Summerella - 11Something

idea, just working with ft grt vox Conscious Entity of Sound, rough mix here need to work on balance. Struggling with getting vocals to be out there without being too strident, also timing, didn't listen to original (try not to) so had to dick around with moving stuff in and around the timing of the track. Obviously main El piano and bass riff comes from v well known track (which I sadly can't mention for fear of reprisal from SC), but its pretty obvious. Had a lot of fun there, stuck the record on my player, recorded some audio in, chopped it up, made some sampler instruments, had a play. Love the way that that totally iconic electric piano sound comes thru, in spite of my manglings, a few scratches on the original vinyl, incorporated, love a scratch. A classic track, a classic beautifully engineered piece, thanks Mr O. Hopefully over the next week or so will find time to put a better version of this up here. Finally big thanks to Conscious Entity of Sound, only just discovered all your acapellas on Looperman.. What a superb gift, thank you so much. Been inspiring, a blast.
Photo, late night in Copenhagen, near where we were staying, a cosy lil bar and next door a shop selling all kinds of things, photographed some of the window display. Loved Copenhagen warm in spite of the cold. 31/3/17
DIARYNOTES Loved the Airesque pitch shift fx notes I made. Basically recorded a load of feedback loop thru my desk, put Logic into record and unless you have the record channel muted it all feeds back. Normaly a moment to hit the mute button but having checked that the desk was almost not going to blow up I recorded a bit, and treated the resulting audio to some speed up/slow down, result lush :-)

Crazy Story Remix ft BZA(Prod. Will Formato)

I am dedicating my newest body of work to my Samoan heritage and my Polynesian upbringing. When writing my latest music, I really resonated with the idea of creating a sound that represents my background. I am the product of such a diverse concoction of elements, but I can’t deny the influence that my Polynesian roots have had on the young woman and artist that I have become. 

I haven’t descended from worldly riches but I deem myself extremely wealthy – I have an endless supply of shoulders I can lean on when I’m drained of energy, a huge community supporting my passion for music and performance, countless mentors and teachers guiding me through my journey, and so many loved ones and strangers that give what they can to help me succeed. I have seen my father take food off his own plate to feed others, I have seen my mother dedicate her life and health to raising 6 healthy children, I’ve seen my destitute grandparents forefront fundraisers to send money to our family in the Islands, I have met extended family for the first time that are living in third world conditions that have greeted me with a feast I couldn’t finish, and I have had mentors hand me the path to my dreams, despite the enormous financial cost and having young mouths to feed at home. I have seen my ‘aiga’ and loved ones give when they have nothing, and I couldn’t be more motivated to give back what I can and pay homage where it’s due.

Creating this EP has sparked an even deeper desire to learn the history of my ancestors and I hope to take my music back home to the Islands that inspired its creation. But until then, I hope to reach out to my brothers and sisters residing in their ‘fales’ on their family land through my music, and thank them for the history they carry in their blood, blood that I am honoured to share with them.

Caitlyn - The Unknown

Kenyan born Elsy Wameyo has emerged as a force to be reckoned with in recent years, a chameleonic artist pouring life’s lessons and experiences into dynamic pieces of art. 2022 saw the release of her long-awaited debut EP, Nilotic, a self-produced six-track fusion of soul-infused hip-hop and alt-R&B praised by The Guardian, Acclaim, NME, Fashion Journal, & Complex for its incisive lyrics and impressive production. The EP was a moment of arrival that took home six awards at the South Australia Music Awards. Elsy cut her teeth as a spirited performer alongside the likes of Sampa The Great and Aminé; as well as earning early cosigns from artists such as Tierra Whack and Tyler the Creator. The young artist embarked on international tours throughout Europe; following her appearances at a sold out run of Australian arenas. 2024 has brought her to a new creative touchstone, a place of reclamation and self-empowerment - Elsy Wameyo’s debut studio album, Saint Sinner. Stories of aggressive fearlessness and profound boldness are heard on her latest singles 'Umva' & 'Conquer' as Elsy battles with inner demons, temptations and worldly voices to find a way back to her guiding spirit. As she stands at the precipice of her most important creative chapter yet, Elsy Wameyo is at peace knowing that with this album is the delivery of Elsy in her truest form. With this sense of peace comes added fulfilment – for both the current Elsy, and the little Elsy, who continuously guides within.
