Completion, the 2^nd album from Pieter T, perfectly rides the balance of new and old school, classic R&B hooks with the essential electronic sound of today’s music. With a host of talented music producers, Kog Studio’s analogue mixes and of course, Pieter T’s signature voice, Completion is a 14-song album, created to please even the purist of urban listeners to the ears of the upcoming generation.

“It’s been an incredible journey to say the least in getting to get the point I am at now musically. Twists and turns and plenty of questions raised along the way relating to myself and the career path I have chosen…"Am I good enough?" "Will I make it?" “How long before I get to where I want to be?"…

The latest release Right Here (Your Love) had over 100,000 Youtube views in it’s the first 4 days of it’s release and the single entered at #4 on the NZ single release chart.  

Pieter T has been touring endlessly over the last 2 years while writing this album, forming friendships and musical alliances worldwide. His musical talent and hard work has led him to gigs in Samoa, PNG, Australia, Rarotonga and recently Hawaii where he is returning later this year to write with local artists. One of his main focuses continues to be working with youth, especially with Youthline to help to combat youth suicide. His acoustic track (track 14) Tomorrow featuring Tyna Keelan, explores this important issue and we be part of a youth campaign later this year.

The album was recorded, analogue mixed and mastered by Chris Chetland at Kog Studio, known for his attention to bass, high class audio sheen and international production levels.  Combined this with Pieter T’s knack for catchy hooks, Completion marks another milestone in Pieter T’s career in NZ before heading to foreign shores with his unique sound.
