Categories: Audio, Pop, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“In music, a spark is important, which will light the fire in your heart stronger than the previous one and -dani teveluwe - coped with this task at the highest level! Chic vocals, a melodic line of Neo-Soul and Funk and a light, not overshadowing the entire musical canvas of the rhythm. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“В музыке важна искра, которая зажжёт в вашем сердце огонь сильнее прежнего и -Dani Teveluwe- справилась с этой задачей на высочайшем уровне! Шикарный вокал, мелодичная линия Neo-Soul и Funk и лёгкий, не затмевающий собой всё музыкальное полотно ритм.”

Born from the melting pot of unpursued dreams and constant procrastination, Waiting Wasting Time sings to the intent of jumping out of your comfort zone, and just going for it.

Dani Teveluwe tells us, “Waiting Wasting Time first came to me when I was walking my gorgeous Golden Huey around Miami. The chorus melody soothed my soul and I loved it from the get-go.”

“It’s funny because building the courage to make a change can sometimes take years, but in reality, the moment we decide to change is quite fleeting.”

“Around that time, I had been thinking a lot about the motivation behind change. That moment when change is no longer a choice and when it becomes a necessity. “

“What is that thing that gets us to finally book that overseas trip we’ve always wanted to go on? What makes us overcome the fear of rejection to ask someone out, or perhaps ending a relationship that isn’t right? How do you describe the desire to leave a perfectly stable job to pursue your passion?”

“The more I dwelled on it, the more I realised that I had created my own discontentment in the past by not going for it. By taking the safe option instead of the scarier path, living in my head not my heart.”

“I decided I was done with waiting and wasting time.”

And she was done. Dani started gigging solo at age 30 and released songs that spoke about how she had changed over the past few years. She told the man she was dating that she loved him. She took the scary path, but the true path more often than not, becoming braver and braver in the process.

Just prior to writing Waiting Wasting Time covid had broken out, and Dani’s baby sister, Chelsea had returned from Canada.

Chelsea had been wanting to have a crack at renovating a van, turning a humble Hiace into a trendy and tiny home.

Chels had never used a power tool before and she didn’t really know much about vans, but she didn’t let it stop her. Embracing the challenge she bought a van, drove it to her Dad’s garage and began the researching how to do everything, learning on the fly.

With the help of our Dad, YouTube, some very friendly neighbours, Chelsea finished the build and stunned everyone with her craftsmanship.

Dani told us, “When it came to planning the music video for Waiting Wasting Time, using Chels’ story was a no brainer. Her story and what she did is so inspirational, and it was nice to have the opportunity to document what she did and share it with the world.”

Krispy & The Pooch – Don’t Play Yourself

“Finding the depths of his subconscious in search of an answer, whether we are alone in the universe, we must not forget that a person, first of all, needs music. After all, it is she who will accompany him on the way to knowing herself. Nu Jazz in the framing of the warm vocals of the duet -krispy & the pooch - exactly what should be near you on an ongoing basis. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“Покоряя глубины своего подсознания в поисках ответа, одиноки ли мы во вселенной, нужно не забывать, что человеку, прежде всего — нужна музыка. Ведь именно она будет сопровождать его на пути к познанию себя. Nu Jazz в обрамление тёплого вокала дуэта -Krispy & The Pooch- именно то, что должно быть рядом с вами на постоянной основе.”

-Nagamag.com

Auckland duo Krispy & The Pooch are thrilled to share their silky-smooth, RnB-infused single ‘Don’t Play Yourself’ ahead of the release of their upcoming new EP THE RECKLESS ECLECTIC: PART ONE out Friday 10 June.

Having spent the last few years crafting music that is uniquely their own, Krispy & The Pooch can boast a distinctly modern sound built around lyricist Krispy’s soulful vocals, and The Pooch’s uncanny ear for sweet electro-synth beats.

A smooth, soothing track with an upbeat neo-soul groove, ‘Don’t Play Yourself’ is an irresistible blend that dishes up a flavoursome, infectiously dreamy jam, invoking a breezy summer day vibe.

The eclectic duo describe it as “a song about giving yourself (and others) permission to do what you love and chase your dreams, in whatever form they come.” The message is clear in the uplifting and optimistic ode, as Krispy’s suave vocals croon ‘You know it’s all I ever wanted, To live a life I’d love to lead, Chasing stars amongst the comets, Moulding my destiny.”

The Waiheke Island based duo of Kriston Batistic (aka Krispy) and Simon Townsend (aka The Pooch), originally conceived ‘Don’t Play Yourself’ when they were living and making music in Berlin at the end of 2019.

In the 3 years since, the tune has gone through many different iterations before finally settling as a mellow, RnB-infused song which takes the best of live instrumentation, and mixes in a sprinkle of electronic flavour in classic Krispy & The Pooch style.

Featuring Berlin musicians Nir Sabag (percussion) and Matt Paul (Synths/keys) and a horn section made up of Waiheke Natives - Julion Wright (Saxophone) and Jono Benzur (Trumpet), ‘Don’t Play Yourself’ is truly a team effort made up of passionate musicians from both sides of the world.

The Tortoise The Hare and The Millionaire – At the Crossroads

Categories: Audio, Rock, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“The variety of songs -the tortoise the hare and the millionaire - embodies the entire depth of their talent, since each composition is unique and fully reveals the Blues genre in which this composition is performed. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)

“Разнообразие песен -The Tortoise The Hare and The Millionaire- воплощает всю глубину их таланта, так как каждая композиция уникальна и полностью раскрывает жанр Blues, в которой исполнена эта композиция.”

-Nagamag.com

“People walking by all telling me they know why / Got me spinning around feeling like some other guy / I know which way to go at the crossroads”

“Who’s to say what’s right or wrong about the choices we make in life,” said The Tortoise The Hare and The Millionaire’s Matt Carr. “When we come to a crossroads, we choose the path that’s good for us and reflects who we are at that time. This song is about knowing we're making the right choices in the moment, and realizing we don’t have to agree with someone else’s path, because that’s what works for them.”

A sweeping roots rock number with blues inflections, “At The Crossroads” hails from The Tortoise The Hare and The Millionaire’s new album, Yard Sale (out 06/03).

“Yard Sale is an anthology of stories and sounds,” said Carr. “With inspirations as varied as the members who make up the band, blues, rock, and funk are all represented. Each song tells a story - even the instrumentals - of either something that’s happened in our lives or things that we feel are relevant to all. Yard Sale also pays homage to some of our favorite artists, with nods to the likes of Dicky Betts and the JBs among others.”

Whereas “At The Crossroads” works to make sense of a difficult world, Yard Sale also finds the band at peace on songs like opener, “I Know,” with Carr remarking:

“From the first time that it got through / I did what I could to stand next to you.”

“The seeds of ‘I Know’ were planted while I was playing the head riff across from my wife in the summer of 2020,” said Carr. “She looked up, bobbing her head, and said ‘I like that!’ This is a love song about the one who you would do anything for.”

Recorded and mixed by Dylan Ward at Fredericton’s Shiftwork Studio,Yard Sale was produced by friend and fellow Frederictonian Greg Webber (Kill Chicago).

“We were fortunate to have Greg on board to help bring these ideas to life and push us out of our comfort zone,” Carr said. “The resulting tracks are some of our favorites. It’s Saturday morning, the sun is shining so turn up the tunes and get to a yard sale!”
