Ustvarjalna listina TimTim.Live
Zakaj ta projekt obstaja, kaj Konpa pomeni tukaj in kako lahko vsakdo, ki mu pomaga, da ga prenese naprej – družina, sodelavci ali prihodnja ekipa – sprejema odločitve v istem duhu, v katerem se je začel.
Zakaj to obstaja?
TimTim.Live exists to create joyful Konpa music that connects people, celebrates Haiti, and inspires curiosity about the world.
Through songs, stories, and cultural experiences, this is a living musical journey — not a finished catalog. It's meant to keep growing: new songs, new countries, new collaborators, for as long as anyone wants to carry it forward.
Kaj pomeni Konpa tukaj?
Konpa was created in Haiti in 1955 by saxophonist Nemours Jean-Baptiste, built for one purpose: to get a room full of people dancing together, no matter what else is going on outside.
In this project, Konpa is never just a genre label. It's the Haitian half of a Haitian-American story — Caribbean roots, colored by African guitar and reggae, shaped by decades of American life. Every song should feel like that specific person telling that specific truth, not a generic "world music" pastiche.
Vrednosti, ki vodijo novo delo
Resnične zgodbe, ne izmišljene.
Vsaka pesem, vsaka deželna stran, vsak zapis opisuje nekaj, kar se je dejansko zgodilo ali je iskreno še vedno v teku – nikoli napolnjeno, nikoli napihnjeno.
Konpa dediščina je zadolžena, ne le uporabljena
Nemours Jean-Baptiste in tradicija Konpa prihajajo iz imenovanja, vsakič – ta projekt si sposoja zvok in mu dolguje svojo zgodovino.
Vsaka pesem je darilo, ne pa izdelek.
Instinkt je vedno "kdo to uvaja novo kulturo ali novega prijatelja" pred "kako se to prodaja."
Globina nad volumnom
Ena pesem z resnično zgodbo, pravimi besedami, pravimi prevodi in povezavo z resnično deželo premaga deset plitkih sledi.
Kaj se nikoli ne sme spremeniti
- ●The Haitian-American identity at the center of it — this is not a generic "world music" brand and never should become one.
- ●Crediting Konpa's real origin (Nemours Jean-Baptiste, 1955 Haiti) whenever the genre is explained.
- ●Honesty in every number shown publicly — no inflated counts, no fabricated milestones, no backfilled history.
- ●Every song and country page staying free to experience — the music is a gift, not a paywall.
Kaj je spodbudno za razvoj
- →New genres and collaborators, as long as the Haitian-American throughline stays legible.
- →New languages, translations, and countries — the catalog is built to grow this way from day one.
- →New formats: video, live performance, education, community covers — anything that makes a song a living experience rather than a static track.
- →The tools and platforms this runs on. The values above matter far more than any particular tech stack.
Za prihodnje skrbnike
If you're reading this because you've inherited this project, or you're helping carry it forward: you don't need to guess what would have been wanted. Use this page.
When a decision doesn't have an obvious answer, ask which choice serves the person listening to a song for the first time — not which choice is easiest to build or most impressive to announce.
When in doubt about whether something belongs, the test is simple: does it help someone discover, perform, or share the Konpa story — or does it just add noise around it?
