Music News - Pipsy announce new single 'All You Ever Wanted'

Pipsy announce new single 'All You Ever Wanted'

20 July 2022 - 0 Comments

Pipsy is the musical project of Paul Pouwels McMillan (they/them), a songwriter and producer based in Te Whanganui-a-Tara.

Pipsy crafts alternative pop with poise and precision. Their tracks are full with warm melodies and tender vocal harmonies. Listeners will be reminded of the devotional jangle made by British post-punks in the 80s, as well as the stirring synth pop of the early 2000’s.

Today Pipsy shares their new single All You Ever Wanted. It’s dizzyingly fun indie pop that’s indicative of what can be expected from their upcoming debut album.

All You Ever Wanted passes by like a cosy dream, one that listeners will want to have on repeat.

"I stumbled upon the idea for All You Ever Wanted while I was goofing around one day" says Pouwels McMillan. The track was written and recorded at Pouwels McMillan's home studio situated at the top of the windy hills of Broadmeadows in Te Whanganui-a-Tara (Wellington). "It's pretty high up so it looks out over these really beautiful towering Totara trees, and past that, you can see for miles out into the mountains - it’s a super peaceful-feeling being up there.

"I was thinking about how much happier I’d been since I moved back to New Zealand in 2020 - being back home among friends and family, even though it was during quite an intense and scary time. All You Ever Wanted is a song about really appreciating what you have, and perhaps trying to let go of longing for all these things that you don't even really want or need."

"I was noodling away on the guitar and I just started playing the entire song pretty much start to finish. Songs sometimes appear really quick like that - in 5 minutes you have a track, it’s always baffling, but always welcome!"

Pouwels McMillan reflects "I'm immensely proud of this song - it really feels like a true expression of where I'm at as an artist right now, and I know that that sounds corny, but sometimes it's nice to be corny! I think that the most important thing to do as an artist is to make the art and music that you want to see/hear in the world, and this is exactly that for me."
