Music= Life

Since the year 2000: I’ve followed my passion for music extensively & unwarily religiously so. I’ve helplessly followed wherever it led me. From my 1^st discovery of the double disk compilation album called Verve remixes to Boozoo Bajou; Dorfmiester to 340ml; Blue 6 to J Dilla; Foreign exchange to 4 hero & the list goes on & on like Erykah Badu! The point is:  I’ve been very true with my feelings for global/world music. It played a big role in influencing my way of thinking. The way I look at the world & how I’d like to change or make my community a better place to live in. Like the air that I breathe, appreciating my parents for my existence & being thankful for being able to wake up everyday with a purpose: Music!

I think now I’m at a point where I’m listening to a sound I never knew I was looking for. And I've always been drawn to the strange sounds of Massive Attack, Portishead, Matthew Herbert, Hird, Dimlite, Forrs & Oy. The fantastical sounds of Cinematic Orchestra, Dzihan & Kamien. To future sounds of Jamoriquai, Nicolay, Blaq Faith, Domu, Dego, 2000 black, IAMNOBODY, Pandaboy & Astronautica! These sounds changed my perception of music & life in general. It broke me out of the chains of conformity. It made me fly when I didn't believe I could. It made me live out of the box; always. I’m so in love & in an affair that’s been going for 13 years now...

I don't remember very well...? but i think i heard this song on "The Bartender" mix!?

Evenings - Babe (Shigeto Remix)

As my music collection keeps on getting serious day by day, month by month; I bumped into this homie in the soulection compilation I discovered last year in my external drive!? I know! you probably asking yourself; "he didn't know he had it?" Well I didn't! You see here's the thing; right! My love for music is very pure & honest! More like the sword in stone story: Arthur obtained the throne by pulling a sword from a stone. Only & only "the true king; the divinely appointed true heir" can perform this task! Like  the princess & the frog, Cinderella & Sam; who was universally chosen by the Autobots to keep the AllSpark away from the Decepticons in Transformers. Thats what music is to me & thats what I am to it! I was chosen, divinely, universally & spiritually to be the listener; the sharer & preacher by the gods sound. I've always found myself bumping into great albums left by friends; on the desktop. If my drive is there they'd throw a couple in there & send me an sms that I've something waiting for me in my drive! Some just keep quite & let me find it in my own time! Which makes it more adventurers & exciting when I do find it.

I'll be profiling him soon! In the meantime: here's a song that's got me stuck on repeat.
