The Sound Sniffer

Sniffing out the best new music

In Conversation: Finnegan Tui Interview

Finnegan Tui is a name rapidly breaking through the noise in London. He is a New Zealand born singer/songwriter/producer with the world at his feet in musical terms. Having recently released his debut single ‘ Once I’m Gone ’ to the world, the reception to the track has been incredibly positive. Only embarking on his journey now after many years fine tuning his sound, Tui is an artist destined for big things and the opening release reflects this promise.    I caught up with Finnegan for a chat a couple of weeks back and was blown away by his story and journey in music. It gives me a big sense of pride to share this conversation with you all now. 

Thanks for chatting Finnegan – Let’s start right at the beginning shall we? Where did your immersion into music come from? I read from your bio that you lived on a bus of some sort back in NZ? Tell us about that.

Ay yeah, my dad made a living by taking a stage from festival to festival. It was a bus and on the roof and behind the bus there was a stage. It was called The Curbside Cabaret . The idea was that anyone could come along and put their name down to play. There was always a wide range of people of various levels of skill signed up each time and the genres were broad. In one evening we could have a drunk triangelist, a jazz trio followed by a reggae group play on the bus. It would get quite incredible as sometimes the main acts at the festivals would pop by and play when the main festival programme had shut. It was an all night thing and this was my childhood, living on the bus.

Being in and around my father’s Curbside Cabaret, I was surrounded by music which over time grew to become a method of communication on the same par as language was for me growing up. My own drive to become an artist came from witnessing a violin and guitar duo play one evening on stage at the Cabaret. I became totally captivated by the violin player; I just couldn’t believe it and was so amazed by the sound. I was five years old and right there and then announced to my father that I wanted to play violin as my profession. He turned to me, ‘if you still want to play the violin when you are six years old, we’ll get you one’. I sure did, and they got me one.

Playing the violin at the festivals became the next stage of my musical development. I’d find gaps in the line up and as a six year old and walk up and play a few notes to a couple of hundred people. I wouldn’t even know how to hold the violin, let alone play a tune, but it was accepted and the audience took to me and encouraged me to continue. Some even gave me money. I think that was the pinnacle of my career actually.

We eventually parked the bus outside a friend’s house and we had a more normal existence where I attended school along with my sister. I picked up the guitar in school and went to lessons with an eccentric German teacher called Deiter Burmeister . He took me under his wing as quite a serious demo of a student. This was my first introduction to practice, theory and harmony. I was completely fascinated by music as a form of art, mathematics and architecture. I started with Deiter when I was eleven and completed grade eight when I was twelve. It was such a fast-track situation where I think Deiter wanted to see how quickly he could get someone through the grades. The early grade were for electric guitar with grade six, seven and eight focused on Jazz.

As the years went on, I experimented a lot with different sounds and styles to get to where my sound has travelled to now. Folk has always been the genre I liked to listen to the most and through utilizing electronic sounds in my own music making too, I’m able to create the sound you can hear on ‘Once I’m Gone’.

After this interesting music soaked upbringing, your childhood then contained an across the globe move from New Zealand to Devon – how did a young Finnegan Tui react to a change like this?

It was mental.. crazy, I had been on that bus, running around for seven or eight years and then we lived in a six house cul de sac – there was a boy my age in one of the other houses. It was called Whareroa Road. We eventually formed a little gang on the road and would go to the sand dunes everyday, run wild innocently. Suddenly in my early teens I was dropped into a new environment in the UK. The culture was totally different. It went from running around in the dunes of New Zealand to a ‘let’s go drinking, let’s play videogames..’ culture when I arrived in my new home in Devon. Not saying anything bad about the UK at all, but naturally it was a bit of a culture shock.

We all yearn to feel alive and I had that feeling of leaping off a sand dune, climbing a big tree – these were my pastimes. By moving to England it was more of a concrete jungle with less scope for living the life I used to in NZ. To get to know my new boundaries and feel alive again in the UK and feel my childhood excitement, I joined up with a group of free runners. They saw the city as a jungle, jumped around and we travelled everywhere, trying to find freedom in the UK. We hitchhiked everywhere.

