1 00:00:07,133 --> 00:00:10,493 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack team podcast 2 00:00:10,613 --> 00:00:11,773 Speaker 1: from News Talks at b. 3 00:00:31,253 --> 00:00:43,013 Speaker 2: Rejoin up at the Yes Accident more in a New Zealand. 4 00:00:43,253 --> 00:00:45,773 Speaker 2: You're a jactative on Newstalks. The'd be this is Troy 5 00:00:45,893 --> 00:00:48,093 Speaker 2: Kingy and you would have to say, Troy Kingy is 6 00:00:48,133 --> 00:00:52,333 Speaker 2: a man on a mission. Ten albums and ten genres 7 00:00:52,573 --> 00:00:56,213 Speaker 2: over ten years. Throughout the project, Troy has carved a 8 00:00:56,373 --> 00:01:02,413 Speaker 2: remarkable reputation for musical versatility and talent. Last month, he 9 00:01:02,493 --> 00:01:05,693 Speaker 2: released album number eight in the ten ten ten project, 10 00:01:05,893 --> 00:01:10,133 Speaker 2: leave Them in the Mojave Green. Of course, Estelle music 11 00:01:10,173 --> 00:01:13,093 Speaker 2: reviewer on Saturday Mornings gave it ten out of ten. 12 00:01:13,333 --> 00:01:16,893 Speaker 2: She reckons it was extraordinary, a rock album that has 13 00:01:16,973 --> 00:01:21,373 Speaker 2: brought Troy Kingey back to his roots. And now somehow, somehow, 14 00:01:21,573 --> 00:01:23,933 Speaker 2: Troy is squeezing in a tour of New Zealand before 15 00:01:24,013 --> 00:01:27,093 Speaker 2: getting to work on the final two albums in his 16 00:01:27,213 --> 00:01:30,013 Speaker 2: ten ten ten series, and Troy is with us this morning. 17 00:01:30,053 --> 00:01:32,093 Speaker 2: Ah Tomuddy Ekilda, good morning. 18 00:01:32,253 --> 00:01:34,293 Speaker 3: Ten ou queer Jack. Thank you for having me. 19 00:01:34,333 --> 00:01:36,933 Speaker 2: Thank you for being here. I think we should talk 20 00:01:36,973 --> 00:01:38,613 Speaker 2: process and I know that you're not the kind of 21 00:01:38,653 --> 00:01:41,813 Speaker 2: guy who likes to be too retrospective and think about 22 00:01:41,813 --> 00:01:44,813 Speaker 2: the past too much. But just for the sake of context, 23 00:01:44,893 --> 00:01:47,693 Speaker 2: can you talk us through the process for recording leather 24 00:01:47,773 --> 00:01:48,733 Speaker 2: Man in the Mahabi Green. 25 00:01:50,453 --> 00:01:54,173 Speaker 3: There's quite a big process obviously. The first part of 26 00:01:54,213 --> 00:01:58,973 Speaker 3: that is trying to find funding to get somewhere, and 27 00:01:59,173 --> 00:02:02,213 Speaker 3: we happen to record this album over in Joshua Tree 28 00:02:02,333 --> 00:02:06,973 Speaker 3: in La So there was a lot of the funds 29 00:02:07,013 --> 00:02:10,253 Speaker 3: together to get over there. Luckily we were able to 30 00:02:10,293 --> 00:02:14,733 Speaker 3: get Tom Herne and Tofaki on board to film this 31 00:02:14,773 --> 00:02:19,813 Speaker 3: documentary and that essentially got us over there. So, but 32 00:02:19,973 --> 00:02:24,653 Speaker 3: the big impetus behind going over there was those that 33 00:02:24,773 --> 00:02:27,693 Speaker 3: don't know I'm doing a ten ten ten series where 34 00:02:27,733 --> 00:02:30,333 Speaker 3: I'm trying to do ten albums in ten years, ten 35 00:02:30,373 --> 00:02:35,173 Speaker 3: different genres. This was number eight. Yeah, and when you 36 00:02:35,213 --> 00:02:37,853 Speaker 3: try and put something like that in front of you, 37 00:02:37,853 --> 