Julia's guide Willie Komani describes the Xhosa 'click' language - South Africa Walks - BBC Four
www.bbc.co.uk More about this programme: www.bbc.co.uk Having tackled treks across the UK, Julia Bradbury embarks on a grand adventure in South Africa. As the world prepares to focus its attention on the World Cup host nation, Julia sets out on four very different walks that explore South Africa's claim to be 'a world in one country'. Julia is a regular visitor to the Rainbow Nation, but this is her chance to go far beyond the normal tourist destinations to a series of increasingly remote locations. However, these are all walks that any reasonably adventurous walker could embark on and they offer a fresh and personal perspective on a friendly and fascinating country that is so often misunderstood. The southernmost coastline of Africa is home to the sun-drenched Garden Route. With fabulous beaches and immense flora and fauna, this is an increasingly-popular holiday spot. But Julia's walk reveals secrets of the history of the Rainbow Nation. She even encounters research set to show that this abundant spot gave rise to the modern human race. With her Xhosa guide Willie bringing every feature to life, Julia finds her first walk an absolute delight. Here is proof of South Africa's warm and friendly welcome and of the constant surprises it has to offer.

Sundae feat. Nomhle - Xhosa Tribe (Antonello Coghe and Rancido's Native Dub)
www.traxsource.com Every once and a while there is great music that not only makes your feet and hips move but moves your soul because of the story behind such music. And with that said, NuLu Music is proud to release Sundae feat. Nomhle Xhosa Tribe (Nokawe EP The song was composed by Nocawe Mpindwa (DJ Sunda's grandma) as a spoken word and re-arranged by Sibabalwe Siba Mpindwa aka DJ Sundae and Nomhle Nofingxana. Xhosa Tribe speaks of the Xhosa people and the deepness of their Love at the village where they comes from. As it is evident all over the world, Love is what allows for great defeats of those who are wicked but more importantly Love is what allows people to rise from the depths of sadness or injustice, one of the best example of Love we have today is Nelson Mandela who comes from the same Xhosa Tribe. Nomhle's voice interpreted the song exactly the way the village tribe sang it back in the day and together with Sundae the chant is brought to life and redone by grandmother and grandson, properly naming it Xhosa Tribe. Remixed by Antonello Coghe & Rancido Deep Journey, Da Capo, Blaq Soul. Message from DJ Sundae: Thanx to Anane Vega and Antonello Coghe for signing this release on Nulu Music and to the amazing talented producers who joined us to out do themselves in this release with their elements of deeply rooted productions.
