Beatenberg is a fresh new face in pop music from South Africa. Or rather, three faces, handsome and young and intelligent. The faces are of Matthew Field, who also has a beautiful voice and plays the guitar, Ross Dorkin, who has beautiful hands that play the bass, and Robin Brink, who has a beautiful life-force and plays the drums like a nutcase. \r Despite being in love with and schooled in serious music like Beethoven, Debussy and John Coltrane, (Ross and Matthew studied music together at the University of Cape Town) Beatenberg is adamant that they are heard as pop music, which they believe is actually quite serious too. \r Songwriter Matthew says: It’s about emotions, images and fleeting senses of things: the mad stuff that everyone feels and almost understands.
