+++Vassy- singer/song writer/Australian+++

Vassy
Karagiorgos, This artist has been working the music industry since 2003 but be expecting big things from her within the upcoming months. I recently found this artist browsing youtube. She write all her own material and has written for a lot of Television show series, and had her music play on many major motion picture sliek the opening of 007, Sex in the City 2 etc. She also collaborates with big named producers such as gaga, U2, Radiohead, Weezer, Nelly Furtado, Madona and some other know artists that you may not want to be associate with like Hillary Duff... right.Anyhow expect to be hearing Vassy coming to a club near you being mainstream.

What I absolutely love about this artist is that her voice is so smooth and strong. It has a rich and sexy. When I first heard her music it reminded me of Eryka Badu. As jazzy as her voice may be it translates ever so nicely to a lot dance music too. So whether you are looking for something to unwind to or lace up your kicks to hit the club I would definitely check out this artist.

+++ADELE-singer/song writer/all around bad ass mother f*$%@#+++

If there is one artist who should be in everyone's music collection it would be Adele. By the way she is only 22! She was born in 1988 you do the math... This fabulously larger than life star from the U.K. doesn't mess around. I have never heard so much range and emotion from a singer. Writing this blog I have really started to learn a lot about my self and my music preference. I almost feel everyone should write a music blog to get a better understanding of their music aesthetic. SOUL man anyone who brings the funk and lungs can come hang with me whenever they want.

With that said it seems like everyone is trying to get their bit of Adele nowadays. Sampling, copying, whatever you want to call it I truly believe is the biggest form of flattery.






your all welcome
enjoy.

++transitions++

In high school I went through this extemely emo phase listening to alternative bands such as mae, dashboard confessionals, the used, the format, the get up kids and the list goes on and on. As we grow our taste may change but the foundation is still there. Sufjan Stevens in my opinion is a great transition from my then to now. 














+++Sufjan Stevens- Detroit, Michigan singer/songwritter+++

Sufjan grew up in Detroit Michigan. Probably one of the other best things that came out from the state besides the Celtics. I am sure you have all heard his music before. A lot of his tracks were on "The Little Miss Sunshine" soundtrack.

Props to this artist for writing all of his own materials and performing all of his music live. He get the authentic kt artist stamp of approval. Lets face it artist these day should be ashamed for calling themselves artists because really hardly any of them create anything. 

Ironically, the song I choose for Sufjan that I wanted to share is a cover. It was originally recorded by "Innocence Mission" Both versions are excellent. I would recommend you get both. Personally for me I feel like this song captures those moments in your life when your ready for something better and new. In his moment of flux it sounds like he's ready for strength in the new spring. enjoy.

+++welcome+++

Due to a good friend of mine, I am beginning a music blog.

I am neither a writer nor a music professional.
This is just a blog of my miscellaneous beats of an ongoing music seeker. Because, to me if there is anything that has ever a constant in my life... it's music. If there is anything in life that I truly feel firm about, it is my addiction to the power of music.

Music to me is not just another jam. It's my everything. The air I breath, the water I drink it's my life. To me I want to share my on going biography through music.

+++Eric Lau- London based music producer+++

I stumbled upon this artist looking for something soulful and sexy. Personally, the more acoustic instruments the better. Maybe it's my background being apart of "dorkestra" from middle to high school. But I appreciate this song because it's just another well done jazz beat to add to your repertoire. You have your funky bass, your jazz flute solo and lets admit it your main singer is not saying much. The layering of sounds flow so well together. (If a singer can sing an entire song pretty much saying one or two words for the entire song and it sounds right like Rilo Kiley's-i never "I never" or maybe this is pushing it but Karen O's-maps "wait they won't love you like I love you maaaaaaaps" etc) I'm looking forward to listening to more of his music. enjoy.
