NEWS : Darren Campbell, Adelphia, Aaron Fleming.

     So Ladies and Gents, are you ready for some news from Darren, Aaron and from guys from Adelphia? Hope so. Last month was very busy for these guys, but they came back with some music for you and also with an important words, but later about it.


Aaron Fleming

     I think (and hope) that you remember this nice guy from my previous note. And you know what? He is just like so damn talented busy bee.Why? Because last month he did two epic covers. First one was "Robbers" by The 1975 and the second - "Simple As This" by Jake Bugg. Who knows, maybe this week or next he will do us some great surprise and he will do another cover [or covers]... I really hope so. 
   Anyway, as for me both of these songs are very, very great. Excellcent voice, super performing of these songs, excellent choice with these songs. Great job Aaron!
   And you, what do you think about these covers? I'm sure you like them too. 

 Robbers [The 1975 cover]

 Simple As This [Jake Bugg cover]

Darren Campbell

     After three months he came back with the new music video to his last single, "Home". I know, you can just scream "finally!" but believe me, it was worthwhile to wait. I'm sure that all of you who already know this song [you can read more about this song here] and also these who hear about it for the first time - you all will like it. And song of course too.  I'm just pretty sure of it. In my opinion this video is the next super-great thing made by him. 
  Darren - great job!

 Home

Adelphia

     And finally - a few words from them, cool guys from Adelphia. Do you remember them? I'm sure that yes. So as I already said, today they put very important notice on their official FB page:

ADELPHIA ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW RHYTHM GUITARIST!

As some of you may know, Nick is no longer playing rhythm guitar and is now focusing on vocals. This however means we will be holding auditions for a new rhythm guitarist to join Adelphia as the permanent 5th member! If you think you fit the bill send us a message through our email : adelphiaband@gmail.com and we will get back to you ASAP!

Song of the day : "Home" by Darren Campbell.

     Guess what... Today is the day of the premiere of new song - "Home" by remarkable Darren Campbell. Who is excited as I to hear something new recorded by him?

Darren Campbell is a young and talented singer and songwriter from Dundee [Scotland], who is singing his own songs and also covers of other musicians. He released one EP "Days To Come" [September 2012] and a few singles f.e.: "Find My Way" [January 2012], "Growing Apart" [February 2013], "Remember You" [July 2013]. His music is a mix of pop, indie, folk and acoustic.
You can read more about Darren and also his misuc on his pages: Facebook, YouTube, Tumblr, Twitter, Bandcamp, iTunes, Soundcloud, Spotify.


Also you can find more about Darren and his music in my previous post here. 

*

At first, I just have to say it: 

 Darren - you did it again, you made another great song. Great job! Thank you for it.

     
     Ok, maybe that's crazy or maybe not, but when he already has a new song, I knew it will be something good, before I listen to it. Why? Because I know that Darren makes only perfect music. And after the first seconds I knew that this is it. This is just brilliant. Again.

     I could say "I feel summertime in the air" and I think it would be a truth because when you listen to "Home" you feel all these nice emotions and you feel...freedom. Yes, I think it's a good description of this song. But of course, maybe for some of you think, that I'm talking something wrong. I'm sure that if you will listen to this song, "Home", you will exactly know about what I'm talking now.

     You know, something good is in this song, that every sound makes you happy somehow and you just want to play it again and again and again. And that's really great.

     "Home" is a great mix of pop, folk and of course a bit of acoustic, what makes an amazing atmosphere. Music and also lyrics are just excellent, as always of course. We can find here nice music with power inside, music what makes that you want to sing, to dance, to feel this positive energy.
   
    
     In my opinion there is nothing bad, wrong or something like that. As for me this song is just perfect. Perfect, if you want to listen to pure and real music.
     Try it. Just click "play" and feel it. I'm sure that you will be smiling and you will be feeling better and that "Home" will make your day [or even a week or the month] happier. Trust me.
So, are you ready?




  
     If you like this song, show him some love and share this song with your friends and/or with other people. Tell the World about this awesome song and of course about Darren.

 

   
     Anyway, I can't wait for more music by him. I know that it will be the same great (or even better) and unique.

Today I've a few more or less important news, but as always very interesting. Let's start!

Darren Campbell

Yes, Darren Campbell has a new song Out of Reach. As for me is really amazing and the same good as previous, maybe even better. I think you really have to listen to it and just feel real music.
You can find this song here: [X] - enjoy.

RHYME

Do you want to check calmer side of the band? Check their new video to song Step Aside in acoustic version here: [X] and be surprise. Trust me, you will be. Also watch their last music video to Party Right here: [X]  \m/

Bad Cardigan

Jack Anwyl & Tom Randall still on tour! Badly that only in UK, but good for them that they've new concerts almost non-stop. In November you will be able to see them here:

And a few words about their show from 28th November [X]:

Regrettably, the gig we had planned for 28th November at Bakers Vaults, has had to be postponed for some reason. All being well it should be re-scheduled for 2014.

