BioMarumo, a musical ensemble formed by visually impaired talents at the Athlone School for the Blind in Cape Town, released two influential albums. "Modiehi" in 1982, a twelve-track masterpiece, showcased their versatility with Mbaqanga, disco-funk, gospel, and spacey-synth slow jams. In 1988, "Tshankaneng," a 10-track Afropop gem, further underlined their musical prowess. Marumo's unique sound, blending various genres, left an indelible mark on South Africa's music scene. The visually impaired members—John Mothopeng, Munich Sibiya, Simon Falatsi, and Marks Mbuthuma—demonstrated the power of music to transcend boundaries and captivate with soulful and eclectic compositions.
