Artist History
BTSavageGarden: The Savage Garden of MP3.com!!It was a duo... now there's only singer/songwriter Darren Melo presenting intelligent lyrics, gloriously accessible melodies and crafty production illustrating music for the masses in their most illuminated form. Of course he didn't sell 11 million CDs, yet, but BTSavageGarden has conjured a definition of pop music with the most positive connotations. The music of Savage Garden was recorded in San Francisco and New York and was produced by the Grammy-winning, Walter Afanasieff (Ricky Martin, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Michael Bolton)....The music of BTSavageGarden was recorded in Fort Lauderdale and Wilton Manors and was produced by Darren Melo who never won a grammy in his life and never produced Ricky Martin, Celine Dion, Michael Bolton...So, if there is some little quality difference it is because there is only 1 man behind the product and not an "army" of grammy-winning guys.But also Darren, like Hayes, practically forced himself into emotional upheaval by transplanting from his home in Europe and moving to Fort Lauderdale in 1997, to feed off of the city's ironic mix of intoxicating adventure countered by its sometimes consuming loneliness."I placed myself in very adverse conditions because I was intent on making a record that could be a soundtrack not just to my life, but to everybody's lives," Darren says. "I experienced very real things, where I had to make new friends, to miss my family, to carry six bags of groceries from the corner market to my apartment without a car or a trolley just the normal day-to-day struggle of being in a new place."And while there are themes of loss and emptiness, Darren says that lyrically, the project consistently focuses on looking past such despair. "This is hopeful sadness. I don't wallow in self pity. Elation and pain are experiences that make you realize you're alive. Thank God you feel them; otherwise you'd be numb. That would be the worst thing," he says. |
