"Perfection is like the benchmark now... And everything's polished and clean and auto-tuned and... Fuck that. That ain't real, you know? And just like in life, you know, you don't get second chances. If you say that thing, it comes out your mouth. That's out."
Get into your elemental feels with Kāpati artist Casual Healing as he joins Sofía Kent Padilla to discuss the final instalment of his four-part musical release: from WAI (water), AHI (fire), HAU (wind), and now completing the cycle, ONE (earth).
Casual Healing discusses banana bread, young parenthood, the divine feminine of WAI, and the messy, organic, lifegiving force of Papatūānuku in his latest EP ONE.
"Stand firm in your beliefs in who you are. Do what makes you happy and what makes your soul shine. Stay off your phone eat that good kai. Get some sleep. Get that wind in your face everyday and get your toes in the grass. Keep healing.
"Every style, every genre has a different outlook" according to audio engineer Nick Maddren. On the cusp of the Auckland Arts Festival closing show, Maddren discusses the BIG HORNS brass project that reimagines funk, soul, disco & hip hop.
With inspiration striking in the unlikely setting of working a Robbie Williams gig, Maddren talks to Sofía about the creation of the ensemble and producing partnership with Dixon Nacey.
With a career spanning over 30 years, Maddren's role can loosely be described as the guardian of a good time. With all the technicalities of audio engineering, at the heart of his work is crowd observation and curating atmosphere. "That's how we built the show and the segues... think about how can it just keep flowing, making it interesting and showcase the players most of all. Because if they're having an amazing time, that only transcends into the audience itself and then we all have a good time."
Advice and anecdotes of shaping a musical career are shared: from how to get started to 'back in the day' record recs from the late Mu of Fat Freddy's Drop.
New Zealand artist, Victoria Kelly, joins Sofía Kent on 95bFM to discuss their composition, commissioned by the NZSO, created in response to the 13th century Christian script, Stabat Mater.
Stabat Mater follows Mary's suffering after the cruxifixion of her son, Jesus. Rossini's composition of the Stabat Mater is to be performed by the NZSO and Voices New Zealand, followed by Kelly's composition of a contemporary interpretation.
Kelly discusses their adolescent relationship with religion and how it evolved with openness to a spectrum of worldviews. She recognises important themes of human hypocrisy and fluid femininity in her response; rewriting Mary's fate to an alternate version where she saves her child.
Standing on political, introspective, and extrospective messages through composition is a task Kelly delves into with sage advice for creators maintaining authenticity in today's churn of 'content'.
Ōtautahi musician Lukas Mayo, known as pickle darling, joins Sofia on bFM for a chat about their new gameboy-esque project: pickle darling: the game .
In a pixelated green world materialised by artist Christiane Shortal, the game is set in the Aotearoa music universe where you play as pickle darling on their quest to retrieve their lost album... before their label drops them.
It's witty, nostalgic, and refreshingly fun. Designed for game-illiterates and enthusiasts alike, try pickle darling: the game yourself and experience the trials and tribulations of the creative journey behind an indie album release.
