AWSUM Celebrity Interview

Singer-songwriter Matthew Mole made chart history as the first South African artist to enter the iTunes SA charts at #1 on the first day of releasing his debut album ‘The Home We Built’. This talented and unassuming multi-SAMA and MK awards nominee chatted to AWSUM News about his music, life and future aspirations.

Q Just about the whole of South Africa heard the iTunes news when ‘The Home We Built’ was released. Did you expect this success? How did it feel to be an overnight sensation?

A I was blown away completely. I really didn’t expect that kind of thing to happen. I was just next-level excited to have an album on iTunes. It’s super encouraging to have such great support!

Q Who are your music icons?

A I have so many – ranging from the people everyone’s heard of like Mumford & Sons, to people like Gold Panda. I’ve always admired Jónsi, a band from Iceland. They just go beyond predictable songwriting when it comes to instrumentation. So musically, that has been one of my biggest influences.

Q What inspires you creatively and personally? Who are ‘your people’?

A I’m not the best at speaking, but through music it’s natural. It takes up a lot of my time, it drives me; it makes me who I am. My songs are inspired by my family, the people that I love. They are a firm base of support and grounding.

My Dad told me about a dream that he had where I was running a race.

His job was to help me shoot off from the starting blocks. We all have an enormous amount of potential to look to something far bigger than ourselves to give us what it is that we need to walk into that potential and run with it.

Q What was your journey to become a professional musician? Have you been a musician since childhood?

A I never thought I’d become a full-time musician, but my father taught me how to play the guitar and started me off playing covers. It all comes from a genuine love of songwriting, rather than any serious career choice. I started writing my own songs at the end of high school — I had no idea what I was doing, I was just writing the worst songs in the world! I just loved the idea, so I wrote as much as I could.

AWSUM NEWS NOVEMBER 2017

Q What was the highlight(s) of your career this far?

A The first time I played at Splashy Fen, a South African festival in the Drakensberg, always stands out. It was the first time I had really felt such an amazing atmosphere with the interaction between the audience and myself. It was such an encouraging show for me. Also, I was in Hollywood for Musexpo in 2014. I was walking along some random street. Out of nowhere, Snoop Dogg just pops out of some apartment. It was so chilled, but my mind couldn’t handle it. It was hilarious. Snoop Dogg. That’s not even close to normal for a South African like me.

Q What role does social media play in your career?

A I think it’s huge! It’s an amazing tool that hasn’t always been there. It’s a massive step forward for all kinds of businesses. It’s really awesome to get feedback from and interaction with fans and followers, and at the same time I hope it is awesome for them.

Q What are some of your favorite places to play in South Africa? Over the years, what have been your favorite events to play?

A Kirstenbosch Gardens is always an amazing show. I love Durban audiences.

Pretoria is literally the place that I have played some of my favourite shows of all time!

Q You are known for playing quite an array of instruments, some of them rather quirky, like the ukulele and banjo, as well as piano, organ, guitars, drums and a wide variety of percussive instruments. How did you become so musically versatile?

A My Dad taught me how to play the guitar, he’s super good. From there I just wanted to try so many other instruments. So when I came across one, I just messed around and learned what I could.

Q What message do you have for our readers (high school kids) about leading a successful life and achieving their dreams?

A Obviously you need inspiration and influences. But don’t be too influenced.

You need some of your own visions and ideas, so that you can feed them with your influences. Persistence is super important. Meeting lots of people too.

The beautifulseeded apple The protea is our national flower and the pomegranate is the national fruit in Xian in China.

I believe that many scholars debate whether the apple in the Garden of Eden was in fact a pomegranate!

The pomegranate is native from Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and was cultivated and naturalised over the whole Mediterranean region since ancient times. I love this Biblical fruit; I love every one of the little ruby jewels contained under its skin. These seeds (called arils) are what we eat either raw or processed into pomegranate juice. It is said that pomegranates are among the healthiest fruits on earth. They are said to contain a range of beneficial plant compounds, unrivalled by other foods. Studies have shown that they have incredible benefits for your body, and may lower the risk of all sorts of diseases.

An average pomegranate yields 3/4 cup seeds and 1/2 cup of juice. When you go shopping for pomegranates make sure that you choose them with a thin, yet tough skin unbroken skin. They should have a deep red colour and be heavy for their size and a crown that is free of mould.

Pomegranates will stay fresh for about two weeks when you store them in a cool, dry place; make sure that this is out of direct sunlight.

If you keep them in the refrigerator, they can be stored for up to two months. Although it is recommended that you don’t freeze the fruit whole, the seeds can be frozen.

They are in the shops now, so go and get some.

Aristea-leierspan

#genoegisgenoeg

Die Aristea-leierspan het op Donderdag, 2 November op ‘n strategiese beplanning na Abrahamskraal in die Karoo vertrek. Die naweek het lang werksure vereis om 2018 seepglad te beplan, prosedures te hersien en te verbeter, en baie gesprekke te voer in die belang van ons skool en kinders. Die asemrowende landskap van die plaas het bygedra tot lang ente se stap/ draf en ons was geseën met ‘n Karoo-donderstorm – selfs onderwysers kon nie die versoeking weerstaan om in die reën te dans nie. Groot genot is geput uit die spanbou-aktiwiteite van twee-twee kosmaak en heerlike disse is opgelewer. Dit was beslis ‘n hoogtepunt vir die leierspan van 2018.

Laerskool Aristea het deelgeneem aan die Swart Maandag in simpatie met plaasmoorde sowel as die onskuldige moorde op medeleeringe op die Kaapse vlakte deur bendegeweld.

Parkkonsert Die musiekakademie het hulle kamerkonsert verskuif na die pragtige tuine by Jack Muller Park in Bellville en sommer daarna ‘n héérlike piekniek vir gesinne gehou!

Baie dankie aan Leonre van der Walt vir haar reëlings om dit moontlik te maak.

Hulle het self ook aartappels op die lande uitgegrawe wat hulle kon huis toe neem. Dié besoek was werklik ‘n belewenis en hulle is op die hande gedra deur die mense op die plaas.

Prestasies Ons het vanjaar leerders gehad wat presteer het in krieket, Voortrekkers, rugby, hip-hop-danse (tuis en oorsee), bofbal en gimnastiek.

Hatties have shone on the basketball court in 2017

Ballet concert

A wonderful basketball season has come to an end for 2017. The players were dedicated and made the most of the season. The year culminated in a ‘Build-a-burger braai’, which was well supported and great fun. Coaches commended the boys on their behaviour and sportsmanship throughout the season. It was a unanimous response that the boys were a pleasure to work with.

We look forward to 2018 and all the exciting challenges that will accompany it!

De Kuilen Primary School recently collaborated with De Kuilen High School to perform a dance production titled, Checkmate. The theme of the concert revolved around a game of chess. The concept of the production was that the chess pieces become animated and acted out human emotions Grade 3 learners portrayed characters such as chess players, kings, queens pawns, bishops and knights, as well as life within the castle walls. Musical items such as a flute solo and singing of Broadway lullabies also contributed to the success of the show.

As each class danced their items, which included ballet, contemporary dance and hip hop, the tension of the concert built up until the final battle between the kings and the queens.

“It was a very successful show and all participants as well as the audience enjoyed it immensely,” says Mrs Megan De Goede (ballet teacher)