 I'm looking for some new date of their shows and of course I'll put them here, as soon as possible.

Oblyvion

Oblyvion, band from Italy has a new shows in November and in December! More about them you can find on their official page, but here is the list of them:

20/11/2013 @ Traffic (Rm)
21/11/2013 @ Colony (Bs)
30/11/2013 @ Rock'n'Roll (Rm)

Also, maybe you heard or not the latest news about them and year 2014. 

Breaking news:
"Plan B Booking are pleased to announce that Italian band The Shiver are to join the roster of bands & will be touring Europe next year in the spring. this will be in support of the bands new Album release The Darkest Hour".

from [X]

Even Plan B Booking Agency put some info about it [X]:

Other news

This time the other news will be about concerts in Poland next year. As we all know, tour organizers and promoters wants to "kill" fans of music, especially at the end year ;) and this time is the same.

I think that next year will be the same great as this one because of last cocnerts which were announced. And what we have there, on the list? Only the best, I could say.

As for me the best information was, and still is, concert by NIN on June 10 2014 in Katowice [Poland]. Also the rest of dates and places looks very interesting:

Are you going to see them?

The second good news is concert by Aerosmith on June 12 2014 in Łódź [Poland]. Badly that it will be during Impact Festival 2014, but what can we do...?

Anyway, at Impact Festival 2014, on June 11 2014, will appear Black Sabbath - nice surprise, right?

So if you want to see both (or one of these bands) come to Łódź and enjoy your time at
Impact Festival 2014.

The next cool news is about Soundgarden and their show in Poland next year. Of course they will play at festival (again!) but it will be their first show in Poland. You will be able to see them on June 27 2014 at Oświęcim Frstival 2014. 

And as everyone are saying, this is the beginning of concerts news, so I think we should wait a bit, save our money and then choose where to go to enjoy music and freat time.

And what with your music plans for the next year - are you going to some concerts?

Music battle : Skinny Love

It's time for...the music battle!

Today's battle is between Bon Iver and their amazing version of Skinny Love and versions performed by other musicians.

Skinny Love is  a song by American indie folk band Bon Iver, from their debut album For Emma, Forever Ago, released in  2008.

Be honest - this song is really wonderful. Not only because of lyrics or music, but because it lets show emotions of person who's singing it. And maybe this is a secret why it has so many covers ;)

You can find many versions of Skinny Love (check it out), more or less known, better and worse and I could to do a few parts like f.e. 'Skinny Love - great versions' but I chose a few, which are really good in my opinion and I hope you will like them as I.

I like when somebody, who is singing a song as a cover, is giving something more, something new, something fresh to that song and is surprising with the performance. That's cool. Ok, ok - this is a cover, only a cover of someone's song, but trust me, it's really great to hear some emotions, something new, soul and talent of performer, not only 'the same things'.

You are deciding, which version is the best and/or the worst? Maybe original version or maybe one of these covers? Also if you know or like other version of Skinny Love, which I didn't put here, write in the comments - it would be really nice to get to know something else. Write everything -your opinions and other version in the comments, under this post ↓ .

You can also find these songs as a playlist on my YT channel here.

 Time for the battle!

Song of the day : Darren Campbell 'Growing Apart'

Today, I would like to present and recommend you Growing Apart, amazing song by young and very talented musician - Darren Campbell.
so Ladies and Gents, make some nosie for him and his wonderful song!

Do you remember Darren? I wrote about him a few posts earlier, as artist of the day, were you could read not only a few things about his music and about Darren, but also quick interview with him. If you missed it (shame on you!), you can find it here: http://xgosiax.blogspot.com/2013/02/artist-of-day-darren-campbell.html .

But today I'm not here to talk about him, but about Darren's new single Growing Apart. 

Growing Apart is an acoustic pop rock song and it's the third music video and the fifth single by Darren Campbell. You can download it on iTunes here: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/growing-apart-single/id610257612 .also you can find there his other songs, f.e. from album Days to come [EP].

Lyrics:

    Take a walk with me girl, down to the river.
    I want to hold your hand.
    I know that saying goodbye, is harder than ever,
    but we have to try.
    Stay true to me love, stay true to yourself, and who you are.
    Take a walk with me friend, we’ll talk about where we’ve been.
    And the fun we’ve had.
    I know that growing apart, can come with growing old.
    But we still catch up.
    Stay true to me love, stay true to yourself, and who you are.
    Stay true to me love, stay true to yourself, and who you are.

