Philipp Rehm & Tania Kross “Warawara”
Both artists are based in The Netherlands: Rehm, a known bassplayer and composer is originally from Berlin, while Kross, an internationally celebrated opera singer, was born on Curaçao. The amazing international background of these two artists is definitely portrayed within their music. Their sound has a really strong attitude and a very creative feel. The beat combines electronica and carribean sounds, Rehm’s virtuous bass guitar playing is inspired by classical scores and Tania’s unique voice blends Peruvian Baroque and celtic sounds which brings the song to a mystique level. One might also be reminded of fantastic bands like Massive Attack, Portishead or Radiohead, only to mention a few. It is quite amazing to see how many different influences can seamlessly fit within the music: this collaboration shows, that music is fun for all, and creativity knows no boundaries.
Warawara is the largest predator bird in Curaçao and it is also the name of the island’s navigation system. This meaning really highlights the international creative scope of the project, as well as the fact that these artists love to keep an open mind and create music without pre-conceptions!
