Grammys 2018 review

Hey there one & all its DJ Dizzy here doing a review of the this years Grammys

Well this years awards were something to remember along with some of the performances but the thing is that most award shows are more about politics then about achievement & this proved to be just that.

Now I saw bits & pieces of the show & there were some moments that were okay but what I really thought was good was Logic's memorial tribute with his song inspired by the phone number of the suicide hotline (For those who hadn't have guessed.) But from what I noticed some of the acts were more about politics

So I want to rant a bit about this & other award shows that center around music. I just want to say that while the Grammys does spotlight true artistry I feel other awards show should do the same like the American Music Awards for example used to be about that & the performance itself even when they went live you could see that a lot of hard work was put into it.

And although I wasn't going to get off into it but there's also the Billboard Awards which is more about seeing who could sell the most CDs & have the most hits in a year. An award show to me should be about honoring talent & not just about who sold the most records or had the most hits. in some cases you do see that.

So those are just a few thoughts that I have about the Grammys & other award shows though it was more rant then review some stuff just had to be said regarding award shows. 

DJ's Spotlight: An interview with Lady & the Clowns

Hey there everyone DJ Dizzy here & I just recently did an interview with a group named Lady & the Clowns. To which I asked them some questions. Special thanks to them.

 

.

How'd you all get started in music?

We started playing by chance and then for fun, or probably because we didn’t have nothing better to do.

We’re inspired by the everyday life experiences. We write about everything that surrounds us. To us write is a vital necessity and to play is a primordial impulse

How has music impacted your lives?

Music impacted our lives in a very good way, we can’t image our life without it, without days spent in practice room and up and down on stage. It is a sort of teacher who contributed to our personal growth.

How do you set yourselves apart from other bands?


In a world full of emerging bands and singers there is a huge difficulty in distinguish yourself. We believe that the only way to reach people is to be yourself and transmit your feelings through words and music. To be an original band means to be humble and believe in your band mates’ friendship. Experience taught us that public is able to perceive this fundamental aspect that goes beyond the genre of music you play on stage. About our music, right now, we are working on the mixture of sounds between hard rock and disco music, inspired by 80’s with a preponderant bass, catchy drums and a charming voice. The final goal is to create simple music, usable but not expected.

Any advice to any up & coming bands or singers?

Our advice firstly, is to believe always in your capacities, to do not let people stop you even if you think it is not worth the pain. Secondly, surround yourself of true friends who are able to have fun on stage. Everyone must have clear in mind their own role in the band and be as passionate as you in build something worthy. If the crew do not cooperate, the ship sinks.

Truer & wiser words were never spoken so I wish them nothing but luck in everything that they do so here's to you Lady & the Clowns!

Be radically righteous & rock on!!


 

Blue Helix Interview

Hi there everyone its DJ Dizzy here once again with an interview with the lead sing Sami of the band Blue Helix I recently asked him some questions to which he happily responded.

Dizzy: How did you get started in music?

Sami: I started playing guitar in high school after seeing Nirvana's "Smells like Teen Spirit" Video.

I studied and learned guitar on without any lessons. It always came natural to me.

Dizzy: Who would you site as your biggest inspirations & influences?

 

Sami: For me Chris Cornell is my biggest vocal inspiration. While bands like The Smashing Pumpkins, Stone Temple Pilots, and others from the 90's era have always been my

primary influences.

Dizzy: What's your favorite song to play?

 

Sami: My song "Anodyne" off of our latest record Anti-Social Butterfly

Dizzy: Would you say that music has had a huge impact on your life?

 

Sami: It has saved my life. I grew up being bullied in school, and being bullied at home by an alcoholic father. So yes, music has saved me.

What kind of gigs are in store?

 

Blue Helix is touring Brazil in March.

Dizzy: Any new stuff in the works or on the way?

 

Sami: There is always music in my head. Right now we just released the newest Video for Anti-Social Butterfly so we are promoting that right now.

I am currently tracking some songs I recorded while in Brazil in November.

Well with that said be sure to be on the look out for Blue Helix you can catch their tunes on their You tube channel one song I suggest is Anti Social Butterfly which has a good meaning to it. So until then be radically righteous!

Rightoues Indignation- Lyrics

Righteous Indignation- Lyrics

What's this weird sensation?
It nothing but RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION!

(Hard Rock Instrumental)

(Verse 1)
I'm so sick of all the injustice in the world.
I already know its tough to be a girl.
tired of being misjudged becuase I was born blind
& this is one girl thats gonna speak her mind.
I have a lot to say hope I come in loud & clear
This is a message that I want you to all hear.

(Chorus)
Righteous indignation flows in my soul
I feel it surging out of control.
Tired of hiding so get ready to fight.
It's up to you to make things right.
I know its  hard but I got a life to live
& my all is all I can give.
Get ready to feel the sensation of
RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION!

Feel the sensation of righteous indignation
(Repeat 3x)

(Verse 2)
Skinny models here, there, & everywhere
Why can't knowledge make you stop & stare?
Why do we worship beauty when it only fades away?
Some things about it are all fake.
To all the stars that I once knew then
believing in you was a huge mistake.

(Repeat chorus)

FEEL THE SENSATION OF SOME
RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION!

(Repeat 3x)

(Guitar solo, Instrumental)

(Repeat chourus)
YEAH GET THE SENSATION!

Stay Frosty-Lyrics

his is a song that I wrote over the weekend that I hope you all enjoy.

 

Stay Frosty- Lyrics

(Hard Rock Instrumental)

(Verse 1)

There are times when days

can get way too tense.

Too much to do it hardly makes sense.

There are times that I want to leave life behind

But there’s a phrase I learnt to

Help ease my mind.

(Chorus)

You’ve got to stay frosty

Brave whatever comes your way

Just stay frosty

Don’t be scared to seize the day

There may be times when enough is enough

But through it all you’ve got to stay tough.

You may play it cool

But I’ll stay frosty

(Verse 2)

Its never easy trying to

Fight the enemy within

Keep on believing

Soon enough you’ll win

Don’t be scared to face adversity

This is how it has to be.

(Chorus repeats)

No way we’ll

Ever give up the fight

We find the strength to do

What’s right.

No matter what adversity

We’ll always stay frosty

(Guitar solo, Instrumental)

(Chorus repeats twice)

You may play it cool but we’ll stay frosty.
