Sexy website!

The dude with the sexy website scores another hit!!

Really enjoyed this listen. This is so cool. The Caribbean Rap and the vocal harmonies make this stand out as unique. They should put Get Out into the public emergency address system. That would be fun. ;)

Fantastic!

I just looked at your video of Get Out with the lyrics and I think this song is fantastic!

Admirable!

What a great song and production! You really got that sunny feeling in it, the reggae and all that works just perfectly for this song. And what a great job you did on the singing with all those background vocals.

  Wolfi, Austria

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Cool

I liked the guitars and the rhythms in Get Out very much. Did you sing all of the vocals yourself? I didn't know you make solar powered music, btw, which is cool.

Fun song

I like the Reggae feel of Get Out. Great guitar work.

I love this song!

The sun is hitting hard and it is a drill... Get ready! Lots of styles together and lots of nice sounds.

Solar Powered Sounds

Nice! Nice player too. Sounds like Caribbean Rap to me! But not like hard core gangster, more like a mellow Jack Johnson vibe. I could picture this in a surfing video. A while back someone posted about your "Solar Powered Sounds". Had my attention. I wanna come visit, get some jams goin', and catch a few waves!

  Surfercook - Long Beach Island

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Engaging song

I like the faux-rap vocal style and the reggae rhythm in Get Out. All solar powered eh? Good work Mr Blanku!

  Dick Langford - USA

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Love your style

I love I See Stars. It's really fresh and engaging, really bursting with soul, nice groove, cheeky rhythms, just really interesting man! Gonna watch the music video again in a bit.

In the flesh

Nice to see you in the flesh. I loved the vid...probably as close to New York that I'll ever be.

  Barb - Australia

MTV

Good as anything I've ever seen on MTV. Perhaps even a bit better.

  Voclizr - USA

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Terrific song

Catchy, haunting, with an almost esoteric quality. Nice.

  Pete - Denmark

Sounds good!


  Jasper

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Cool it is for sure, looking at your wintercoat. But apart from that, the rest is cool too. Nice, man!

  Norman - Bonaire

Best thing

This is, in my opinion, the best thing I've heard from you.

  Katarrhaktes

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

So cooooool!

The new song and music video are so cooooool!

  Yoko Taniguchi - Japan

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Fits the mood

The new music video is good and fits the mood and content of the song well. I especially liked the street scenes, when you are turning and the camera was fixed on your face.

  Wolfini - Australia

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Try recording the video again in L.A. and I'll get back to you. ;)

Stuart Adamson

I think this is great. An unusual sound and feel with lots of subtle elements blending in. Something about your vocals was kind of reminding me of Stuart Adamson (RIP)

  Aux8 - Ireland

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Love the feel

Really enjoyed "Stars". Love the feel of the song and your vocal tone is excellent.

Beatles

Really enjoyed this one, has a kinda Beatles psychedelic sound.

  Surfercook - Long Beach Island

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

It's different

Love the song, has a very cruizy laid back feel to it. Your voice is very good. Looking forward to hearing more from you, I like it, it's different.

  Barb - Australia

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Love this

Wow. Love this.

Solar Powered

I See Stars is very good! And to top it all off, you saved electricity with a solar powered DAW! Awesome job!

  Bob - Australia

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

I See Stars

This reminds me of Peter Gabriel when he does the stuff I like from him. The harmonies of the orchestration in the intro is really enjoyable. At 1:34 the sky opens-up, very enjoyable mood.
Everything melts together pretty well, I like the air the guitar and vocals brings near the end. Vocals are great and the ending guitar sound is awsome.
The next song I hear Keep On Dreaming is something I got to go back too but for now restart I See Stars...
Keep on dreaming again...Great!

Sunshine

We don't get too much sun here at this time of year so this is very welcome :)
Good luck with the renewable energy project. Cheers!

Japan

I happened to find your website during searching site related to "music" & "solar power" words. I'm interested in your activities and like your music, especially "No More". I'd like to buy your CDs but have no idea how to pay postal fare for your sending them to Japan. Anyway I'll listen to your other songs. : )

  Yoko Taniguchi - Japan

[Turtuga Blanku: Hi Yoko, I don't sell physical CDs at the moment. MP3s can be bought through my website using paypal. The songs will soon be available on iTunes, as well. Cheers!]

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

water tight

To my mind, concepts like this studio are water tight. I should be able to eat food in solar powered restaurants, and buy furniture made in solar powered woodworking plants. To me a 5% premium seems fair, but I admit that others would be much more generous - perhaps willing to spend an additional 20%.

This studio might need to stay put for a year or two, but eventually the world will catch up.

Goed bezig!!!!

