BRYCE WASTNEY 'AIN’T NO FLAME' VIDEO SINGLE OUT NOW
‘‘Ain’t No Flame’ is the first single from Bryce Wastney’s 4th studio album, a song that was inspired by the deadly fires in Nelson Tasman in 2019.
“The song was written and played solo using my loop station.” Explains Wastney. “Each section is performed live, building layers as I play it, as the song builds you can feel the intensity.”
“When the devastating fires happened in Nelson Tasman it was a very scary time. Many of our homes (including mine) were close to the flames and the fire service did an amazing job keeping it under control.”
!”I wanted to explore the idea that has become the basis of all fire fighting. That is remove the fuel and the fire will burn out. It’s a concept that we can all relate to in other aspects of human relationships.” says Bryce.
Wastney has always worked alongside recording engineers on previous tracks, and this time he wanted to make this new single in his own Recording Studio. Engineer, Mike McCarthy mastered the track in his studio in Auckland, NZ. Mike worked with Wastney on his Hope Mountain Album in 2014.
The music video helps the listeners get an insight from the images and flames. Filmed in Wastney’s studio by Jess Shirley , the video also features dramatic live footage from the California fires.
“I hope this song helps listeners get a feeling of respect for fire and also the changes we are seeing in our natural seasons and environment.”
