About Me

... what about me? This was the story on the Open Source website.

Welfare State of Mind is a weblog and a radio show on the oldest community radio station in South Africa, Bush Radio, which is located in Cape Town.

Bush Radio has been a model for many community radio projects all around the globe although its primary purpose is to serve the community.

Welfare State of Mind radio show started in October 2005 from the Bush Radio studios but later on became a pilot project for station as the production of the show moved overseas. Welfare State of Mind supports international urban music from Americas to New Zealand, from South Africa to Scandinavia and everything in between.

Contact me if you feel that you do music that would fall into the categories I support and I'll see if I put your songs on my show. Check the playlist at the WSOM blog .

Listen to the show every Saturday 2 pm South African time (GMT +2, EST +7 ) 89.5 fm in Cape Town area or .. worldwide from HERE .I am also quite keen photographer and do bits and pieces of graphic design (CD covers, flyers/posters, internet graphics etc) check out my flickr accounts from here and here .

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Who wouldn't I like to meet? When it comes to these MySpace friends it is highly unlikely that I will add you if you have thousands and thousands of friends and I cannot see any correlation between my show and your interest/location. I will add and I will request adds from lot of people. If you share the interests, want to contribute to the show or are my friend or otherwise friendly individual. All I am saying that I am not going to have thousands of "friends" just because. PEace. a
