Keeping It Fresh

Today's song is by a lesser known band, The Bravery. They have a post punk/80's sound that really makes them stand out. I really like this song because of its blending of different sounds. It has an ethereal sound in the background with a rock chorus. Today's instrumental song is by Tiesto, but this is a remix done by Avicii. So basically, it is freaking amazing! I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today's song is by an alternative rock group, but they have used elements of all kinds of genres. Incubus has been around for 20 years (longer than Linkin Park) and they still have a fantastic and engaging sound. I love how they use instruments that aren't associated with rock! Today's instrumental song is an amazing piece is performed by the group Escala. They really make this composition their own and keep it energized. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

So I realized that I have not posted any of my cultural music-Bollywood. This song is from one of the Bollywood classics and exemplifies our culture/dances. I warn you though, this song is long and if you don't like this song, there is a huge selection of songs to choose from This is not the only style of Bollywood music. Today's instrumental song is Sufi style. Sufi music is extremely beautiful an calming, and gives you a taste of Eastern music. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today's song is by Anberlin. This song is amazing and begins slow but then becomes energetic and moving. Today's instrumental song is from the movie Pearl Harbor. This movie is phenomenal and I highly recommend that you go watch it if possible. This song is inspirational and romantic  with driving energy and passion. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today's song is by the Russian-German electro artist, Zedd. He is so talented and knows classical music, how to play the drums, and electro. He is phenomenal to hear in recordings and live! Today's instrumental song is by Porter Robinson who is from North Carolina. His style is more progressive house than electro, but he is extraordinary! I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today's song is one of my favorites off the album Science and Faith by the Script. This song has beautiful melodies and harmonies, plus some of the sweetest lyrics! Today's instrumental song is performed by the Cinematic Orchestra for a nature movie. However, this song is incredibly beautiful and the instruments are phenomenally balanced! I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!

Today's song comes from the awesome band Switchfoot. This song was actually written about orphans and underprivileged children and how they always defy the odds of life. I love the hard rock beat and the strong lyrics! Today's instrumental song is from the Dark Knight Rises. Enough said...Anyway, I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!
