Really immpressive debut by this young lady with a strong and beautiful voice. If her follow ups sound anything like this song, expect her to become a regular on CM. Ps here is a good interview with the “indie pop sensation”
“Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.”
Ok, Read the SC comments. Kygo said it’s good and people follow blindly… not so blind this time, since this is actually really good. Enjoy that summer feeling and the retro,neo,update,rework,spin,edit. Whatever you might want to label it, the tune scores almost all possible points, and for the dum-dum djs go and DL this free no-brainer.
“Hey Ya” is the true meaning of life.”
– Urban Dictionary
Back then we all got tired of “Hey Ya” in no time at all. It was being played everywhere and became so popular that there was simply no escaping this. But when it first originally came out a few months prior we all played it to the death and thought It was the coolest thing around, because it was so much of an unusual tune, especially for such a “real” hip hop group like Outkast (used to be, before thy became awesome). But now ten years down the road, it came up playing on my iTunes – and in my defense – i don’t listen to radio or watch TV at all (must be playing there all the time) – it was such an awesome, positive, fun-filled song in such radical contrast to todays moody and heavy, thought filled songs, that all try to sound arty and end up sounding so deprived of life. I guess that’s why Daft Punks song was so successful last summer – it was sheer fun and the same goes for “Hey Ya” ( x 100). It’s such a ridiculously simple (music and chord wise) song that does not try to be more than it is – sheer fun. Now that’s what i call grown up!
“Shake it, shake shake shake, shake it like a Polaroid picture!!” …maybe retro hipster kids know what i’m talking about with their old cameras… even though you’re not supposed to shake a Polaroid ;)
Need You is the first single from the upcoming album, “The Orchid Days” by L’Orange. Here is what he wrote on his SC: “A man fell in love. Then, the world was destroyed by an ever growing nothing in the sky.” -L’Orange Produced by L’Orange /Vocals by Blu
L’orange always drops the dopest beats and Blu absolutely kills it, like always
“If you think sunshine brings you happiness,
then you haven’t danced in the rain.”
If there ever was a motto for this Mixtape series it’s pretty much summed up in the subtitle: Give you the heavens and the sunshine. What was meant by that becomes obvious when listening to the each of the series. Throughout the years there was always music needed to accompany you on your travels and every path taken appears to be a new and fresh journey – so this is what these mixes are about. The many listeners have thanked me for so many new artists they have found with the Sweet Serenade Mixtapes often and I open heartedly appreciate that. It was often demanded that we release these mixes as official Albums, but what’s the difference – at most its the quality – so here you go – the entire bundle as High quality versions. And one more thing – share it with your friends just like we have shared it with everyone else, your friends in real life not on your social media nets :)).
Ps: Dear friends, below you’ll find a Bandcamp Playlist that runs for about 7h. So press play and let the music have you smooth sailing through your daily routines. No matter if its regular work, studying, daydreaming or simply swaying away in your hammoks. Appreciate life.