00:02:39,653 Speaker 3: you're going to head a wall at some point. And 38 00:02:39,733 --> 00:02:42,933 Speaker 3: I feel like last year was that war. So going 39 00:02:42,973 --> 00:02:46,573 Speaker 3: over to the desert was me trying to rekindle the 40 00:02:46,773 --> 00:02:49,893 Speaker 3: flame that got me into this industry in the first place. Yeah. 41 00:02:49,933 --> 00:02:52,893 Speaker 2: So Joshua Tree, for people who don't know, California middle 42 00:02:52,893 --> 00:02:55,693 Speaker 2: of the desert like forty degrees every day. It is dry, 43 00:02:56,213 --> 00:02:58,853 Speaker 2: it is a super harsh environment, and there is this 44 00:02:58,933 --> 00:03:02,813 Speaker 2: amazing studio there. Rancho de la Luna like Rancho of 45 00:03:02,933 --> 00:03:06,133 Speaker 2: the of the Moon talk to us about that environment. 46 00:03:07,173 --> 00:03:10,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've known about this place for over two decades now. 47 00:03:11,293 --> 00:03:14,173 Speaker 3: One of my all time favorite bands, Queens of the 48 00:03:14,213 --> 00:03:17,293 Speaker 3: Stone Age, recorded songs for the Death back there that 49 00:03:17,373 --> 00:03:20,373 Speaker 3: come out in two thousand and two. It's still my 50 00:03:20,373 --> 00:03:24,853 Speaker 3: favorite album to this day. So when Matt, who works 51 00:03:24,893 --> 00:03:28,133 Speaker 3: at the label I'm with, suggested we go over there, 52 00:03:28,253 --> 00:03:30,133 Speaker 3: I always thought it was just a pipe dream. But 53 00:03:30,613 --> 00:03:35,293 Speaker 3: actually standing there, you know Dave Catching who's also in 54 00:03:35,373 --> 00:03:37,373 Speaker 3: Queens of the Stone Age, who name Queens of the 55 00:03:37,413 --> 00:03:40,653 Speaker 3: Stone Age, he runs the studio. So just being able 56 00:03:40,653 --> 00:03:43,413 Speaker 3: to sit with him and him to say, hey, Josh, 57 00:03:43,773 --> 00:03:47,053 Speaker 3: use this guitar on the song, or Dave Grohl was 58 00:03:47,093 --> 00:03:51,293 Speaker 3: playing the exact same thing. You know, you can't help 59 00:03:51,333 --> 00:03:56,373 Speaker 3: but just get excited and inspired. So yeah, it's nothing amazing. 60 00:03:56,453 --> 00:03:59,333 Speaker 3: It doesn't look anything like it's no Abbey Road or 61 00:03:59,333 --> 00:04:03,053 Speaker 3: anything like that, but it's basically a house in the 62 00:04:03,093 --> 00:04:06,813 Speaker 3: middle of the desert with all these cool trinkets, just 63 00:04:06,853 --> 00:04:09,053 Speaker 3: the way I like it. It's super rough. 64 00:04:09,133 --> 00:04:14,373 Speaker 2: And ready, and so you went there seeking inspiration. Why 65 00:04:14,413 --> 00:04:16,293 Speaker 2: do you think you'd hit that block? Is it just 66 00:04:16,333 --> 00:04:18,653 Speaker 2: because you've been churning out so much stuff over the 67 00:04:18,733 --> 00:04:20,373 Speaker 2: last few years as part of the ten ten ten. 68 00:04:21,373 --> 00:04:24,453 Speaker 3: Yeah. I keep saying it's a creative block, but it's 69 00:04:24,453 --> 00:04:28,533 Speaker 3: probably more. I'm still able to create a lot of stuff, 70 00:04:28,573 --> 00:04:31,253 Speaker 3: but I was just at a point where I was 71 00:04:31,413 --> 00:04:36,013 Speaker 3: questioning all my directions and back in the beginning, I'll 72 00:04:36,093 --> 00:04:38,493 Speaker 3: just write for