INCREDIBLE COVER of a lyrically amazing song LOVE
I’d imagine the whole world was one big machine. Machines never come with any extra parts, you know. They always come with the exact amount they need. So I figured if the entire world was one big machine, I couldn’t be an extra part. I had to be here for some reason. And that means you have to be here for some reason too.
—Hugo Cabret (Hugo)

Music Therapy
sooooo… I’m going to continue with this idea of Art changing the world and talk about some good ol’ art called music. I practice something called music therapy, I believe music has some of the strongest healing powers in the world and I am constantly on the hunt for music that catches my ears and my mind… that certain sound, that sound which becomes music therapy. So I’m going to share with you some new tunes that have caught my ear the past month:
Breath Me by Sia (PatrickReza Remix): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCgqU8v3biI
Sometimes something comes out that is just to cool to not share and this dubstep take on an amazing song is something that makes me want to hear more.
Open- Rhye: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0xE5iL2mjE
Bon Iver is growing in popularity and after his Grammy win more and more people are looking him up and listening to his sound. Rhye has that Bon Iver sound I love, I can just close my eyes and get lost in the music, and can’t help but to just bob my head to the melodies.
Cannons- Youth Lagoon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDkkK-KHjks
Youth Lagoon is doing something amazing with their sound it’s like Crystal Castles mixed with Matt and Kim mixed with some sound that I swear can only come from heaven.
I Gotta Feeling (Black Eyed Peas)- I AM NOXIOUS cover: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfInZIudtnk
Remember that one black eyed peas song that was played a million times on the radio… well forget how much you were annoyed with it and just take a listen to this amazing cover.
Gimme Bubblegum!!!- The Fantasies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6St6KodcXc
you know those songs that you just wanna blast in your car with the windows rolled down as the sun shines outside on a summer day. This song transports you to that summer day and I can’t wait till the suns out and I get to play this tune full blast in traffic on the highway!!!
Operating- Lady Danville: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRbqEZeri54
Last but not least a new single from one of my all time favorite bands. This song caught me with the hook right at the beginning following it up with some pretty amazing melodies and I can never resist a song that meshes the sounds of a piano and a drum kit that perfectly. I can’t wait to hear the new album.
Listen to all of them and I hope you find something you like… I have been listening to all these jams on repeat for the past few weeks and I’m sure in another few weeks it will be a whole other mix. GET YOURSELF SOME MUSIC THERAPY.
