Boom! Boom! Deluxe

"Leopard Print"   digital track

(Self-issued)



For 3:57, New Zealand's Boom! Boom! Deluxe envelops listeners with teasingly languid and jazzy ambiance, from within which passions curl inviting fingers. Sultry Henrieta "Hettie LaBombe" Tornyai purrs in delicious symbiosis, her breathiness effectively redoubling steam heat.

Interviewed by NZ Musician, she daubed a fetching portrait:

"Inspired by 1950s instrumentals like 'The Stripper' by David Rose, I pictured a seedy nightclub full of smoke with a burlesque dancer stripping to the sound of a sleazy saxophone. I wanted something that would swing but still be at a driving, danceable tempo. 

"It began with a riff based around a D Blues scale written on the double bass, which is my main instrument. Right from the start I knew I wanted a baritone sax as the main feature. It really evokes the '50s and '60s, and I love that grunty sound!"
