Tāmaki Makarau singer-songwriter Nganeko joins bFM to discuss their latest sirenic single 'Simple Illusions' produced by Brandon Haru and Brent Parks.
Born from a trasitional period of life of "finding my feet", Simple Illusions explores vunerability and the creation of walls and boundaries that are, ultimately, just an illusion. As Nganeko puts it: "we keep ourselves in a rut sometimes and just gotta do something... go outside!"
Listen to Nganeko chat with Sofía about sonic inspirations, Casio watches, and hit chemical manufacturing film Dark Waters.
Listen back to Lucia's interview with Rich Peppiatt, director of the KNEECAPbiopic set for release in New Zealand on 24 October.
