We are back! It's been a while since we had a blog. so many reasons why I could write. For a part Carl and I had a hard time and a very difficult time. The love of my life had 2 times covid and later on also omicron. I was to busy with thinking of my man, and more so worried, that I was not able to write at that time. He lost his lung function for a whole lot. […]
Blood Angel A band to remember, no matter what you don't, once you've heard of them. It's a German band and actually known in the dark scene. This German-speaking band, with partly male, and partly female vocals, is combined with a lot of electronic sounds. The music style is somewhere in between EBM and Darkwave, but there are also Techno and Eurodance influences audible. Usually, Blutengel's music is put in the Futurepop box. The female parts are performed by Kati […]
Synth-Pop! Synthpop is actual a short for synthesizer pop, also called techno-pop. It's also a subgenre of New Wave music. I must admit although I know a lot of music, this was completely different for me. It intrigued me partly because of the style of music and singing. One of the first bands I discovered was Muse. In many of their songs you hear indeed the real synthesizer pop, with a tendency towards techno but also rock, I think it's […]
Songs about love and dancing. Nothing has ever been more sung about than love. It can even be traced back to the Middle Ages. Gentlemen sang songs to their beloved even in front of their balconies. There are also so many styles to consider here. Also, the love songs were sung when couples in love went dancing. You had parks where lovers would gather, to celebrate their love they often took their music with them. Romantically warm and the heart […]
Volbeat was formed in 2001 after frontman Michael Poulsen left his previous band, Dominus. Their style is somewhere between heavy metal and rockabilly. Their main influences are Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Metallica. Metallica is also mentioned in their song "Wild Rover of Hell". The third line of the first verse reads: "The stereo pumping Metallica tunes, Ride The Lightning oh yeah!". In 2005 they released their first album entitled The Strength/The Sound/The Songs. They reached number eighteen in the […]
Music source of inspiration for eroticism Some music styles can feed eroticism. Let's face it, sensuality can contain a source of love, but can certainly be stimulated by certain music styles. Consider, for example, Enigma. If you listen carefully, you will imagine yourself in tropical places and you will be sensually seduced. I will elaborate on this further, Enigma for a long time it was the darling of the public. Cretu conceived the Enigma project while working in Germany, but […]
Way back in time, the blues arose. Actually, a music style that offers you the opportunity to experiment in which you can let your voice go in all directions. The blues originated in the slave era, between 1860 and 1900. Slaves from Africa in the South of the United States - including in the Mississippi Delta, between Memphis and New Orleans). The main musical sources that contributed to the origin of the blues are the religious songs (gospels, Negro spirituals), […]
Let's not think that music only makes friends. Some styles create aggression and friends can easily become enemies. One can think of the former house, which has now become hardcore, hard trance and so on. Yet when you think further, in my view it is not so much the music that causes it, but the use of many kinds of drugs, also in combination with abundant alcohol. I often wonder, what's the fun about this? People apparently need to get […]
