| More about Berm:
Berm is an unsung superstar from New Zealand. There is no point to hyperbole this magnificent enigmatic musician & artist, for he is one of the most underrated talents this side of the Pacific Rim; In fact, he stands at the periphery of America & Europe as the most likely of fantastic unknown stars. "Tonight" is one utter, complete, total & more than words can describe, hit. Major label & independent entities should model their incorporated & pie in the sky fanatic energy on artists like Berm, because based upon this cut, he is so good that it's just not even funny. You don't believe us? Just go listen to "Tonight." It is an utterly masterful piece of pop-melodic beauty. It's the type of tune that one never tires of. This is Berm. The fact that the tune consists of two-half bar chord sequences plus a bridge is just the tip of the production. It's the surface of an emotional & musical iceberg when one listens to the momentum of the track as it builds further & deeper into the ethereal feeling that transcends the listeners senses & brings one to Berm. It's as if the song itself is some kind of additive health food herb that one simply cannot get enough of. Plus Berm is so full of cryptic humility & lack of ego, that it just perpetuates the aura of his music. Berm makes us wonder onwards. "Fire Of Your Love" contains intimate & warm expressive tone, coupled with sax undercurrents, acoustic guitar nuance & lyrical fire.The warm nature of the tune shines through to a new dawn. "Here I Am" showcases a touching, intimate & vulnerable stance, simultaneously self revealing & atmospheric. A gem of melancholy work, concerning the direction of relationship tangents upon the ocean of emotion. "Jerusalem" in its infinite wisdom highlights a more lyrical & reflective mode, both post modern & inventive; But as contrast to "Man D.O.A." ; An up tempo alternative pop-rock gem bordering on punk-pop sensibilities via progressive neo-new wave 21st century enigma of sonic proportion. We are all gonna die anyway, but what of the happenings past the temporal 3-dimensional existence? 
Berm questions & expositions a myriad of contemporary & ultimate lyrical & philosophical questions all adorned in a marvelous layer of music that is utterly self created & forms perspectives of pain & redemption, survival & success. Berm is ultimately one of the unsung heroes of the world independent music movement & to say that he is anything but an undiscovered rainbow of musical melodic hybrid original passion, inspiration & vision, would be an understatement. Berm in his humility stands in the shadow of the great pop-meisters of the ages. An unsung hero in the music world at large, for posterity. Visit the Berm website |