the love of writing, and things would 73 00:04:38,533 --> 00:04:41,653 Speaker 3: just flow the way they flowed, and I felt like 74 00:04:41,733 --> 00:04:45,373 Speaker 3: I kind of lost that. So actually going back to 75 00:04:45,413 --> 00:04:48,773 Speaker 3: a genre or style that is probably the core of 76 00:04:48,813 --> 00:04:52,893 Speaker 3: who I am. It was timely, It was like perfect 77 00:04:52,893 --> 00:04:57,853 Speaker 3: timing and somewhere like that. It wasn't just the studio, 78 00:04:57,933 --> 00:05:00,493 Speaker 3: it was the desert, it was the people. We had 79 00:05:00,493 --> 00:05:02,893 Speaker 3: a few cool experiences over there and it all just 80 00:05:02,973 --> 00:05:07,333 Speaker 3: culminated in what we have in the Mahavi Green. 81 00:05:07,693 --> 00:05:11,013 Speaker 2: Let's talk about some of those cool experiences. And for 82 00:05:11,053 --> 00:05:13,773 Speaker 2: anyone who hasn't seen it, I cannot recommend Troy Kingy's 83 00:05:13,773 --> 00:05:17,293 Speaker 2: Desert Hikoy on TVNZ plus enough because it's amazing. So 84 00:05:17,333 --> 00:05:18,853 Speaker 2: you went over the head out into the desert in 85 00:05:18,893 --> 00:05:21,413 Speaker 2: the middle of the night. That was that was pretty special. 86 00:05:21,853 --> 00:05:25,973 Speaker 2: But you really leaned into the search for inspiration because 87 00:05:25,973 --> 00:05:29,413 Speaker 2: you decided to do a cultural ceremony where you took psilocybin, 88 00:05:29,653 --> 00:05:32,653 Speaker 2: you took magic mushrooms. How was that? 89 00:05:33,453 --> 00:05:37,253 Speaker 3: I was quite anxious about it, actually, because people will 90 00:05:37,293 --> 00:05:39,373 Speaker 3: listen to a few of my albums and think I'm 91 00:05:39,453 --> 00:05:43,173 Speaker 3: a super draggy dude when I'm on very straight edge. 92 00:05:44,413 --> 00:05:46,093 Speaker 3: You know, I've got five kids. I got to be 93 00:05:46,213 --> 00:05:50,333 Speaker 3: on the ball all the time. So but I just 94 00:05:50,373 --> 00:05:53,773 Speaker 3: wanted to embrace everything, and especially Joshua Tree in the 95 00:05:53,813 --> 00:05:57,933 Speaker 3: Desert is it goes in conjunction with that sort of 96 00:05:57,933 --> 00:06:01,933 Speaker 3: thing trips or psiloicobin or whatever you want to call it. 97 00:06:02,333 --> 00:06:04,813 Speaker 3: And initially we were supposed to do ayahuasca, and then 98 00:06:04,853 --> 00:06:06,893 Speaker 3: one of my friends is like, ah, I probably don't 99 00:06:06,893 --> 00:06:09,293 Speaker 3: want to do that straight out the bat. You probably want, 100 00:06:09,493 --> 00:06:11,613 Speaker 3: you know, you want to train for like a few months. 101 00:06:12,533 --> 00:06:14,733 Speaker 3: It started a bit easier, and so they suggested that 102 00:06:14,813 --> 00:06:17,813 Speaker 3: we do mushrooms and I'd never done that before. I 103 00:06:17,853 --> 00:06:23,173 Speaker 3: didn't know what to expect, and I can't quite recall 104 00:06:23,333 --> 00:06:25,533 Speaker 3: a lot of that thing, but I know it felt 105 00:06:25,573 --> 00:06:28,413 Speaker 3: really good. And then all I know is the next morning, 106 00:06:28,413 --> 00:06:32,093 Speaker 3: I just woke up and songs just started writing themselves 107 00:06:32,173 --> 00:06:34,773 Speaker 3: at like five in the morning. So I don't know 108 00:06:34,773 --> 00:06:38,253 