A Summer’s Day
For the last five years I have built a large collection of songs in the moods of summer. I decided to share a part of it with you. To make a premium selection was not an easy venture - I had planned to include all my favourite songs, but the list grew gigantic (over a hundred titles). After all I compiled a conceptual track listing (a rather scarce portion of my collection). The songs are ordered as in a daily schedule - a song for a particular hour or time of the day. It is important to listen to the songs in the predefined order. Otherwise the anachrony will spoil the experience.
Elsiane: A New Hybrid in Music
In music a hybrid is a fusion of different styles, moods, themes or even genres. The ultimate paragon is the uprising duo Elsiane. I recently stumbled upon the ingenious work of Elsieanne Caplette (vocals, keyboards) and Stephane Sotto (drums). The name of the musical project is a portmanteau of the artists’ first names (Elsi-eanne + Steph-ane = Elsiane).
