Electric TapestryCreated out of a desire to combine the atmospherics of post rock with the immediacy and sensibilities of pop, Electric Tapestry weave together a wide range of elements from a variety of genres to achieve a unique sound.
Three very different guitar players founded the band out of frustration with their previous musical groups, and decided to fully utilise their numerous effects pedals to create rhythmic noises, echoing harmonies and sonic washes to fill their soundscape. Riding atop this wave of sound can be heard familiar melodies from music originating from disparate styles across the decades of rock.
The shimmering Dunedin jangle sound is often utilised, in combination with occasional funk rhythms. Meanwhile, vocal lines that are reminiscent of South African pop can be heard from either of the two vocalists, only to be interrupted by layers of warm fuzz, crystalline blues lines à la David Gilmour, or a heavy metal lead guitar lead. The band is inspired by groups as diverse as The Beach Boys, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, King Crimson, Genesis, Van Halen, Radiohead; not to mention New Zealand bands such as Crowded House, The Chills and Straitjacket Fits.

Jon Toogood - Album Review: Last Of The Lonely Gods
06 Nov 2024 // by Daniel OBrien
Ten years ago I saw Jon Toogood perform a solo acoustic rendition of some classic Shihad songs to an absolutely packed Hunter Lounge in Wellington. He casually walked out onto the stage with his acoustic guitar, sat down, and proceeded to smash out what is one of the most explosive and commanding performances I have ever seen.

Salmonella Dub - Album Review: For All Things Alive
05 Nov 2024 // by Daniel OBrien
In the late 90's and early 2000's, Reggae and Dub formed the heart of the NZ music scene, with bands like Rhombus, Fat Freddy's Drop and Salmonella Dub (among many others) pumping out so much high quality original music that the Roots sound became synonymous with the idea of NZ music.But nothing lasts forever, and despite a few notable exceptions (Kora and TOI for example) the scene slowly homogenised into a cloying mix of chart-baiting BBQ reggae pop nonsense and vapid club hungry dance tracks.