Speaker 3: what unblocked. But from that point to the toil we 109 00:06:38,293 --> 00:06:40,533 Speaker 3: got home, everything just seemed to flow really nice. 110 00:06:40,693 --> 00:06:43,173 Speaker 2: It was like a creative river. That's the term you 111 00:06:43,613 --> 00:06:47,053 Speaker 2: use it, that's it. Yeah, was that a scary thing to. 112 00:06:47,013 --> 00:06:51,293 Speaker 3: Do hard up out. I don't know how people do that, 113 00:06:51,533 --> 00:06:54,173 Speaker 3: you know, like at festivals or out in the public. 114 00:06:54,533 --> 00:06:56,973 Speaker 3: I'm just glad that we had this nice, confined space 115 00:06:57,733 --> 00:07:01,893 Speaker 3: with actual experts that could help us go through that journey. 116 00:07:02,173 --> 00:07:02,373 Speaker 2: Yeah. 117 00:07:04,053 --> 00:07:06,933 Speaker 3: And I even said in the Docker, I loved experience. 118 00:07:06,933 --> 00:07:09,813 Speaker 3: I don't need to go back there for the time being, 119 00:07:09,893 --> 00:07:13,533 Speaker 3: but I love it for what it was. Yeah. 120 00:07:13,813 --> 00:07:20,333 Speaker 2: Did you think there's something like a primal connection that 121 00:07:20,373 --> 00:07:22,533 Speaker 2: people have with being in the desert, because it's funny 122 00:07:22,733 --> 00:07:25,573 Speaker 2: like being from ALTI or being MILDI like, we don't 123 00:07:25,613 --> 00:07:29,093 Speaker 2: really have a desert my experience here, right, But I 124 00:07:29,133 --> 00:07:32,453 Speaker 2: wonder if there's something like at an even kind of 125 00:07:32,493 --> 00:07:35,493 Speaker 2: deeper level, something like really human or you know, that 126 00:07:35,533 --> 00:07:38,213 Speaker 2: there's something kind of in our matter that connects us 127 00:07:38,253 --> 00:07:41,453 Speaker 2: to those Maybe it's the insignificance of being in the desert. 128 00:07:42,013 --> 00:07:43,893 Speaker 2: Did you did you feel that kind of primal? 129 00:07:45,173 --> 00:07:50,733 Speaker 3: Definitely. We had another friend of mine, Mark Russell, who's 130 00:07:50,773 --> 00:07:55,013 Speaker 3: been documenting my journey for about sex or seven years actually, 131 00:07:56,013 --> 00:07:57,933 Speaker 3: and he would get up earlier as to see the 132 00:07:57,973 --> 00:08:00,813 Speaker 3: sunrise and then he'd go up before the sunset to 133 00:08:00,853 --> 00:08:04,693 Speaker 3: take photos and oh, man, it's just a beautiful place. 134 00:08:04,773 --> 00:08:08,733 Speaker 3: And you're right, it does. It does show you how 135 00:08:08,813 --> 00:08:11,653 Speaker 3: insignificant you are in the greatest scheme of things, and 136 00:08:11,733 --> 00:08:16,773 Speaker 3: you were just flawed by the beauty of the environment 137 00:08:17,093 --> 00:08:19,493 Speaker 3: and you did go back to the core of who 138 00:08:19,533 --> 00:08:22,533 Speaker 3: you are, and it was all soul searching, all of 139 00:08:22,573 --> 00:08:25,493 Speaker 3: that sort of thing. Without having to try and soul search, 140 00:08:25,573 --> 00:08:28,933 Speaker 3: you just were in a place that made you think 141 00:08:28,973 --> 00:08:29,853 Speaker 3: that way. You know. 142 00:08:30,333 --> 00:08:34,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, have your fans reacted to the range of different 143 00:08:34,933 --> 00:08:38,293 Speaker 2: sounds that you've produced in the eight