Music News - Sun Vault Set Debut Summer Track 'Bleed'
13 February 2024 - 0 Comments
Sun Vault Set, a Waiheke based collective merging driving electronic elements, soothing harmonies over big rhythmic foundations, will deliver their debut track Bleed March 8th just in time for the NZ Summer, and a run up to a debut March 30th Jazz Festival performance.
Featuring the vocals of Nikki Ngatai and a seriously smooth arrangement that reimagines Fleetwood Mac as if produced by Massive Attack, the track gathers familiar elements and injects them with fresh energy. Crafted by the skills of some of Waiheke’s best known musicians, Solomon Cole (Space Waltz, The Solomon Cole Band), veteran UK musician Lee Catlin (Orange Can) and a 7 piece musical collective (also featuring co-lead vocalist Alex Ludbrook). Bleed has an urban sound, crashing guitars, dance-y beats, and an insistent bassline that drives through increasingly epic strings and ethereal backing vocals.
Lyrically the track speaks to observing, acknowledging and supporting someone challenged with trauma or mental health issues. Educating yourself about what they are going through, and the burden you can remove from their plate.Vocalist and lyric writer Nikki Ngatai states, "It’s important we remove the stigma from taking care of our mental health. Keep them company when you can and remind them that you love them and you're on their side - everyone deserves a win".
James Belfield (Weekender) wrote: 'The overall effect is remarkably catchy, has the instant earworm quality that makes it sound as if you’ve known the song for years, and IS a tempting taste of what will surely be appointment viewing live shows and a mouth watering forthcoming album"
