Kasuku and Co-Hosts Launch State-of-the-Art Olaxess Studio
On Saturday, August 3, Kasuku and his co-hosts from the Talk and Talk Show unveiled a new studio for their show.
The studio, named The Olaxess Studio in honour of their late friend Isma Olaxess, was acquired for approximately $20,000, or around Shs73.8 million. This endeavor was made possible by the funding of Don Jan.
Situated along Bulabira Road in Najjera, the studio was designed and assembled by the legendary Steve Jean of Fenon Records, with connections facilitated by one Sharon.
Kasuku recounted that the idea of starting a studio was proposed to Don Jan back in November 2024. Jan agreed but was initially non-committal about when he would provide the funds for the necessary equipment and venue acquisition.
The turning point came when Don Jan learned that Kasuku and his team had been laid off from Dembe FM. Recognizing the need for a new base, Jan informed Kasuku that he was ready to finance the studio.
Since their departure from Dembe FM, the Talk and Talk Show, co-hosted by Kasuku, Eddie Ssendi, Jenkins Mukasa, and Batt Badru, has been held at various locations.
Their first stop was YayaXtra Residence, managed by their friend Stanley Ndawula. Following this, they moved to Buyu Studios, owned by John Segawa. The journey continued as Sheilah Gashumba, on behalf of Kasuku, persuaded Ali Khan, the owner of Nzou Media Studios, to allow them to record there.
