Dreams...... Sweet Dreams!!

Sunday night and I am retiring to bed early with some soothing music: Dean Martin, Miles Davis, Aqua Bassino.

With the only light in my room being the distilled rays from a distant street lamp through a round window, all I see is the silhouette of objects around.

The sounds of these pieces take me to the calm sea shore where I see the waves soothing the age lines of a picturesque beach.

Music is so mesmerizing... I saw the pianist yesterday after being hooked to its music forever. Adrian Brody had done justice to his part. The character's love for the music... his soul is alive all the while... I guess that is the key to survival through the darkest of hours!

My fondness for war movies can never be fulfilled!

For those who love the sounds that take them to wherever they want to go, Aqua Bassino is definitely worth trying out!

As read in a review, the album that I am listening to: Beats and Bobs, the reviewer, Andy Puleston quite rightly describes the album as "A sumptuous mix of styles, Beats and Bobs fuses deep house with nu jazz, down tempo and African rythms to create a sound that is both accomplished and travelled."

Good music just makes my day.. in this case a great evening and a nice sleep...

Electronic music and Sleep

My favourite moment: Me alone in my car driving to nowhere land with strangers passing by in their big and small cars eagerly waiting to get to their destination...

One of my favourite hobbies is to sample new music and/or genre... not necessarily newly released albums but music new for me.

Music is a part of my life 24x7... well, music is me. Its brings out so many emotions: makes you laugh, cry, miss people, fall in love, anger.....

With the world where I am sleeps, I'd like to stick to some relaxing music to suit the mood.

I feel I'm close to becoming a junkie coz after death defying sound and some head banging, I prefer to listen to the soft and sedative sound of electronic. well, just a thought..

So I check my trusty iTunes for some nice music and come across Télépopmusik. Their dreamy music.. it just soothes all the stress away. Gives me the feeling as if I stepped into an old Hollywood movie.

I see remixed / dance version of these songs and wonder why would one want to rob the originals of their beauty??

Some of the Telepopmusik's songs that should not be missed:

Breathe

Love can damage your health

Close

Yesterday was a lie

Smile

I enjoy the company of some good music while driving and mr. radio jockey at 95 fm makes my day sometimes by playing a song where I can sing along really loud. However, I need to keep a backup of some of my personal choices as well for one of those rainy days when my friendly neighbour RJ's music notes do not match mine.

Good times gonna come

A couple of months back, I got an album of Aqualung after listening to their song in one of OC's episodes.

The album "Strange and beautiful" somehow reminds one of the era gone by. It's something you can listen to while driving on a long lonely road: restrospecting with a melancholic tone to some extent.

I liked the music for the soothing, melodic yet sedating tone, best for listening to on a rainy day.

The singer Matthew Hales has crisp voice that I haven't heard in sometime, quite addictive!

The opening note of the song, Good times gonna come is eerie but the strange sinking note picks up later with positive under tones.

The realization of Love found, love lost and then found again in the song Brighter than sunshine is borrowed in the movie A Lot like love.. aptly associated I must say.

I am picking the album up after a long time hence cannot comment on much songs as they need to be revisited.

On the whole, I would recommend the music to people who enjoy the soft tones of the piano, some dreamy and thoughtful/ mellow lyrics... perfect to listen to when you want the time to just go by...
