Today I was at Southbank.. met with one of the other resident artists called Rafael Bonachela who is a contemporary choreographer, and is top of his field.
When he creates a new work he tours it around the world for year or more, and he wanted to chat about the idea of creating a new piece of contempary dance based around some of my beatboxing. This sounds really interesting to me as there is a lot of movement when I am onstage… it’s just totally disorganised.
I really look up to his way of working.. he spends a year getting the most out of all his ideas and collaborators. Suddenly my recent projects and collaborations feel like I have just been playing with a toy for 5 minutes before spitting it out and playing with a new one.
I consider myself to be in development right now. I would like to lock myself away for 6 months to work on some new music but I am too obsessed with out-doing myself onstage. Maybe I’ll calm down a bit as I become more musically mature. Right now I am having too much fun to change a thing.
