Name
timtulip
Where did your band name come from?
From the old song by Tiny Tim - tiptoe through the tulips.
Describe your sound
Party music. Anything that moves the dancefloor. From abusive electro, smooth tech, to bouncy fidget. You like that, don't you?
Who are your influences, musical or otherwise?
Tool - pure brilliance. Then gods like Lavelle, Jon Carter when he was doing wicked dancehall with Monkey Mafia, Booka Shade, Freeland, Stanton Warriors and recently Hot Pink Delorean.
What's the weirdest experience you've had whilst performing?
I'm not sure if I'm prepared to tell you about my actions from in between the sheets.
What's your biggest achievement/proudest moment so far?
Being able to play gigs in Canberra after being on the decks for just over a year. Absolutely loving it.
What are your plans for the future?
Play parties! Parties!!! PARTIES!!!!
What makes you laugh?
The people that take life seriously. Just have a laugh, eh?
What pisses you off?
Money. Also, see above
What's your opinion of the local scene?
I've been clubbing in Canberra for ten years and at the moment it's at its best. The amount of people in the scene now is strong and it's awesome. Huge international and interstate acts coming to a town that was easily missed years ago. Gigs supported by a massive range of local acts. Promoters are doing a great job. Canberra is just getting stronger and stronger and doing it pretty well.
What are your upcoming gigs?
Next one is supporting the Boys Noize Records tour at Academy, Friday September 4! Pang!'s first Academy night! Also my first time being able to play at Academy. SO pumped for this one. Hoping for a wild night.
