Put Manu Chao and the Red Hot Chili Peppers together in one studio and you probably get some idea of what Turtuga Blanku music sounds like. However, in my studio instead of five men, there’s one...me. I record and produce all songs in my small studio called ‘the Green Machine’.
Although foremost a musician, I am a biologist by education and at heart as well. This is reflected in some of my lyrics, but also in the way I produce music. ‘The Green Machine’ is a completely solar powered studio. By using non-fossil energy resources, I have found that you don’t have to choose between being environmentally conscious and enjoying modern day luxuries.
The combination of a European background and working with sea turtles in the past at my current Caribbean home base accounted for the nickname I was given: ‘Turtuga Blanku’ (which means ‘White Turtle’). It also led to the development of a rather fresh style of music with pop-reggae-funk influences; you think you have heard it before, but it does not sound like anything you know.
Please enjoy Turtuga Blanku music and feel free to send me any questions or comments through myspace or by using this e-mail address: contact@turtugablanku.com.
