Biography
Benny Sings - Art (2011)
Benny Sings has finally graduated. With his new album Art, which was released on 27 May 2011, the multifaceted producer/composer/singer feels that it has all come together. ‘Making albums is a learning process. After every album I felt as if I completed another year at the Benny Sings Music University. And Art is my graduation project. It’s the finale to my ten years of toil. I now have my diploma. It represents my first work as a mature artist – my first real “work of art’’.’
With Art, Benny Sings believes that he has properly applied all his ideas around composition, his philosophy of music and his experience as a producer. But he was also able to let go of all of this baggage – since process should always remain elusive. ‘Sometimes a good text, a good composition and good production come together to make an okay song. It works but nothing more than that. Meanwhile, sometimes a bad text, a bad arrangement and bad production can fuse into something really amazing. Somehow the song becomes greater than its parts. It has that something extra – it’s magical. You can never predict when this will happen. Sometimes it occurs when you break all the rules, and other times it happens when you just follow them. Either way, it’s always a surprise. For this album I wanted to focus less on production and song writing and more on that one magic moment.’
