KNiKi''s BIO
KNiKi''s debut album titled Stained is aggressive yet sensual, powerful, dark, uplifting and real. Utilisation of the internet has been the primary vehicle for the promotion of her music. An extensive internet network has been developed with KNiKi achieving considerable success in many competitions in a relatively short period of time (see attached Achievement Sheet). As a direct result of this promotion music industry personal in both the UK and US have indicated an interest in KNiKi''s music resulting in two publishing offers from the US, current promotion by Medicine Music in the UK and radio airplay in Costa Rica, Argentina, USA and Australia. A recent (April 2004) review by Kevin Matthews from FUFKIN Music describes KNiKi''s music as follows:
KNiKi''s Stained (Self-released) Aussie siren promises much with her "come hither" sleeve imagery and to her credit, this compilation of funk-infused, soulful pop numbers is able to stand on its own merits. Smoldering with the vocal passion of a young Eartha Kitt, Kniki wraps her not inconsiderable larynx around strong material like the feisty "Ain''t No Cruise," strident "Give Me Wings" and pleasing "Temptation." More than meets the eye for sure. https://www.tradebit.com
The following is a review (June 2003) from Tim Marcoe of Entronics LLC in the US:
"With generous portions of mainstream rock, blues and a small pinch of dance. KNiKi has the perfect mix to spice up the bland din that our ears have been bombarded with. KNiKi''s style and voice gives her music life along with her hard hitting lyrics and great delivery. There is a sort of raw expressive angst that KNiKi has obviously perfected to a fine art. When you listen to KNiKi''s music the first thing you notice is her fabulous voice that grabs you and holds your attention. The next thing that you notice is her lyrics that paint vivid mental images. Her new CD, Stained starts strong and then goes up from there. With songs like GIVE ME WINGS, that really shows off her edgy and expressive voice and AIN''T NO CRUSE, which is an "in your face" look at a relationship that has gone sour. Believe me, if you''re not tapping your feet and snapping your fingers by the end of this CD then check you pulse because you''re dead. This CD could get accountants and computer programmers to get up and dance".
The following evaluation was carried out by Phil Gibbs (Phil Gibbs Promotes) at the request of Chick Holland (Lahaina Recording Studios) in the United Kingdom:
"KNiKi Saleeba A+
Very good, definite A list material, musical influences from Anastasia through to Sheryl Crow. This would be a pleasure to be involved with".
Currently KNiKi is involved in collaboration projects with musicians in the US and Europe utilising her talents in the areas of songwriting and vocals. KNiKi supports and is supported by the Australian Songwriters Association (ASA) and you can catch her performing at the ASA''s Wax Lyrical nights in various venues around the city of Perth.
KNiKi''s is currently working on her next album which will be due for release at the end of 2004.
KNiKi''s music offers a variety not often achieved by original artists however her on stage energy is a definite strength and needs to be experienced to fully appreciate the potential of KNiKi''s music. Following are review KNiKi has received from one of her peers:
"I''m sure it won''t be long before we see you at the top. I listened to Emulate My Love and a few others on your profile, although I wander around in a different genre of songwriting I have always been impressed with those that can grasp the immediate and make todays sound their own, you are doing just that, keep up the good work". ken