albums that you've 144 00:08:38,573 --> 00:08:40,453 Speaker 2: released under the ten ten ten so far? 145 00:08:42,133 --> 00:08:45,213 Speaker 3: I think I have an amazing fan base that are 146 00:08:45,293 --> 00:08:48,133 Speaker 3: kind of just with me now that I got people 147 00:08:48,173 --> 00:08:49,933 Speaker 3: suggesting like, what are you doing next? You're going to 148 00:08:50,013 --> 00:08:51,613 Speaker 3: do a techno album or you're going to do a 149 00:08:51,693 --> 00:08:55,773 Speaker 3: death metal album. So right at the beginning, I was 150 00:08:55,773 --> 00:08:58,413 Speaker 3: a bit worried that I was going to alienate my 151 00:08:58,453 --> 00:09:01,293 Speaker 3: fan base. You know, they might love the reggae album 152 00:09:01,413 --> 00:09:03,373 Speaker 3: and just say, why don't you just stick to that 153 00:09:03,613 --> 00:09:07,813 Speaker 3: or the sole album. So once I got to album 154 00:09:07,893 --> 00:09:09,533 Speaker 3: number four, I was just like, oh, well we're in 155 00:09:09,533 --> 00:09:12,173 Speaker 3: this now. Yeah, you're either with me or you're not. 156 00:09:12,373 --> 00:09:14,693 Speaker 3: That's fine, but I'm going to do this thing. And 157 00:09:14,693 --> 00:09:17,253 Speaker 3: and I've got quite a loyal fan base, so that's 158 00:09:17,293 --> 00:09:17,813 Speaker 3: pretty cool. 159 00:09:17,893 --> 00:09:20,493 Speaker 2: And you said earlier that this feels like you're kind 160 00:09:20,493 --> 00:09:24,133 Speaker 2: of original sound in a sense of kind of desit rock. Yeah, 161 00:09:24,533 --> 00:09:25,973 Speaker 2: is that is that accurate? 162 00:09:26,373 --> 00:09:29,853 Speaker 3: Well, if you listen to my very first album, which 163 00:09:29,893 --> 00:09:34,613 Speaker 3: is probably more blues indie stuff, but there's definitely elements 164 00:09:34,613 --> 00:09:38,773 Speaker 3: of this, And you know, being a first album, everyone's 165 00:09:38,813 --> 00:09:42,493 Speaker 3: first album, they've had like however long to write that album, 166 00:09:42,573 --> 00:09:47,013 Speaker 3: so it's quite a clectic but yeah, you definitely hear 167 00:09:47,053 --> 00:09:50,853 Speaker 3: elements of this. And just going back to that same 168 00:09:50,893 --> 00:09:53,653 Speaker 3: with my drama, that's I found him when he was sixteen. 169 00:09:53,693 --> 00:09:56,093 Speaker 3: He was I was an itinerant teacher at high school 170 00:09:56,093 --> 00:09:57,933 Speaker 3: and he was in a banded school and that was 171 00:09:57,933 --> 00:10:01,333 Speaker 3: his style, and so I put him through the Ringer, 172 00:10:01,613 --> 00:10:06,573 Speaker 3: you know, like playing folk and playing soul music and 173 00:10:06,613 --> 00:10:10,533 Speaker 3: then eighties synth pop, and then to finally just go 174 00:10:10,613 --> 00:10:14,973 Speaker 3: back to what he loved. You could feel his love 175 00:10:15,013 --> 00:10:19,333 Speaker 3: for drumming again, you know. So yeah, it was definitely 176 00:10:19,413 --> 00:10:20,453 Speaker 3: a kind of homecoming. 