Immersed in the sun – drenched scenes of the Greater Kruger region, Nora En Pure transports us to her homeland, South Africa, to celebrate the 500th episode of her globally adored Purified Radio show.
Presenting an extended set spanning day to night, she pairs the spectacular landscapes and wildlife that continue to inspire her sound across the two-and-a-half-hour broadcast. Carefully curated for the occasion, she weaves together some of the most beloved tracks from the Purified catalogue with a selection of fresh, unreleased material that will soon see the light of day on the imprint.
Bringing viewers into her most cherished setting – the wilderness – the performance unfolds among the striking Lillie Hills of The Selati Game Reserve, surrounded by natural beauty and the tranquil, yet wild energy that encapsulates her sonic identity.
Created in collaboration with The Selati Game Reserve and the Selati Wilderness Foundation, the stream not only marks a defining moment for Purified Radio, but also delivers a powerful message of conservation and environmental awareness.
The Selati Wilderness Foundation was created to promote wildlife conservation by supporting and educating local communities and raising awareness among the wider public. It also aims to demonstrate how existing farmland can be transformed into sustainable wildlife reserves through innovative conservation projects, including the reintroduction and management of endangered species. In addition, Selati seeks to become a leading research destination for impactful conservation studies.
As part of the initiative, fans and viewers are invited to support these vital efforts. Contributions to the fundraiser will go directly toward the foundation’s research and conservation projects, helping to protect extraordinary ecosystems like those showcased in the stream. The campaign aims to reach a fundraising goal of 30’000 USD, with 100% profits supporting the foundation’s work.
Episode 500 stands as a tribute to the global community that has grown around Purified Radio – a movement rooted in music, nature and a shared commitment to preserving the planet’s most beautiful places. Since its inception, the platform has carved out a unique space at the intersection of electronic music and environmental consciousness, resonating with audiences worldwide. As it reaches this milestone, the project continues to evolve, reinforcing its purpose as both a sonic journey and a call to protect the landscapes & ecosystems that inspire it.
