Single Review: Street Noise

Tarn PK

Review by Gaby Ivanov-Giraldo // 3 March 2022

Singer songwriter and producer Tarn PK has been emerging in New Zealand’s music scene. He is a Wellington-based artist who, so far, has released two EP’s, received over 500 thousand streams on Spotify, and has landed himself in various Apple and Spotify playlists. His latest single Street Noise is here on the 4th of March, and it comes with big energy!

This track is a delicate alt-pop wonder, with hyperpop influence and indie folk undertones. Smooth production meets talented vocals, mixed with layered and rhythmic digital landscapes. The heaviness of the song is explosive, fashioning a darkness representing our deepest fears and intrusive thoughts. Tarn PK takes a journey of the self, where he learns to deal with what he cannot mentally block out.

Street Noise is a contemplative track that opens with a downtempo beat, and has a sonorous finish. I thoroughly enjoyed how Tarn PK pieces together this song; it’s very catchy, progressive, and would be a huge hit amongst any digi lovers. Heck, why box him!? This genre is “the future”.

About the author Gaby Ivanov-Giraldo

If I tried to explain all the reasons I do music, we’d be here all day. Basically, I’m here to support an industry that needs it and show people it’s still very much alive. I’ve been going to live events for as long as I can remember. I love the people in this world, the stories I hear, and helping artists get the recognition they deserve. I’ve been with Muzic NZ for over six years now, writing and figuring out how to make music make sense to more people. I also dabble in music myself for fun, and writing about it has been the best way I can stay connected to it.
