Music Discovery: Moses Melkonian, “Like Gods (Live)”

Posted in Music Discovery with tags , , , , , , on Wednesday, January 18, 2012 by Eric Gilardi

With being new to this whole blog atmosphere I was wondering who this person was that was liking some of my posts. When I looked into it I discovered an independent artist who is looking for his break in the music industry. My adventure over to mosesjunkyard was followed by the viewing of a very real person with a real passion for his music. Moses Melkonian’s video for “Like Gods (Live)”  captures this passion that he has. It is a raw version of the track but it gives it a somber sound that reminds me of the likes of; the “Ladder Song” by Bright Eyes and “Mad World” by Gary Jules. I know this discovery of Moses Melkonian will be a positive one in my life, and for this I thank him.

Music Discovery: Scarlet Monk AnnaBella

If the cover art on Scarlet Monk’s debut album AnnaBella doesn’t seductively make you take your clothes off her voice will definitely make you strip down and make your own cover art. Her elegant sultry voice is blended with such laid back and subtle beats that it will make you feel like you are in a martini lounge sipping on a dirty one. AnnaBella is an album that will keep you wondering what she has in store for you next. In the track “Flutter” ADaD adds a smooth flow to give the album a true hip-hip element. If you like downtempo music I suggest you head over to the Global Vortex site, give her album a listen and you just might discover what you have been missing.

It is highly recommended that you listen to this album with someone you are passionate with or want to be passionate with.
