Tainui Richmond ‘Forever A Boi’ Album

Tainui Richmond has released his new record, ‘Forever A Boi’.This quirky album is a nine-track collection of melodically lush tunes with witty songwriting sprinkled on top. Richmond blends sugar-sweet melodies and twinkling warm guitar between intricate beats to create songs laced in laid back bliss. ‘Procrastinate’ is a sublime example of his rich layering and dreamy pop melodies while the lyrics discuss the dangers of putting tasks off and avoiding them until tomorrow. This album has a retro feel as Richmond takes supple doo-wop melodies like in ‘Complacent’ and peppers them with refined instrumentation of elegant keys and steady beats. His velvety vocals present the songs lyrical humour with charm as the track ventures into more psychedelic tones. There are plenty of opulent sounds to enjoy within ‘Forever A Boi’, there is something for everyone, from soft jazz elements to indie embellishments, psychedelic flurries, and warm country tones.
