Gospels artists commonly known as Star Eagle’s Musical Band are planning to set up world class recording studio for both audios and videos in South Sudan.
Deneya Denis told Radio Easter in Yei that south Sudan music has not been doing much in the international market.
He adds that only few South Sudanese musicians receive international awards and that setting up the world class studio will enable South Sudan music to get to international level.
“As Star Eagles in our plan, our next thing that we want to do is to set up a world class studio for both audios and videos. This is what we want to do so that the musicians here will have another test of production and class. South Sudan music has not been doing so well in the international market that is why you see in the most international awards South Sudanese are not featuring, but we are working hard to ensure that South Sudan is represented outside our boundaries”, promises the gospel singer.
Denis points out a challenge of South Sudanese artists concentrating in singing without talents.
He advises his colleagues to specialize in song writing and sell them to the musicians.
Denis says music is a process that needs time for one to produce an attractive song that catches the attention of the audience.
“The problem I have seen with us is that, many people think they can be musicians yet we have others who can specialize in songs writing. For example if you Denis is a good singer and you are good in writing song, you can specialize and say I want to be a song writer. We have these people everywhere in other countries. So we should not think that you can be great by writing a song and going to the studio. There are people who have written good songs but the way they bring it out is not musically professional. Music is a process like cooking food. You need to make sure that you put all the species and ingredients to be testy”, he reveals.
Star Eagles is Christian music band formed in 2001 by Deneya Denis and Tony Manas to spread the word of God and impact lives of others through music.
