The bass wasn’t thumping—it was humming through the floorboards as Thokozile 'DJ Zile' Mokgang  said her last goodbyes at the Mahube Tumelo hall in Rocklands yesterday. 

Zile broke all cultural and music barriers, all speakers at the funeral attested. As heaven lights strobe on her beautiful sets, the Bloemfontein music scene will never be the same. 

"One thing we will never forget about Thoko is her smile - it was the best" her friends added. 

Grief hung thick between the speakers—a crowd more accustomed to losing themselves in rhythm than confronting loss when a tribute was held after the funeral with all welded blends of the late DJ Zile's sets later that day. 

Rest in Power DJ Zile.
