Ramen Break, the last single from the upcoming Tinyhawk & Bizzarro album flirts with the world’s most sampled drum beat

Tinyhawk & Bizzarro release their long-awaited second album Neko-A-Sekai on October 3rd. The third and final single from the album is called Ramen Break and it was released today, August 15th.

The upcoming single is one of Jenni Kinnunen’s earliest compositions. She has this to say about its creation process:

- The song came into being over ten years ago during a very strange and mystical Turku-Stockholm-Tampere adventure. We were driving to Tampere, and I started to hear a clear structure of a song. There was a guitar at the place where we were staying, and I rushed to write the tune down on a staff I scawled on a grid paper. And now, years later, when we were arranging the song, I got this idea of ”playing the Amen Break of your own life”. Our producer Tuukka Tervo hauled the structure over one more time, and thus the song was ready to be played. Our guitarist Markus Väisänen suggested adding the letter R in front, connecting it to all things Japanese, which is our trademark, and also to the platform games we remember from our childhood.

The drummer Jaakko Pöyhönen has this to say about Ramen Break single:

- This firework of a tune was one of the easiest to knock into shape! Its name and mood toy with the world’s most sampled drum beat, which is from the song Amen Brother by The Winstons. This tune is very much written solely by Jenni, all the way to the drums. And what a joy this was to make! The tune has all kinds of surprises in addition to the main theme and its mood. And when played live, it is already living its own life.
