In an interview with Kgolagano Pukka Entaile, the manager and Aaron Riise Motlhabani, one of the group members, blew their own horns, continuously emphasising that they are headed for greater heights.Pukka says that the name Team Distant is derived from the coming together of the group members who met through mutual friends all in favour of joining forces and becoming amongst the best of house music producers locally. "We each produce a specific genre under house music so we wanted to bring that together and fuse it into one," Pukka explained. He went on further to explain that the kind of music that they are bringing to people is different as they draw a lot of inspiration from international artists and add their own elements hence making what they do different from what is already available in the market.
"During performances we use different instruments such as the shakers, cow bells and drums and that's what identifies us as a group, it brings out each of our uniqueness," Pukka said. Pukka further said that they use various indigenous languages in their music. "Each member contributes to the making of songs, from the beats to the vocals. We respect team work both on stage and in the studio," he added.
