On Morning Glory, Elle had the pleasure of speaking with Buck Raines about his album 'Blunt Objects.' A collection of sounds that hop through a range of genres. We spoke about his writing process, collaborators and what ties this project all together.
"I like to hone in on being excited. If something excites you in the moment, that's a situation you have to pursue"
Producer, instrumentalist, and singer Pachyman joins Sofia on Morning Glory in anticipation of his return to New Zealand, with shows from Auckland to Lyttleton.
Pachy spoke about how he came to find his recognisable reggae dub sound from his roots of playing in reggae and post rock bands in Puerto Rico and later influenced by his move to LA.
Lately, it's been about expression: in performance, chord pickings, and laying down a drum-centric foundation to create a "mantra-esque" atmosphere to enjoy existence in that moment.
Pachy drops names of influence such as King Tubby, Victor Axelrod, his time playing with The Expanders, using an old board from Lee "Scratch" Perry, and memories with his wife in Puerto Rican mountains that inspired the synth heavy track: "Toyota Nuevo".
Catch Pachyman at the Wine Cellar, 27th Feb in Auckland!
Sof spoke with De Stevens of School Fair about their new record 'bird the kid', spoken word/poetry in music, and experimenting with genre. Whakarongo mai!
