Hi Tali. Tell us a little about the music you make.
The music I produce draws influence from R&B. I guess the end result is a darker interpretation of R&B merged with beats and a bit of grit. Brooding slow jams are what I’ve always been about. I like making music that is relatable and makes you feel a certain way when you listen to it, whether it helps you deal with a hard time you’re going through, or just having a rough day.
Who would you consider to be your greatest musical inspiration?
My biggest musical inspiration currently would be The Weeknd. He kind of pioneered alternative R&B in my opinion. The thing that really struck me about his earlier work on Trilogy was the dark undertones in the production that was a bit different from current and early R&B.
You just released your EP, The Motions Of Heartache. Walk us through the writing and recording process.
It was a journey. The writing process began about a year ago and it took me through a lot of really dark times in my life. It was a growing and learning experience. I put my soul into these songs and worked with the tracks until I was 100% happy with them. I recorded and produced the EP in my home studio myself. The EP was then mixed by Christian Scallan who is a God to me and has made the EP the finished product it now is.
