ZULA

ZULA

ZULA has been played on NTS in shows including Trevor Jackson , featured first on 12 April 2022. Songs played include Kiss Down, Pull Over.

Zula plays moderately deconstructed, rhythmic songs, with an emphasis on repetitive, interlocking figures and melodies in accessible, direct pop forms. Their ongoing project is concerned with the enrichment of experience through the medium of pop - in the sense that a song, working as a moment, can be stretched and fattened to accommodate not only narrative and structure, but atmosphere, suspension, and a sense of slipping from linear time. Zula is interested in participating in the critical flows and patterns of taste, but they are more concerned with channeling unconscious and subconscious energies, both collective and personal. They are most directly inspired by the Beatles, Neil Young, and more repetitive and explicitly rhythmic music ranging from the hypnotic sparsity of krautrock to the more funky sensibilities of acid house and Manchester indie dance. Chief songwriters Henry and Nate Terepka (cousins) bring a personal approach lyrically that aspires to honest dealings with value, time, patterns of behavior, decay, and their individual experiences of living and working in and around New York. Zula's sound is captured on their debut EP, Crescent Intake Session, which was recorded live with minimal overdubbing and released April 5 2011.
