Ngoma

What a pleasant surprise! At first I thought "this sounds kinda strange", then I thought "this will make a good background channel" and finally I just plain like this channel. The vocals are wonderful (even when not sung in English) with nice harmonies and the rhythms are catchy without being overbearing. In addition to being informative, the DJs are also warm and inviting. Overall a well done channel that I intend to listen to more.
