Friday Tracks: James Blake

If I could sum up James Blake’s latest track “Retrograde” in one word, it would have to be ASTOUNDING!  Why you might be asking? First off, Blake’s voice oozes out soulful and sultry verses that leave you intrigued for more.  Upon first listen, I was reeled in by the bluesy tone of the song as Blake’s voice hauntingly seals the deal on my eardrums.  Blake is clearly talented in his vocal range which is why this video made it to my Friday Tracks List!

Enjoy the video and give me your feedback and comments below, on the UTT Fan Page, and at the Feedback Hub .

Much Love,

Addictions of a Music Junkie

If you’re a person who wakes up every morning craving the intoxicating elements of a beat, chorus, lyric, or rhythm to jumpstart your day…then consider yourself a bonafide Music Junkie!  Being a Music Junkie is not just a label to describe musically addicted people, it’s a lifestyle and one that our fellow MJ Medina makes entertaining and delightful throughout her video “Addiction”.

Medina is one of my favorite dance artists and before I even saw the video, I was already addicted to the song.  The video  provides a wonderful visual of the life a Music Junkie experiences which would make anyone want a little taste of it.  Until that happens, savor every moment of this video and rest assured that you’re not the only one who’s a slave to the music!

Much Love,
