music with underlying African rhythms.

Serengeti is a all three female band hailing from the icy shores of Sweden. They will be giving us their take on Reggae/dancehall. They will be providing a sound that we have missed at the session since the lose of our brother Stan.
