    The Listening Threshold - S2 - Episode 4

    Hi there! My name is Gabi Motuba and I am a jazz singer and composer based in Johannesburg South Africa. In 2026 I'm beginning a new season of my podcast called The Listening Threshold. This is Season 2 of the Sonic Conversations Podcast but for the first time the podcast will not only live in sound, but also in image. Season 2 is about integrating everything I've learned so far about sound. My hope is to share my knowledge with like minded artists, it is to understand sound design more deeply and lastly to imagine how sound might help us build new worlds!

The fellow multi-talented artist has always understood her purpose as she fell in love with music at a very young age to the extent where she studied and obtained a degree in Jazz Studies at Tshwane University of Technology in Pretoria which is also a home to a variety of art, music and film alumni’s in South Africa. Her journey has led her into numerous spaces where she contributed her production skills towards various projects such as “⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sanctum Sanctorium⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠” with the legendary ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tumi Mogorosi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ alongside world-renowned Swiss pianist, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Malcolm Braff⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ in 2015 which was then released on the 10th of November 2016.  This then sparked Gabi into the making of her debut album “⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tefiti-Goddess of Creation⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠” which was released on the 1st of August 2018.

Whilst in the midst of that, Gabi finished off her sophomore album “⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Sabbath⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠” which was launched in various cities such as Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg and Pretoria during late 2024 which then led to the release of the sophomore album on the 27th of November 2024.

She has since started off her 2025 on a great start as she joined the “Escopia Distribution” roster with many plans in mind to best evolve her journey.
