I think that this band needs way more coverage, truly their sound is so well defined, not like deep obsessive and True Take tha piss who just oblivously blah to irriating old school techno which we all heard and nearly cried to at Entrain 95
These guys actually have an idea of real music that real people will listen to. And its also catchy, but not sickening, don't you think??

Forums: NZ Music,

hmm.... well it's not really my cup of tea but when you compare it to Deep Obsession and TB well hell they're definitely better than that. BUT I'd like to hear more from them before I raise my opinion - it's pretty Madisonesque so far - as in 'don't call me baby'

mmmm well definately better than True Bliss and Deep Obsession!! I saw the video on Squeeze yesterday. I think this debut understates what that girl is capable of vocally! I look forward to the next song,but i would go as far as to say ...better than Madison ave too ! And they seem totally independant and net savvy, which is cool!!

Yep, I read about them at web-beat.com today! Amazing that they actually write their muzac over the net!! They keep pop'n up in UK dance ezines...perhaps they are about to head that way!! They don't sound to me like they are from NZ!

I find them kindof average, only cause they seem a bit formula. dam good start tho -

Hey, have you DNE fans checked out Clearlight's video? Pretty slickly produced track, and a gorgeous video which I heard was shot by the vocalist who is a photographer when not singing/making music. Click below for a viewing...

enough!!!!!!! they don't really deserve this much attention.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Hey Nat arse if you dont like it dont click it !! I actually think they do deserve the attention....!!! I think its a cool dancable track that I would describe as a soft end of house rather that dance pop but never mind . I look forward to more!!

well... jolly good for you Mr PullRoss... "if you dont like it don't click it !!" what a dum-arsed thing to say, at least I watched it , gave it a fair go, then decided it was pooh. If I took your advise I'd watch nothing because I'd be too scared to see something I didn't like.
Opinions...... funny things eh?

Yes well! my point being looking at your other comments looks like you a bit of a rock pig! In which case why would you want to watch or listen to DNE, or is it just so you can be nasty!! Yes the internet is wonderful, for kiwi music as it takes all the power away from the kiwi knocking machine attitude!! Because those who are visiting this site from outside of NZ, those that have watched and listened to DNE are not hung up on Kiwi Rock pig attitude!! They are listening to the quality of it in its genre!

guitar = rock pigs
dance = disco drama-queens

we just listen to quality music - not genre specific fashion whore crap

I reckon I've dabbled in most "genres" of music and I think that I can tell if a track has any redeeming qualities. In any genre of music there's good and there's bad, sometimes there's enough of the bad around to grow into its own genre. Unfortunatly I think DNE has succumbed to one of these spin off genres.Maybe candy floss dance music isn't for me, I know there definatly isa lot of electronic music that I do like. I just think that DNE is following an aging Eruo trend and unless they do something special (which I haven't seen yet), they will just be another carbon copy of a carbon copy of a style that one day way-back-when actually had something special.

Well I like it!! I think the girl can sing maybe that song is not that strong, but you can hear a quality voice there. I wouldnt call it lollipop.. her voice is far too ...dare I say Black sounding!! no racist point meant!!

racist
how can that NOT be a racist comment ?

ENOUGH!!
You guys are getting far too intense.
OKay, paul ross your points are very valid and i think that mr "genre" I use big words and therefore i am cool does need to click it, yeah, state your point but stop going on about it man, go and start your own conversation and dis out everyone and anyone you that doesn't suit you.
see Rock pig the thing is...
Are you out there trying anything? Taking a chance and doing something you like to hell what everyone else thinks?? and if you are then why haven't we heard about it yet? See at least DNE are giving it a shot going above and beyond people like you who sit here and dis them out...
deep breath...
nothing personal but i disagree rockpig with what you are saying - but peace eh? no more arguing children please i have a headache

Hey guys this is me Aly. I'm the singer from DNE. Hey chill out! Firstly datehole I'm not a whore! David and I have been writing music together since before Truebliss and for that matter Deep Obsession existed and indeed before Spicegirls were on the scene!! We dont try to follow a trend we write what we write and thats it really! Just bear in mind that the shape of Be There has a lot to do with the Producer..he did all the programming and sampling and this can change dramatically what you write. I am actually pleased with the job he did!! I'm sorry you don't like it but each to the own eh!!

http://www.dne.net.nz ]

WHEW!!!!....now that was fun wasn't it kids.... Its gtreat to get it all out.
Jett... thanks for the great topic its been entertaining.
Ally... I guess the producer does have a lot to do with it, but I think I'll give it a rest for now. Be nice to see what you come up with next. ;-)

I dont know how I did that three times ?? oops!

Yes, interesting to say the least!

The second single is a much stronger song I feel!! So hope you will like it! Just about to head to the big smoke and do it!! Next couple of weeks!

sorry aly - i didn't mean you were the 'whore'! :(
I meant that some people with strict musical tastes can be 'fashion-whores' - in that they follow what trends are 'hip' and 'now' rather than trusting their own instincts to move away from mainstream music opinion. i guess i find the rock-vs-dance thing really dumb cos i don't know anyone who only listens to one genre. anyway, enufs enuf - I actually had very little to add to this conversation anyways. good luck and i hope ypou do even better with the next single etc.

ah well, at least we are talking about something eh! wot next?

THank goodness for that. Lets just all rise together to wish them and every other up and coming group the best for what the future may hold. no matter what genre they are, every band deserves a chance surely- i mean True bliss got a huge one and they are probably about the least deserving.
But anyways, thats channel 2 and kiwiana for ya

How about the size of those boobs ....no offence Ally but they are quite wicked especially in the black dress...phew!!

(muzza wipes the sweat from his brow!!)

grotty old bugga

I think it is his way of showing admiration of Aly's physique!! but sweating about it yess...a bit grotty agreed!!

STOP!

no!!!

Aly if you visit again can you tell us when the second single and CDR is going to be released ?

Awesome DNE on MTV ! Well done I reckon! Shove it to them. You don't get much more international potential, than getting on to MTV in the UK..I suppose maybe MTV in the US is bigger ?

When is the next single coming ???

canadians are wierd.

http://www.foxxanime.homestead.com ]

are DNE from Canada ?? I thought this was New Zealand Music ??

If you guys like Alys vocals then check out dne website for info on her own songs she's recorded.
Bloody marvelous actually!
Good on ya girl, keep up the excellent work!
Xrisy

I did check out aly's other site....took me a couple of searches to find but I got it at www.mp3.com/alyC I just really came in to say I really like the new DNE single called The Cause I heard it at www.mp3.net.nz

cool!!! Where's the video