Al Gore

What's important is what Al Gore thinks of it.... :lol:
To me the song No More sounds very much like some others of yours. Not so much instrument wise, but the cadence/genre.

  Sungodv - Colorado

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Cool

Even though I have an ear infection and can't hear even more than usual, I can tell this is a top shelf recording. Solar studo, cool. I'll be right over.

  Undercover Bonobos - USA

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Eclectic, catchy tune

This moves along smartly. Eclectic is one word that describes the sound. Good is another. I like how the "normal" voice comes in. Catchy tune. I like it.

  TC - USA

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

It grew on me

Never been a reggie fan so I didn't think I would like this as I listened to the intro, but it grew on me as it developed. Nicely done.

Cheers

  Pete - Denmark

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Wow!

Solar powered dude! Clever tune and lyrics. Refreshing!

Calypso Reggae Pop?

You've got quite a knack....for the rhythmic rap! :lol: Whole thing reminds me a bit of Sublime. Nice player too!!

  Marc Halikas - Long Beach Island

Fresh Feel

This music just plain makes you feel good. I can't stop listening to it. Thank you for sharing such a bright and fresh feel with the world.

  Darcy - USA

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Very Good

That was very good Turtuga Blanku!!! Even though I'm not into reggae/rap.

8/10

'Holes in the Poles' - I don't really know what to think. It sort of weirded me out at first but then it made me laugh. Decent song, though I didn't really understand the whole global warming message. If there was one, anyway. 8/10.

  StevoC

Holes in the Poles

Great video and great song. Outstanding lyrics.

Interesting style

Whoa, you have a really interesting style (I have heard some of your stuff before a while back). I like the vocal processing, silky smooth! Nice layering of piano, strings and guitar, too.

  Exel

5Q's

Hi T.B. Your post at zoom prompted me to come back to your page for the 5Q's... 2nd time I've read the Interview & felt ashamed for even owning a car! I'd buy an electric if I could afford it!!!

That said... I still love your songs dude! Anything new on the horizon?

   Luv Trace. x

One day, eh?

Hi there, TB - always good to read your blog.

Funny, I remember an article in National Geographic thirty-odd years ago about harvesting energy from the difference in sea temperature between the surface and a couple of hundred feet down - no need to worry about the unpredictability of wave / wind power. Obviously too good to be true... One day, eh?

Take care mate.

  Jonny - FWONK

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Incredible

Wow. You have an awesome website. The circular sun/aztec feel is right. I like the round player too. Solar power. That's incredible.

Not my cuppa

Really good, I usually stop listening to this style of music after 10 seconds as it's just not my cuppa. Some very atmospheric vocals. I love the whispered/growled bit in the middle! Very 80's sounding, maybe Midnight Oil even though they had a different style completely.

Love the website

Again, I love the website, especially how you have the Transport Controls for the player. Very nice, unique touch!!

The song: The beat is very bouncy and infectious. Found myself bouncing my head up and down all the way through the second listen!! I also love the "island" quality, and your voice is cool.

  JB

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Impressive

You've got a good tight sound and a very recognizable style.

  Cheers, Dick

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Cool groove

I'll just tell ya that I thought the song was very good and I like that style very much.

  Cool groove, James.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Anything like this

It's got quite a dub vibe to it, I like it, nice melody. Cool happy bouncy vibe to it. I have to admit I haven't really heard anything like this

  Ace

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

My favourite so far!

Sounds good man! It's probably my favourite of what I've heard of your stuff so far. I like this more laid back style more than the upbeat ska-type stuff I've heard from you!

Previous song

Heroic image. Nice website.

Is this white reggae?

I think I preferred your previous song to this one.

  Pete

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Really jazzy lyrics

Nice song. A lot of words going on there. Really jazzy lyrics. I liked the chorus "...Don't mind me I'll keep on dreaming...". Great song, great sound, great island vibe.

  The Cracks

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The more I hear

Am getting used to this style. The more I hear the more I like it. Almost no lines of the lyrics not carrying the message. Although I like Golden Bubble best, this will get many plays.

Best Regards,

  Gu Djin

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

A very good one

This is a very good one. Great groove and I think recordingwise the vocal arrangement and the panning are very cleverly done and add a lot to this fine song.

Thumps up! Cheers,

  Dog

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Vibe

Another nice island vibe.

  rthrashburn

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

I'm sticking around

I like this a lot. The vocal comes across very well. The delivery reminds me a bit of Men at Work. Excellent ending... and I'm sticking around for the next song on the TurtugaPlayer too!

  Ferret

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Very tight.

I really like the tone of the bass. I like the growl in the vocals at that section 2/3 way through or so. Gets your attention.

I also like the integration of your player in your website, and your overall website design. Very clean.

