Good on Nescafe Basement for not calling its pursuit of discovering young singing talent as ‘talent hunt’.

The niche TV show, which has caught the fancy of many hardcore music lovers in recent times, is on a ‘mission’ to find young people with powerful vocal chops.

Yes, that’s the word they’re using: mission. To rope in fresh voices for Season 4, the Basement’s producers have been visiting educational institutions all across the country and it seems that they’ve found some decent singers. Rock on, Basement! It’s mission possible … all the way.
