Miki Haman

The debut album of Producer, Violinist and composer MIKI Kekenj is a large-scale concept album between the epic orchestral sounds, hip-hop Beats and Rap featuring CURSE and the WDR radio orchestra.

I’m certain that I’m not the only pianist who has dreamt of recording at the historic Van Gelder Studio in Englewood Cliffs, NJ.

If ever there were a 3D figure created for Poser with personality, it’d be Miki 3. Rigged with Poser 8’s powerful new multiple capsule and sphere technology, Miki 3 includes features such as Advanced Body Control and Deformation Systems, a complete collection of Full Body Morphs, Joint Controlled Morphs, photorealistic skin textures, hair sets, clothing and life-like facial expression and phoneme morphs. Miki 3 is compatible with both the Poser Face Room for ultimate editability and the Talk Designer for ease of animation, making her the most advanced, most versatile and spunkiest Poser character we’ve ever offered.

Lineup-wise, the Miki Berenyi Trio is just a pared-down version of the last, touring edition of Piroshka, a group that included Berenyi, her partner KJ "Moose" McKillop, and bassist Oliver Cherer (who stepped in when original Piroshka bassist Mick Conroy broke his arm during the band's tour for its second album). However, the approach this group has taken on Tripla is dramatically different from Piroshka's, and it's more than appropriate that they've given themselves a new moniker. While Piroshka seemed intentionally designed to blur Berenyi's role into that of an equal contributor to a four-piece rock band whose sound style was quite distinct from that of Lush's poppy shoegaze, the MB3 both front-faces the singer/guitarist and explicitly calls back to the dreampop she made in the ‘90s.

A new chapter, a new-line-up, a newly minted sound; Miki Berenyi Trio's debut album Tripla is a landmark record for its three creators: Miki Berenyi, KJ 'Moose' McKillop and Oliver Cherer. The album's richly layered, imaginative and uniquely slanted strain of dream pop is an often euphoric and sometimes melancholic mix of guitars and electronica, fronted by Miki's instantly recognisable vocal, overlaid with an often profound and sometimes abrasive or yearning view of the world. Miki Berenyi Trio, or MB3 for short, is named after its lead singer - a direct way to convey the presence of the former singer/co-guitarist of Lush, and one of the most instantly recognisable faces of the '90s - but the songwriting is entirely a three-way collaboration, as the album title describes: acknowledging the mother tongue of Miki's father, Tripla is Hungarian for 'triple'.