Eventually, we got in a spot of trouble climbing a building in London and made the news. I’ll always remember walking into my family house and my mother asking me if I had perhaps climbed a building the day before. My auntie had seen the news segment and recognised me – ‘Daredevils, Brainless Youths Climb Building’ , the headline.

Has this longing to be feel present influenced how you compose your music. I’ve noticed through watching your mini-documentary that you often are partial to collecting sounds directly from the environment around us. ‘Gotye’ was the first person I heard doing this. Has anyone else’s work inspired you to record from your surroundings?

The person I saw doing it the most was Cosmo Sheldrake . ‘Found sounds’ are a really fun thing – if you start thinking a lot about your own relationship with the world then a very easy way to explore this is by recording the world that you are in. I think sometimes it’s very easy to think you can just forage through the internet and gather the sounds you need from there. For example, if I was looking for the sound of a storm you would think it would be better to get professional clips online and go from there. Weirdly it doesn’t work like this, I’ve found that there’s something special about recording the sounds yourself.

I enjoy the process a lot more than the outcome in general (which can also be my downfall at times).

*************** Extra Snippet: *Here’s a little cool snippet from our chat (I couldn’t find a specific place for) of Finnegan explaining how he writes his lyrics (it will become relevant in the next question). He describes his three tick checklist a lyric has to have before he let’s it live within his music.

Every song I write must have:

-A relatable meaning for a child listening: -A relatable meaning for an adult listening: -A relatable meaning for someone who listens to the song again and again: All three are completely separate but as long as those three meanings are there in the lyrics of a song then I’m happy with it. **************

Moving onto the stunning debut single ‘ Once I’m Gone ‘ – Could you tell us a bit about that and what it’s all about? Was it hard to make and let go of?

Sometimes it feels like I can’t be completely honest about how much time goes into a song. Usually the song itself in the end doesn’t always necessarily justify how long it took. The bridge of ‘Once I’m Gone’ took me so so long, I just couldn’t do it – I was going off on a musical pilgrimage to get the right balance. It was difficult and one would think the end result would be the world best recorded bridge.

I think the reason the bridge was so hard is because it was the last element to go in. The song was written, recorded pretty much and the final thing to add was the bridge. As a result, it became something that had to be perfect and I didn’t have the same freedom to express myself as I had at the beginning of the writing stage of the song.

Lyrically, ‘Once I’m Gone’ was probably one of the more simplistic songs I’ve written. It ticks the three boxes though.

-It’s about a boy who wants to run away in a storm (this is the relatable meaning for a child. ) – The relationship between a child and a parent or innocence and wisdom – (relatable for an Adult Listener) -Yearning for a feeling, a sense of belonging, knowing that there’s more to life – (relatable meaning for someone who listens again and again )

It’s essentially about ‘coming of age’.

Do you think the amount of time you spent on ‘Once I’m Gone’ was partly due to it being the first release and the pressure that comes with that?

Not necessarily, I’ve always had this happen to me. There’s a guitar based song called ‘She’ that I wrote a little while ago. It started off as a simple track where I thought it would be pretty easy to record. The formula was intended as ‘Sing, play and record’ – simple. It’s got three hundred different tracks running through it now. Obviously you’ve been writing music for years, ever since you were a youngster really. Were you always patient about releasing your music at the right time or were you ever thinking ‘I want to be a star now’.

Hmm it’s a good question, I suppose I can sum it up like this: If I had to impress you with a canvas and a paintbrush and some paint – the easiest way to do this is for me to draw tons of lines, loads of them – a weird maze or technical, geometric pattern. You would look at that and think ‘Yeah, okay, that’s kind of impressive’. But if I had to impress you with a canvas, a paintbrush and was only allowed to draw three lines, it would be much more difficult as I would have to capture something different and those lines would have to mean more individually. For me, it’s always been more difficult to write a song with four chords than one with a thousand chords. It’s easy to write something crazy in a session but very difficult when I have to to reduce it down. As soon as reduction became a goal (refining my sound) there was a switch in me where I had a lot more respect for people making songs with four chords. Reducing and learning to refine is the main reason why it took me so long to release my first single.