177 00:10:20,653 --> 00:10:22,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, hip Hop's next day. 178 00:10:22,533 --> 00:10:27,493 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is that I'm not too fair. I'm you know, 179 00:10:27,573 --> 00:10:31,013 Speaker 3: I'm not I might be rapping, but I've actually just 180 00:10:31,053 --> 00:10:33,373 Speaker 3: put a call out to all my friends in the 181 00:10:33,413 --> 00:10:37,293 Speaker 3: industry and people that I admire and asked if they 182 00:10:37,373 --> 00:10:40,173 Speaker 3: want to be part of it, and they all said yes, 183 00:10:40,253 --> 00:10:43,013 Speaker 3: and we go into the studio in November. So we 184 00:10:43,093 --> 00:10:45,373 Speaker 3: finished this tour at the end of this month. I 185 00:10:45,453 --> 00:10:47,173 Speaker 3: got a few things on next month and then we 186 00:10:47,213 --> 00:10:50,293 Speaker 3: go straight and so haven't got a lot of time 187 00:10:50,373 --> 00:10:53,973 Speaker 3: for the turnaround. But it's always the case though. Yeah, 188 00:10:54,013 --> 00:10:57,773 Speaker 3: but it's all good because we're actually writing in the studio. 189 00:10:57,853 --> 00:11:00,533 Speaker 3: So each of the artists has a day yeah studio, 190 00:11:01,013 --> 00:11:04,093 Speaker 3: and I've given them a playlist and asked what style 191 00:11:04,093 --> 00:11:07,053 Speaker 3: are you leaning towards or well then a that I'll 192 00:11:07,293 --> 00:11:09,093 Speaker 3: like a soundscape that I'm looking for. 193 00:11:08,933 --> 00:11:12,133 Speaker 2: What artists would be most represented on the playlist. 194 00:11:14,613 --> 00:11:20,373 Speaker 3: I've got actually got a female EMC from Wellington mar 195 00:11:20,653 --> 00:11:23,693 Speaker 3: Is on it and she she's the one who pointed 196 00:11:23,733 --> 00:11:28,653 Speaker 3: out that it's pretty much Polynesian bar Tom Scott, So yeah, cool, 197 00:11:28,653 --> 00:11:31,173 Speaker 3: I'm just like, oh far, I don't even think about it. Yeah, 198 00:11:31,173 --> 00:11:33,973 Speaker 3: it was just my favorite home bro. Yeah yeah, yeah. 199 00:11:34,013 --> 00:11:39,133 Speaker 3: So I'm still yet to come up with the overall 200 00:11:39,253 --> 00:11:43,733 Speaker 3: theme for everyone to talk about. But yeah, it's a 201 00:11:43,773 --> 00:11:47,293 Speaker 3: hard one because I probably want to talk about politics 202 00:11:47,413 --> 00:11:50,173 Speaker 3: or something to do with indigenous things, but I've already 203 00:11:50,213 --> 00:11:52,173 Speaker 3: done that in the past album. So I'm like, what's 204 00:11:52,213 --> 00:11:54,853 Speaker 3: another spin on that? So everyone just said just take 205 00:11:54,853 --> 00:11:57,773 Speaker 3: your time and fi grid out and whatever it is, 206 00:11:57,813 --> 00:11:59,493 Speaker 3: they'll smash it doesn't what it is. 207 00:11:59,733 --> 00:12:02,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny. I was reflecting on the ten ten 208 00:12:02,213 --> 00:12:04,613 Speaker 2: ten project the other day and in the ways that 209 00:12:06,173 --> 00:12:08,213 Speaker 2: like it forces you in some way. I mean, it 210 00:12:08,213 --> 00:12:10,253 Speaker 2: doesn't forces you to release music, right, If you're going 211 00:12:10,293 --> 00:12:13,093 Speaker 2: to do ten albums, teen genres, ten years, then you're 212 00:12:13,133 --> 00:12:17,133 Speaker 2: forced to constantly be creating. And are you familiar with 213 00:12:17,173 --> 00:12:21,613 Speaker 2: this the kind of principle around creativity that the best 214 00:12:21,613 --> 00:12:24,133 Speaker 2: way to be creative is to put constraints on things. 215 00:12:24,413 --> 00:12:26,573 Speaker 3: Oh one hundred percent, do you reckon one hundred percent. 