Music Monday - I'm all about that bass!


I am a lover of music, and by now you probably know that I'm into songs that have a lot  of inspirational lyrics, but I'll have you know that I'm also a  huge fan of live music, even without any lyrics , it's just amazing how a band of musicians playing totally different instruments can put together a beautiful piece  of organized noise. So you can sort of say I like the finer details which brings me to my favourite instrument; the bass guitar, you know when  musicians take solos in a song, they mostly steer away from what they were originally playing just to show off how many  keys they play at once or just how quickly they can hit the next cymbal... The bass player just needs to have all the other instruments quiet and he can continue playing the same line he played the whole song and believe you me the crowd will go mad  I don't know why, but the sound of this instrument just goes in deep, okay I think I've said enough now 

Here's something you might find interesting about me. 

I love listening to the bass guitar

I love watching drummers play 

I would really love to play piano 


Today's post is about a song that I think has a really cool bass line. You need to hear the song right up until the last second to to find out what I mean. 

I once made a musician friend of mine listen to this song and he said 

"It sounds so fat" ( that is actually a good term) 


Just google search Beatenberg - Ithaca 


 Here's a picture of one of my favourite bass players caught in action, by yours truly

LET THE MUSIC PENETRATE

Ever looked at the way someone had a glow on their face after hearing a song lyric that they can relate to? I find joy in watching that, seeing that expression on someone’s face, it's just thrilling. People listen to all types of music and lyrics can mean something totally different to someone after just one life event. "When the sound resonates, the music penetrates" that’s a quote i saw somewhere, I don’t remember by who, but it's just so true, when you can hear the sound of the music filling up a certain space, either through your headphones or the way the music fills up a closed arena at the music concert, that’s around the time when the music penetrates, yes, when the vocals together and instrument arrangement, whether separate or combined  Hits deep within and fill your soul... Well that what the music I listen to does to me. So here I am sharing that type of music Loyiso Bala - Nothing to lose If you follow me on Snapchat you would

Cover Girl

No no, I haven't landed a magazine cover, at least not yet... Remember that full skirt I told you I was dying about  here   it's finally here. I can't get over its perfect fit, the material and just how edgy it is. The title is inspired by the magazine cover design on the skirt, and here's a little secret, I actually wore my off-the-shoulder dress as top and it worked perfectly! I wore my favorite my block heel sandals to finish off this ladylike look. This is one outfit that reminds me that I can really put on the Ritz when I want to. Skirt: Touch of bling at Fashion Kraal| Top/dress: Factorie| Shoes:Rubi | Bag: gifted (sissy boy)