A few years ago, I released a song called ‘The Mask’ – but it was deemed too long and it took too long to get to the bridge etc. A label advised me against releasing it as it wasn’t refined and easy for the listener. It was disheartening but I subsequently took their advice on board.

Who are your musical Influences, if any: past or present? The music I listen to is all electronic ambient – Rival Consoles , mainly Rival Consoles actually and some classical stuff. When I was eight years old I had a CD player and used to listen to one CD everyday and it was by The Levellers . I also listened to a Mozart compilation album as a kid and got inspired by it.

Justin Vernon is an influence. I just love ‘Creeks’, he totally captured something special there. I haven’t gone deep into his back catalogue but ‘Creeks’ just hit home. I also like Trip Hop. Artists like Portishead especially are great. Nick Drake too was a childhood listen.

You are currently and have been working with some top tier producers in London. Namely Charlie Andrew and Matt Lawrence. What’s that been like? Yeah, It’s amazing working with Charlie. He did wonderful things with Alt-J. They (Alt-J) did a fantastic job of blending styles together – it never sounded like one sound was tacked onto the next, it was seamless production. Charlie was a big contributor to their success and being around him is so cool. He is great. Matt Lawrence produced ‘Once I’m Gone’ – he has become a mentor for me. His CV is incredible, working with Adele , The White Stripes , Ed Sheeran – so it’s been valuable hearing his thoughts and picking up tips from him.

I’ve seen you’ve collaborated with an Irish Traditional outfit called Lankum – how did this come about and if collaboration is an avenue you’ll be utilising more of in the coming years?

I met Lankum on a trip to Dublin a few years ago. They are amazing and I’m honored to be doing a cover of one of theirs. I love to work with other artists if they are up for it. It’s the beginning for me and I’m very open. I’m going to be heading up to Throwing Snow ’s studio in Bath for a few days soon. He has a studio in a castle so that’s going to be super exciting to see what comes of it.     My housemate Jasper is also a producer and we are working together super well. We’ve done two songs already. There are other exciting things brewing too, but I can’t say here.

What’s next for us? What can we expect from you soon? Yeah, so my best friend Jack Tierney is doing everything visual for me for all of this. We spent a year organising and talking about our friendship and ideas for the music project.

We’ve lived together every day for the last eight years; we are close and came up with an idea for a film about yearning, duality and coming of age. What will happen is that a song will come out alongside a video. Another song will follow with another music video – all separate stories about separate characters. When the album gets released it will be accompanied by a film – there, all the characters will align in one big timeline – a short film of around 30 minutes length which will be called ‘Zephyr’. This will be the name of the record too.

We’ve shot this already over the span of a few weeks and these visuals and this storyline is what’s going on alongside my next releases .

We have a very sucessful Kickstarter campaign to thank for this. Excited to get it all out.

Finnegan Tui ‘s next single is titled More and was released on 28th July 2021.

German tour operator FTI is filing for insolvency and canceling future trips

• Copy Link copied

BERLIN (AP) — German tour operator FTI said Monday that it is filing for insolvency protection from creditors, and trips that haven’t yet started will be canceled or scaled back.

FTI Group, which describes itself as Europe’s third-biggest tour operator, said parent company FTI Touristik GmbH, was filing an application for the opening of insolvency proceedings at a Munich court.

Since an announcement in April that a consortium of investors would come on board, “booking figures have fallen well short of expectations despite the positive news,” the company said in a statement.

“In addition, numerous suppliers have insisted on advance payment,” it added. “As a result, there was an increased need for liquidity, which could no longer be bridged until the closing of the investor process,” making the insolvency filing a legal necessity.

The operator said it is working to ensure that trips that have already started can be completed as planned, but “trips that have not yet begun will probably no longer be possible or only partially possible from Tuesday.”

A support website and hotline were set up for customers affected.

The Munich-based FTI Group has over 11,000 employees.

Out of the Centre

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.