216 00:12:26,613 --> 00:12:29,773 Speaker 3: I feel like if I didn't have that, I don't 217 00:12:29,813 --> 00:12:31,613 Speaker 3: even know if i'd have an album out now. I'm 218 00:12:31,653 --> 00:12:34,413 Speaker 3: one of those ones that just needs a deadline, And 219 00:12:35,293 --> 00:12:37,213 Speaker 3: people say, do you feel like the quality is going 220 00:12:37,253 --> 00:12:39,853 Speaker 3: to dip? That you're pushing up so much content? And 221 00:12:39,933 --> 00:12:43,293 Speaker 3: I'm feeling like, if I had five years to write 222 00:12:43,293 --> 00:12:45,773 Speaker 3: an album, I'd probably still write it the two weeks 223 00:12:45,853 --> 00:12:49,053 Speaker 3: leading into you know, so it doesn't really matter. So 224 00:12:51,253 --> 00:12:53,693 Speaker 3: but that's always my thing is I need to be 225 00:12:54,133 --> 00:12:56,813 Speaker 3: proud of what I'm putting out, and and there was 226 00:12:56,853 --> 00:12:58,453 Speaker 3: one thing right at the beginning, I don't want to 227 00:12:58,453 --> 00:13:00,013 Speaker 3: just put it out for the hell of putting it out. 228 00:13:00,053 --> 00:13:02,493 Speaker 3: I want to do my best with the time that 229 00:13:02,573 --> 00:13:02,853 Speaker 3: I have. 230 00:13:04,013 --> 00:13:07,253 Speaker 2: One last question, where do you get your client? Because 231 00:13:07,293 --> 00:13:11,133 Speaker 2: you have such amazing distinct style, and like seeing you 232 00:13:11,213 --> 00:13:13,493 Speaker 2: in the desert as well, I was like, damn, Troy's 233 00:13:13,493 --> 00:13:16,653 Speaker 2: looking amazing. But I'm not convinced that that's necessarily the coolest, 234 00:13:17,173 --> 00:13:20,133 Speaker 2: like as in cold, the coldest cut of clothes to 235 00:13:20,173 --> 00:13:22,293 Speaker 2: be wearing when it's forty degrees. Where do you get 236 00:13:22,333 --> 00:13:22,933 Speaker 2: your clothes? 237 00:13:23,293 --> 00:13:27,413 Speaker 3: These particular ponchos that I've been wearing from a company 238 00:13:27,453 --> 00:13:30,733 Speaker 3: in Totoo called Tony Fayaja. I think it's a moldy 239 00:13:30,853 --> 00:13:34,773 Speaker 3: feller who married woman from chileer that's yeah, right, I 240 00:13:34,853 --> 00:13:37,933 Speaker 3: come from. But I've also got a designer who I 241 00:13:38,013 --> 00:13:40,613 Speaker 3: work with on a movie toke like five years ago, 242 00:13:41,493 --> 00:13:45,253 Speaker 3: Lizzie Turner, whose husband Jared is an actor, an amazing 243 00:13:45,293 --> 00:13:49,053 Speaker 3: actor if you've seen a couple of years ago. She 244 00:13:49,133 --> 00:13:53,373 Speaker 3: made me this bright, silky green shirt green suit, sorry 245 00:13:53,453 --> 00:13:57,333 Speaker 3: for my eighty synth pop last year. She made that jacket, 246 00:13:57,413 --> 00:13:59,573 Speaker 3: the cowboy looking jacket that I was wearing in the desert. 247 00:13:59,653 --> 00:14:05,653 Speaker 3: So I basically just wear what I'm told. I also 248 00:14:05,733 --> 00:14:08,733 Speaker 3: have Hills Hats from Willington, who's been making me hats 249 00:14:08,733 --> 00:14:11,493 Speaker 3: for the last five years. This hat actually the material 250 00:14:11,573 --> 00:14:14,973 Speaker 3: for this hats from eighteen eighty. Whoa, so it's quite 251 00:14:15,013 --> 00:14:18,373 Speaker 3: an old hat.
