“NBP Human is the bold musical project of Hungarian artist Balázs Janky, a gifted singer, songwriter, and musician who skillfully blends grunge, indie, and rock to explore deep themes about life and humanity. Having begun as a garage rock group back in the 1990s, NBP Human has since been able to transform into a potent artistic voice that expresses candid reflections on the society and our inner realities.
His latest single titled We’ve Got The Moment conveys the desire and the mixed feelings that accompany the speed at which time flies and how everyone should live in the current moment. The song itself is comprised of rough guitar tones, a driving beat, and rough-sounding vocals of Janky which makes the song feel like a resounding call to action to not forget the precious moments of life.
The music video goes hand in hand with this message and gives us a rapid visual narrative of how life goes by depicting birth to milestones in our lives that remind us that time is precious and that it is so easy to forget just how important every moment is.
During this interview, Balazs discusses what inspired We Have Got The Moment, how this grunge-inspired song was created, and how it relates to the greater NBP Human narrative. This interview gives us an idea about an artist who composes music that touches the mind and the heart.
In the discussion, it is clear that personal experiences and insights about the modern life influence his songwriting, and that he uses his songwriting to make people analyze their own lives and choices more closely. Balazs shows us in his work that music can be used as entertainment as well as a way to reflect on what is important in our lives on a day to day basis. “Seizing Life’s Moments: Inside NBP Human’s Latest Single”

What was the spark that inspired “We’ve Got the Moment”, and how did the song first take shape?
When I began working on the songs for my musical project, NBP Human, I revisited all of my earlier themes and ideas. Since I’ve always written songs by capturing the moments and feelings I experience, this one emerged with a strong grunge-flavored guitar theme and a really catchy melody for both the verse and the refrain idea from 2020. The key line of refrain that ties it all together is: We’ve got the moment. I immediately knew for sure this had to be a single.
As I listened to the ideas one after another, I was struck by a harsh truth about life: as time passes, the only things we truly remember are the happy moments. Nothing else really matters.
We only have a few thousand days in this life—and just a few hundred truly joyful moments. Yet, as we chase after our routines, problems, work, expectations, struggles, and even our successes, we lose sight of what’s truly important.
With this song, I wanted to draw attention to that—with a short but powerful song, accompanied by a music video that presents a series of real, spontaneous happy moments from human life, telling a complete story from birth to the end.
The title suggests a feeling of seizing the present — was there a particular event or mindset behind that message?
I had a realization on my birthday this year that really hit me: in childhood, every day feels like a long journey. But as we grow older, time seems to pass faster and faster — the days feel shorter, almost like they’re slipping away.
And we end up spending so much of our lives dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. Yet the truth is, the only thing we can truly feel and experience is the present moment
How would you describe the song’s mood and energy to someone who hasn’t heard it yet?
It’s short, pulsating, powerful, and dynamic—thoughtful, yet filled with genuine happiness, just like life itself.
Were there any specific genres, artists, or personal influences that shaped the sound of this track?
It kind of just broke out of me — raw, with a grunge flavor that somehow echoed the power and feel of bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, or Soundgarden. But honestly, it wasn’t a conscious decision at all
What was the creative process like — did the lyrics or the music come first?
First, I came up with a really strong, striking musical theme and the refrain just came instinctively. After that, I built the instrumentation around it and wrote lyrics that felt thoughtful and true to the mood. The whole process just felt natural, almost self-evident.
How does “We’ve Got the Moment” fit within your overall musical style, and does it mark any new directions for you?
It absolutely fits into my NBP Human style — a grunge-flavored indie rock-pop sound that’s very much centered around the guitar. Over the years, of course, a number of artists have influenced me — Nirvana, Pearl Jam, U2, Soundgarden, Dire Straits, Santana, Chris Rea, Radiohead, Foo Fighters, Nickelback — but in the end, people often say the sound I’ve developed is something truly unique.
Were there any challenges you faced in bringing this track to life, whether in writing, recording, or production?
Like I mentioned earlier, the whole musical and lyrical process felt almost self-evident. To be honest, the only real challenge was going through a few thousand footages to find the best moments, reactions, and movements — then cutting and piecing them together into a music video that tells the story of a lifetime, all in the right rhythm. It was a beautiful task, but definitely a tough one. All in all, the final video makes it all worthwhile.
If you could place “We’ve Got the Moment” in a film, TV show, or special moment, where would it belong?
I can imagine it as a reflective moment at the end of a beautiful film — like the kind of scene that stays with you long after the credits roll.
What do you hope listeners will feel or take away after hearing the song?
I really hope it captures their attention and allows them to truly live in the moment — to feel its joy. I hope it inspires people to dare to live in the moment.
Looking forward, do you see this single as a standalone moment or part of a larger project in the works?
NBP Human is a musical project for expressing sharp, poetic reflections on humanity, society, and inner truth—through the gritty lens of indie and grunge rock.
The project’s reawakening began with the 2025 February release of ‘Morbid Craziness’, a searing track marked by intense lyrics and a haunting visual identity reflecting to the morbid craziness we are living in nowadays.
Its original video was flagged by YouTube for sensitive content, underscoring the rawness and relevance of its imagery. In response, a lyrics video was released—now gaining strong momentum across global platforms and radio stations.
Then NBP Human continues to shape the project with his long-time creative partners:
Zsolt Gyulai (sound engineer) and Loránt Hollay (photographer & cameraman)
presents a new, equally compelling single:‘The Fundaments’ – a high-octane indie-grunge rock hit driven by unfiltered rock’n’roll energy and strong, thoughtful lyrical content. The song urges us to return to our inner roots—to the pure aspirations of our childhood selves—arguing that true happiness begins when we rediscover the dreams we once believed in. A lyrics video was released to the track with exciting graphical styled picturial world, becoming very popular in short time.
We’ve Got the Moment is the third single in a row, and of course, the next releases are already in the pipeline. They’ll continue in the signature NBP Human style — with thought-provoking, reflective lyrics and music videos to match. This project is just getting started!😉
