Is this possibly becoming South Africa’s first true internet meme I wonder.

By now you would have heard the story – if not, where have you been?! If you really are still in the dark, you may want to check out the video clip of the news broadcast that brought this all about.

In a nutshell: AWB Spokesperson André Visagie losses his rag during the recording of the eNews Channel programme Africa 360°. Upset that the second panellist Political Analyst Lebohang Pheko keeps interrupting him, he rips off his mike, and storms off the set. On his way out, he threatens people, the programme host Chris Maroleng steps in to defend the honour (and physical person probably) of his guest, and utters (repeatedly) the now globally famous phrase “Don’t touch me on my studio”.

We’ve already posted a couple of the resulting “remixes” in our original post here, including a video remix (‘Mo’s Circle Mix’) and the audio mix featuring MC Hammer. But there are a lot more out there. Sadly, many of them are really, really bad. Poor efforts at humour, poorly executed audio mixes, and some really pathetic video efforts too.

But fear not, dear BlaBlanians – we’ve done the work for you, and give you a collection of the best ‘Touch Me On My Studio’ mixes we could find.

First off a remix with a bit of a dub-step groove feel to it…

Then two excellent dance tracks with sampled vocals from the clip. They’ve been put together by Cape-based twin brothers Niel and Simon de la Rouviere:

Don’t touch me by Simon Segfault

And finally, a bit of a Visagie/Malema mashup set to a fairly funky backing track, put together by Yanga and Nota, and uploaded by Ventilation Kid:

Laugh, the beloved country. Laugh!
