On the run! Whoah-oh-oh, Whoah-oh-oh Whoah-oh-oh On the run! Whoah-oh-oh, Whoah-oh-oh Whoah-oh-oh On the run!

Tokyo - Kat featuring Mark Haze (MUSIC VIDEO)

Multi-instrumentalist, looper and international live musician Kat has teamed up again with seasoned Singer-Songwriter Mark Haze for an energetic upbeat EDM-fused Pop Rock homage to Kat’s favourite city Tokyo. Stream 'Tokyo' available on all platforms https://linktr.ee/kat_theperformer_music Kat shares that "This is my homage to my favourite city on earth. Tokyo has the most unique energy about it compared to anywhere else I have been. Everything I speak of in the song is something I experienced and loved about the city, from the Godzilla hotel, Sakura drinks, and the 8-bite bar. What I love and relate to most is the passion and care that the local people have for their art, whatever that might be. From a world class musician to a McDonald’s cooker, whatever they are making they do it with the utmost care and precision, and I find that so amazing! I want to pay respect and honour the people and city that inspired me in so many ways, from their anime, music, and their lifestyle. The people of Japan inspire me with their kindness and consideration for others, which is something I have rarely encountered like this anywhere else. I hope the energy of this song can reflect the feeling of being in Tokyo. We made the song upbeat with an EDM feel to reflect the fast-paced city, and we added specific effects to reflect the anime and the culture of the city. This song is my love letter to Tokyo.” Mark Haze (Featured Artist & Producer) shares that “I am proudly part of the team that broke Kat onto the scene. She had some great success with the release of her previous singles, and the world got to see and hear what she is all about. She is unique, there is no doubt. I love the creativity she brings to the table, which allows me as a producer to really be free and experiment with various styles, to cross over and blur the lines when it comes to genre, and to really think outside of the box. ‘Tokyo’ is no different. She came to me with a whole collection of newly written songs, most of which were just the bare bones of the tracks. As usual, she knew exactly where she wants the style of the song to go, which is very mature and extremely helpful to a producer. She also leaves certain areas open to interpretation for me to collaborate and add something else that she hadn’t necessarily thought of. When I first heard ‘Tokyo’, the chorus immediately jumped out at me, but the best part was the listing of references to her favourite place throughout the verses was what hooked me in. I referenced various Japanese cultural sounds and styles and slipped them into track, from Anime, traditional, martial arts movies, to sound effects. Kat asked if I would collaborate with her on the track as an artist, like before on some previous tracks, so I had to find a way to place my own style into hers, but not distract from what was happening. I basically channelled all the Japanese-influenced movies and TV shows I watched as a kid, like Transformers, Power Rangers, Volcron, and Pokèmon, and created a ‘show down / fight scene’ theme. She loved it! As for the rest of the song, I basically tried to replicate her genuine love and excitement for the city of Tokyo and attempt to transfer those feelings to everyone else. I think this new single is going to propel her to a new level in the industry and really cement her place as an entertainer and song-writer.” #Kat #Tokyo #EDM #Pop #Rock Composed by Kat Performed by Kat and Mark Haze Produced, Mixed & Mastered by Mark Haze Directed by Marnus Tredoux Magic Hour Films Woowi Digital Records Photography by Bjorn Groenewald Promoted by Devographic Music Agency Kat Bio: All Links https://linktr.ee/kat_theperformer_music Facebook https://www.facebook.com/KatPowerHK Instagram https://instagram.com/kat_theperformer_music YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@SkinnyJeabs/videos Mark Haze Bio: All Links https://linktr.ee/realmarkhaze Facebook https://www.facebook.com/RealMarkHaze Instagram https://instagram.com/RealMarkHaze YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/MarkHaze

Mark Haze - Don't Say Goodbye (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)

Seasoned South African Rock Singer-Songwriter Mark Haze is back with a grandiose Rock Opus called ‘Don’t Say Goodbye’. This blistering arena-style Rock Anthem showcases Mark’s wide vocal range and signature energy Rock ‘n Roll, guaranteed to have listeners and audiences singing along in full voice and on their feet! On writing ‘Don’t Say Goodbye’, Mark shares that “The riff is one of the first I ever wrote. It was originally intended to be for my first proper band ‘12th Avenue’ but got shelved. When I started writing new music, I picked the riff up again, at the same time a friend whose father passed away contacted me to share how much this song meant to him. The song was written to encourage strength in character, to always fight on in the face of adversity, and to always push to do better, regardless of what life throws at you. Today this theme is more relevant than ever. Lyrically I also wrote this song from me, to me, to encourage myself to always stand steadfast, keep everything together, and fight on no matter what – to always push on and do better! As I also produced the track, I had to be extra stringent on myself, between playing the roles of artist and producer, to push myself to keep doing better and fight on for the desired result.” LYRICS: This is not the end This is not the last The chapter does not close This is not Will not Cannot Shall not be the end Just live for this moment in time The sky will not close on us tonight The sun will not set The sky will not fall It's hard to change the world I just cannot focus at all And all I can see is you walking away from me Don't Say Goodbye Take my hand, it's time to fly Let's leave the world behind And float into the sky Don't Say Goodbye Wipe the tear from your eye Don't leave me behind This is not the end This is not the last The chapter does not close This is not Will not Cannot Shall not be the end Just live for this moment in time I love you and all I can see is you walking away Don't Say Goodbye Take my hand, it's time to fly Let's leave the world behind And float into the sky Don't Say Goodbye Wipe the tear from your eye Don't leave me behind Don't Say Goodbye ONLINE: All Links https://linktr.ee/realmarkhaze Website http://www.markhaze.com/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/RealMarkHaze Instagram https://instagram.com/RealMarkHaze Music Video Created by Marnus Tredoux Written, Performed, Arranged & Produced by Mark Haze Recorded at Havoc Studios South Africa Published by Active Music Promoted by Devographic Music Agency #MarkHaze #DontSayGoodbye #RockOpus #ArenaRock #Singer #Songwriter #Rocker #Guitarist #Rock #Devographic Copyright All Rights Reserved Mark Haze 2022

Love should be simple, but it often isn’t and I feel like ILYSB captures those feelings. Love hurting so good when you want someone so bad. I love the play on words. I identify with it and I think most people do as well. It’s a beautiful description of something we all want and need.” Mark LYRICS: Ain't never felt this way Can't get enough so stay with me It's not like we got big plans Let's drive around town holding hands And you need to know You're the only one, alright alright And you need to know That you keep me up all night, all night Oh, my heart hurts so good I love you, babe, so bad, so bad Oh, oh my heart hurts so good I love you, babe, so bad, so bad Mad cool in all my clothes Mad warm when you get close to me Slow dance these summer nights Our disco ball's my kitchen light And you need to know That nobody could take your place, your place And you need to know That I'm hella obsessed with your face, your face Oh, my heart hurts so good I love you, babe, so bad, so bad Oh, oh my heart hurts so good I love you, babe, so bad, so bad Oh, oh my heart hurts so good I love you, babe, so bad, so bad, oh And you need to know You're the only one alright, alright And you need to know That you keep me up all night, all night Oh, my heart hurts so good I love you, babe, so bad, so bad Oh, oh my heart hurts so good I love you, babe, so bad, so bad, oh So bad, oh Oh, my heart hurts Oh, my heart hurts Oh, my heart hurts So bad, oh