  John Toad

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Signature sound

Usual great job as we've come to expect. I am finding the tunes sound somewhat similar to each other, but it just may be that you have a signature type of sound and song....which is fine.

  Sungodv

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

I dig your style

I dig your style. Nice feel good for sure. Pro website, instrumentation, and recording. Some insight as to your gear and recording tecnique would be cool.

  Surfercook

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Loved the music

Went on your site and loved the music. Well done. Quite Manu Chao musically but the lyrics are probably a bit better.

Strong tune

Cool, I like how the guitars just kicked in.
Strong tune, also liked the tone of the geetar solo. Quite in your face.

  Monty

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Totally love your style

OMG...This is Brilliant!
After listening to the "poles" twice...I was so excited to hear this refreshing sound, I had to listen to more of your songs! Totally love your style... Yeah I can hear something of "Zappa", a bit of "Yello", a bit of "Primus", "chilli's"...brilliant influences...but you have put this together in a totally cool new way!

It's an eccentric sound to be honest... & has star quality all over it!

Geeeeez... you did this all yourself... in your "Green Studio"! Hats off!
I think we'll be hearing more from you! Genius!!! t.x

  Tracey Leu

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

A very cool sound you've got there, love the rhythms & sounds you used. Its a great song. Cool website too!

I'll have to go solar

Hey TB, first, the music is great, good lyrics and grooves!

Second, I hadn't realized that you had a solar studio.
I'm still in the contemplative phase of going solar, but I know I'll have to go solar at some point if I want to save energy and keep costs down.
I'm probably installing a thermo siphon system to get hot water for free...

I just checked out your site, and it's great, very cool story!

I'm really digging this

Very inventive and a cool mix of styles. Sort of like Frank Zappa meets Bob Marley. I like the guitar harmonies and what they do for the 'out of control' feeling of the backing track.

(I'm still listening to the following tune... hmmmm... I think I'll stick around a while.)

Okay, I'm onto First Step. Your vocal delivery is pretty cool. Gotta write a lot a lyrics to get this kind of cadence going. Nice. Slick ending.

Be with me: Intro was Backstreet Boys? LOL Nice job on this one, too. I like the details.

  Mike

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Turtuga Blanku logo _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

I liked it.

Freshness and originality

Sounds great. It's driven by a freshness and originality that would not have occurred to me.

And pretty chic website to boot!

Nice one!

Zappa

Really funky beat. Great guitar. I like the Zappa talking parts. In fact, this song is rather Zappa.

Do a little dance

Listening to your latest track Golden Bubble I can't help but do a little dance in my chair and visualise warmer, sunnier places!

Brightened my morning

That's brightened my morning no end that has.

I like the relentless lyric delivery and the deep burbling low vocal hiding underneath it, and some real nice harmonies throughout 'Golden Bubble'.

It's impossible not to bounce to that track, very tight and groovy ... funky reggae almost.

Excellent!

Love the style! A very funky poppy reggae sound!

Hip-hop

Very interesting. seems more of a club beat which is fine. The other 2 songs more hip-hop than reggae. Where do you reside? Would love to hear something slower and more traditionally carribbean in flavor.

1,000,000 of them

O.K. so I listened to it again, but this time through the Bose Surround. It's a jewel my friend! After talking with you a few times, I was really interested to hear what you'd do next. Good job! Well worth the wait. I'll definitely be promoting this, so don't be surprised if you see your name pop up in my blog once or twice.

I personally know 20 people that would get down and dance and sing this right now, or as soon as they study the lyrics. Great subject. I hoped you had it in you.

I'll say again, the world could use your voice right now, especially right now. 1,000,000 of them. I hope this song inspires other people to write about what's going on. Even if they don't write music or play an instrument.

Here in the States, they say the shit is about to go downhill very rapidly. It's because most of us here were asleep. Not me. Thanks for your artistic interpretation of your perception of what's going on. Until next time. Keep waking 'em up!

I think it rocked!

Exactly what I was hoping to hear next. I'll put a in depth comment on here later. Keep it up, the world could use your voice right now. 1,000,000 of them. Thanks

Different

Really nice to hear something different! The song sounds familiar in a good way, not like something else but like it creates a nice comfortable feeling.

Goosebumps

This is one of those songs that I can listen to over and over!
Something about it has the ability to draw-out the goosebumps! This is headed right to the ipods!

First Step?

Listening to your most excellent 'Be With Me' made me very curious for the new song 'First Step'...

I'm looking forward to hearing it!

What can I say...

I like your style. You always manage to be artistic and special and invest in interesting and clever ideas, not just doing the common "4:4 verse-chorus-verse" thing.

'Be With Me'

This tune is bordering on some kind of insane catchiness.
