We all have a message, well, we all feel we have a message. But few have a message as clear and succinct as todays guest.

With an academic life dedicated to the respect and celebration of the earth, it is of no wonder, really that that is exactly what the music would be about.

But not just a celebration but also more engaging in the wonder of it all. A wonder they want to share with children. To enage the listener in the wonder of whats right in front of us.

The music is epic in some regard as it menaders through verses of information and awareness but always keeping its musical feet planted (excuse the pun) firmly in the pot of fun and humour. It is music for us to clap along to, sing along to, and get busy with and share with our families as we take time to admire all the things the world has already given us.

Todays is a bit of a treat for me as I have been watching the career of Flor Bromley from a far and have grown to deeply appreciate her approach to all she does.

It’s not just for the music and the seemingly effortless meandering she does through genre’s and ideas, both big and small, but really for the pride in which she does it.

She has such a deep love for not so much her culture and upbringing but in herself which comes out ever so strongly in her work.

Flor herself is as fascinating as her music and today we get to find out why.

Every once and a while a genre finds itself being spun on its head. It’s a natural progression of all things, as tastes, sensibilities, understandings, and the world in general changes and grows. As it grows so too does its thirst for a voice that represents the now.

Enter todays guests. An act that really reminds us all of the power children have and the respect their content deserves.

Known for not only there extraordinary craft, beautiful musical moments, messaging and execution, they possess an incredible work ethic and drive to create things that are simply put, beautiful for our children,

Their music is anything but common place and their tireless pursuit in providing what they feel is a platform our children deserve, is shown in their unprecedented popularity, respect and celebration.

And to think it all came from the one family, the one lounge room, the result of a singular parenting style.

So sit back and listen to Byll and Beth of Teeny Tiny Stevies on Benny Asking People questions.

When we think of Children’s music we often fall into the assumption of the 2-3 minute jingle-esque music and movement variety. It conjures an image of dancing, shouting, stage shows of colour and fanfare.

However as the world begins to expand it’s understanding and celebration of the complexities of the child, we starting to realise that the musical tastes and needs of children are just as complex, if not more, than that of the average adult.

Entre Eli. Eli first created his music for children through the Kinderling Kids Radio podcast, Bedtime explorers, where he merged his love of field recordings, Soundscapes and electronic music into a beautiful body of work to help children dream, and mo0re importantly, day dream.

In this interview we talk the complexities of relaxation music and just how something so seemingly simple can contain the complexities and vast as the universe it encourages us to explore.
