Kayleigh's Journal

FETCHER. · 10-12-2009, 06:50 PM

Well, i fell i have to contribute more to MB, make myself less of a noob or something.
so here i am.
WELCOME TO KAYLEIGH'S (PLAIN NAMED) JOURNAL
this journal serves the purpose of my passion for music, I have in no way got any musical ability whatsoever. But when it comes to which music I like and which i don’t, im pretty picky. For those who automatically think, this will all be Electronica reviews, you would be half right, why would i make a journal of stuff i don’t like.. occasionally there will be a review on an album i don’t like, but i want this journal to be filled with positivity. Mainly anyways. Excuse my English also, the subject wasn’t my strong point as many have probably guessed (my excessive use of comma’s). Sometimes i don’t have a lot to say, wither this is good or bad... I don’t know. But i don’t want the full of MB to be expecting some largely paragraphed intelligent Journal.
Anyways, thanks for taking time to even click this link.

enjoy folks eh? for me

How to describe this album? Well in all honesty. It blew me away. Its everything i ever wanted as a massive electronica fan. Seriously.
At first i doubted it, it looks like a typical common Ibiza complication, but its so so much more.
what i find most facinating is the fact that i never knew most artists (still dont) but knew almost every song.
when i listen to an album, i judge it on how it makes me feel.
this album in particular makes me feel, excited, wanting to dance. its almost like a cliff hanger, but in music.
its undescribable! it leaves me wanting to hear more.
the sounds of it are almost hypnotic.
the thing i like most about these three

William Orbit - Adagio For Strings (Ferry Corsten Remix)
Wow. Thats what. Ferry Corsten has taken William Orbits tune, and gave it some kind of twist that makes it sound totally amence.
it starts off slow and peacful, then builds up to a small backbeat sort of which is kind of electronic, it just keeps on building up and building up with all the electronic sounds, and turns into a repetitive tune, which never fails to make me want to dance like a complete idiot. this song doesnt have any vocals either, the vocals would drown out that amazing sound! i feel at the end. it just ends. which is the only thing i can pick on, Ferry needs a good anticlimax in there to leave people basically begging for more. Also, this version kicks Tiesto's danish ass.
Push - Strange World (Airwave Remix)
is the fact that its made entirely of a chillout, relaxing sound. with lots of buildups and anti climax's. which i like

this song doesnt have any vocals. im my opinion vocals would ruin it entitrely. well it kind of has these streched out deep "oooooh" 's through some parts. i dont really know how i feel about them or how to describe them. with all this combined the song is somewhat simple.. peaceful.. and simply amazing!
John O'Callaghan Ft Sarah Howells - Find Yourself
quoting myself on the first time i heard this "Awwwww Wit!"
a popular Scottish term which means to me, "that is fucking amazing!"
the start i admit is pretty low, yet fast, somewhat depressing beat.
then Sarah Howells vocals start, what a voice, sooo soothing/calming. i think she has been monitoring my life somehow. some parts describe me, then again, others don't.
After her vocals start the beat brightens up gradually, then at parts when shes singing, it beat drops right down, quietens.. and then goes with the context of the lyrics

Drawn into the backdrop here
you could fade, you could fade away
bright lights on a starless night
burn a hole in the dying day

Looking at life through a loaded gun
take your best shot, aim it at the sun
looking at life through a loaded gun
you know you'll find...

you'll find yourself, you'll find yourself alone
you'll find yourself, you'll find yourself alone
you'll find yourself, you'll find yourself alone
you'll find yourself, you'll find yourself alone

at the first stanza/paragraph/thingy, the beats rhythemical, it sounds basically like the only beat that exists, when im sure theres a small quiet natural beat kicking about, i concentrated so hard on it, im not sure if im imagining stuff or what

. in the "You'll find yourself, you'll find yourself alone" part its a happy bouncing beat that exists amounst it, which i find ironic (right context?) as its a negative expression.

any thoughts, questions (: ?

aha, i love you too! yeah i thought about the small letters, but it took up way too much room, you should have seen it, and do you mean like, youtube links or actual download links?

Arya Stark · 10-14-2009, 01:28 PM

Youtube links.

Nevermind the letters, I thought the whole thing was in that small font. Ignore me.
