âKo te reo M?ori, he matapihi ki te ao M?oriâ goes the M?ori whakatauki(proverb) that has guided Aotearoa singer/songwriter Marlon Williamsâ(K?iTahu, Ng?i Tai) fourth solo album, Te Whare T?wekaweka. Translated, it means âThe M?ori language is a window to the M?ori worldâ and expressesMarlonâs motivation behind his first te reo M?ori album. âThrough the process of constructing these songs,â Marlon says, âIâve found a means of expressing my joys, sorrows and humour in a way that feels both distinctly newyet also connects me to my t?puna [ancestors] and my whenua [land, home].
âConnection lies at the heart of Te Whare T?wekaweka, the albumâs five-year process reconnecting Marlon to family, friends and his home town of Lyttelton after a globe-trotting decade establishing his career. The album signifies another step in Marlonâs journey with his ancestral tongue, his ability in the language developing as the songs accumulated in the hours spent with close friend and co-writer, rapper KOMMI.
The language unlocked both a newfound lyrical honesty and a grand sonic vision. Supported by long-time touring band The Yarra Benders, co-producer Mark Perkins (Te Wh?nau-?-Apanui), the He Waka K?tuia singers and featuring a collaboration with pop star Lorde, the album traverses Marlonâs familiar folk-country-bluegrass territory, while continuing his exploration of poppier waters and the inherent rhythms of M?ori music. The result is a collection at once contemporary and timeless.
