Live recording of 90th Birthday song for Nelson Mandela in the Jacaranda 94.2 music radio station studios in Midrand, South Africa. What made the shoot fascinating is the fact that 4 of South Africas top artists agreed at 24 hours notice to come to the studio and record a song they had never rehearsed or even heard before. The song was hastily written by the Jacaranda 94.2 breakfast production team, including Dean Konidaris, who is featured on this footage recording the song. It happened in a single evening session for Kurt Darren, Tasha Baxter and Craig Hinds. Danny K laid down his voice tracks the next morning at 5:30am! Tasha recorded no less than 6 different voice tracks to add depth to the song. Watershed lead singer Craig Hinds faced the biggest challenge, as the song stretched his vocal capacity both at the top and the bottom of his range. But we got through it and the final mix of the song was played live on Just Plain Breakfast with Darren Scott less than two hours after Danny K finished his part of the recording. The video was shot and edited with the same haste (approx 2 hours for edit, final mix, conversion and upload). It was a one-woman shoot from start to finish and without time-code, the deadline didnt allow proper synchronization of the soundtrack with the visuals. Despite this it was a fabulous collaboration which made it in time for the morning of Nelson Mandelas 90th Birthday on 18 July 2008. The video was uploaded to the now defunct Buzz entertainment ...

Jaime Lissavetzky (Secretary of state for sport in Spain) Para mi es un honor participar en esta felicitación a Nelson Mandela por su 90 cumpleaños. En nombre mío y en nombre del deporte español. Porque pienso que Nelson Mandela simboliza los valores del deporte. Es una persona que ha trabajado y ha luchado de manera infatigable con autoexigencia y que ha sabido superar las dificultades con un objetivo, hacer una sociedad más justa, hacer una sociedad más igual y por ello mi felicitación y mi deseo que los ciudadanos del mundo se unan a esta campaña de felicitación de esta maginfica persona, de esta gran persona que es ya un referente mundial y que el y su obra perdurarán con seguridad en el tiempo. For me it´s a great honour to participate in this birthday wishes campaign for Nelson Mandela´s 90th birthday. Personally and in representation of Spanish sport, because I think that Nelson symbolises the values of sport. He is a person that has worked and fought without rest and with self commitment and has known how to overcome difficulties with one objective in mind, to make our society more fair and equal. For this reason I wish him and hope that all citizens of the world join together to send their message to this wonderful person who is a worldwide reference and whose work will surely remain alive for ever.
