Hello Cedric how are you? I’m great, really excited to release my new album “A Luminous World – Time is Color Vol.2” in a week ! Congratulations on the release of A Luminous World Vol. 2 how does it feel? I’m happy to share this new music with the world. It’s a very unique album …
In honour of the epic news that The Doobie Brothers and Michael McDonald are putting out a new album after 40 years I thought I’d revisit this classic track from 1976. What do I like about this song? Well. EVERYTHING! The first time I ever heard it was when I watched Forrest Gump. It was …
This track is bluesy, and I LOVE IT! You’ve got everything on here. They through everything at this track – is that a Jewish Harp??? Very possible. The guitar at the beginning starts off with a bit of a growl, I think I can imagine Eric Clapton giving a nod of approval and nudging John …
What caught my ear with this particular song is Freya’s voice – her tone is rich. It’s nice and deep, and touches the soul. I think that is intentional because of the content of the lyrics, this will cause a literal resonance within you to make you want to progress. What do I mean? Well, …
This song is one of those ones you’re supposed to have with your morning cuppa. It starts off with a cymbal swell, then Naima Girou comes in with this beautiful BEAUTIFUL vocal that for some reason really just made me smile. She’s playing her double bass and it fits in so smoothly. This switches from …
Oh my word. On first hearing this track I thought it was a long forgotten track from the 60s left in the archives of some studio in Memphis. The vocals are rough, and full of blues and soul, Ben l’Oncle Soul’s voice does not show his 41 years of age he sings with a power …
This track is pure poetry from top to bottom! The beat prowls, it starts off with a guitar playing a tasty little riff but it switches up around 0:11. Eva comes in good and strong, loud and proud about her family history, from Jamaican descent to Bristol and busking with her crew. She lets you …
Hello Mike how are you? I’m ok, thank you for asking. Congratulations on the release of “Satsuma” how does it feel? Thank you – it feels wonderful. I like the concept I came up with, I executed to the best of my abilities, and it’s been received well by my fans so far, so that’s …
What I like about this song is its ability to switch from steady paced dance floor banger to a jazzy ballad in the blink of an eye. This starts off with a lovely glassy fender Rhodes, the shakers fade up and then the drum beat comes in at 0:20, giving that Afrobeat vibe. The chord …
Now this is so cool! This simmers along at the beginning, with instruments that sound about ready to explode – but the energy is held back for the vocals and it switches between rock and theatrical. I could imagine this being a treat live! The lyrics reference the high life – ala mode meaning in …