Darren Campbell Growing Apart

This song has an amazing lyrics and sounds, and video is simple and unique, with so nice views, what makes everything better and better. In my opinion everything, song and video, is just wonderful, and is giving us, listeners, something more than only music, but all these good feelings inside, and then we just want more and more. To be honest, you have the same feeling with every song by Darren. Anyway, when you are watching and/or listening to Growing Apart, you've only one thought in your mind 'damn, this is it! this is it!'.

Yes, always when I'm listening to Darren's songs, not only this one, I've something like 'wooow!' at first, then 'oh, no, is it already the end?' and I just have to play it again and again because I just love his music. Why? Because it's like a breath of fresh air, it's something real, something different than everything what we can find in the radio or on TV, what's really good.

As I wrote last time, I will say the same this time too. Darren is such a talented guy and I really believe (no, I just know it) he'll be huge musician soon, so better remember his name :)

And as the last time that today I'm keeping my fingers crossed for him, his future and successes.

may the Energy be with you! ...enjoy the video and song :)

And now, it's time for a few screens from Growing Apart...

Artist of the day : Darren Campbell

quick question - do you know Darren Campbell? 
I don't think so because he's not too famous yet (and that's badly but I really hope it'll change soon, very soon) and I'm sure that most of you would say: 'no, I didn't hear about him'. that's why today I would like to present to you young, talented Scottish musician and songwriter as an artist of the day - Ladies and Gents, make some noise for Darren Campbell.

as for me Darren is one of these people who can give something - you know, something special with their music and words. I listened to all his songs and I was (and I still am) between 'wooow' and 'holy crap, that's so great!'. his songs have something what causes that you're impressed because of everything - lyrics and music - and you just must listen to them, from beginning to end.

I know, my opinion isn't everything, and that's why I wrote to Darren with a few questions about him, his music and his plans for the future...and two days later I got reply from Darren - woow!

ok, let's see what he said...

could you say a few words about yourself?
Darren: I'm Darren and I am a part time singer songwriter from Scotland, looking to make it fulltime.

why did you become a musician?
D: Simply because I love palying and sharing my music with people.

how would you describe your music style?
D:  Pop/Acoustic/rock

do you have music idols? do you want to be like them?
D: There is nobody I wasn to be like musically, i feel i have a unique sound. But I love loads of artists and bands such as Ben Howard, Lewis Watson and The Dangerous Summer.

from where are you getting idea/inspiration for new songs?
 D: This is a hard one, my songs and ideas just sort of come to me when I am palying guitar. Very rarely do I sit down and write on a speicific subject intentionally.

your songs are for... exactly, for whom?
D: That would be telling!! But everyone will interperet my songs in their own way.

I listened to your songs and I think they're really cool and positive. are you going to write/record songs in such a style?
D: Yes I am keeping to this style, and thank you!

what would you say about your debut EP 'Days to come'*?
D: Its a 4 track EP with four catchy style songs. Track1,3 and 4 are a similair poppy style but I feel track 2 "Better Things" is more rocky/pop punk.

why is it worthwhile to listen to your music?
D: This is a hard one to answer, I feel my music can be enjoyed by most people. I have fans that listen to metal and hardcore for example.

when will it be possible to listen to your new songs?
D: I have a new single "Growing Apart," which will hopefully be released in the next week or so. Its going to have a music video too!

what with your next EP or album - are you planning recording something like that?
D: I am focussing on singles for the next year so haven't thought about another EP , but there will be plenty of new songs.

with whom would you like to cooperate in the future(if you had such a possibility)?
D: I'm not too sure, I am trying to focus on writing my own songs at the moment but in the future it would be great to collaborate with some femaile vocalists.

do you have some tour in your plans?
D: At the moment I am planning on getting my name out in Scotland then hopefully paly over the rest of the UK.

and what now? do you have some plans for the nearest future?
D: Right now I am preparing to release my new song "Growing Apart," and I am the starting the video to the single that will be released after that!

do you want to say something to your fans or people who just got to know you?
D: Yes! Thank you so much for the support and please share my music with your friends! I appreciate it :)

* you can listen to this album Days to come [EP] here: http://darrencampbell.bandcamp.com and here: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/days-to-come-ep/id560490154

interesting, isn't it?


as you see he's very talented singer and songwriter, who will give us a lot of wonderful songs - I'm sure of it. why? oh, please... cool songs, awesome music, amazing lyrics, great vocal - everything what you need to happiness. and that's why I think he still still surprise us: with new songs, with new dose of energy. personally, I can't wait to listen to his new sounds soon.

 I just fell in love with his music, to be honest :)


I want to thank Darren for his courtesies, so quickly reply on my questions and for his help with this post - what was really nice. and I want to wish Darren all the best - more successes, only great songs & albums and more cool fans, who will love his music. and just good and happy times in his life.
also I'm keeping my fingers crossed for him, his future and successes.
