Dreams In Color

Night Time (mix #2)

Stargazer - Eastend

This is a track by Kid Loco, "Relaxin With Cherry". It's not anywhere else on Soundcloud, and hard to find elsewhere on the internet. It's a nice jazz, lounge, hiphop song.  I love the guitar in this mix, gets the song stuck in your head.  Enjoy!

Relaxin' With Cherry by Kid Loco

CRACKS IN THE STONE
(Theme from the motion picture TRADE OF INNOCENTS)

words and music by Randy Goodrum and Timothy Hosman

verse 1
JUST BEYOND THE SKY
BEYOND THE PLACE WHERE ALL ANGELS LEARN TO FLY
WHERE NO ONE SHEDS A TEAR
HOLD MY HAND AND I WILL TAKE YOU THERE

verse 2
REACH INTO YOUR SOUL
BEYOND YOUR MEMORIES, TRY TO LET THEM GO 
AND WATCH THEM DISAPPEAR
LIKE GHOSTS THAT VANISH INTO THE AIR

chorus
A PAGE IS TURNED, THE STORY BEGINS
THE ROAD TO YOUR PARADISE UNFOLDS
LOVE'S CANDLE BURNS THROUGH STORMS THAT NEVER END
AND LIFE LIVES ON, FROM THE ASHES, REBORN (1st X only)
AS FLOWERS GROW FROM THE CRACKS IN THE STONE

verse 3
FATE HAS SET YOU FREE
TO RECONSTRUCT ALL THE PIECES OF YOUR DREAM
THE FUTURE'S STILL UNCLEAR
BUT WITH EACH STEP YOU TAKE I’LL ALWAYS BE HERE

-repeat chorus-

bridge
PIERCING THE DARKNESS, FLICKERING, BECKONING
LEADING YOU ON
last chorus

A PAGE IS TURNED, THE STORY BEGINS
THE ROAD TO YOUR PARADISE UNFOLDS
SOMEHOW LOVE'S CANDLE BURNS THROUGH STORMS THAT NEVER END
AND FROM THE DARKEST OF NIGHTS
A STRONGER SPIRIT WILL ARISE 
AS FLOWERS GROW FROM THE CRACKS IN THE STONE

Timeless pulse

Chromatic Bird

Musician, Composer, Humanitarian.

As an artist who has flourished in the comfort of Jazz, the Top 40s, R&B, and Pop, pianist Brian O'Neal exudes the versatility of a uniquely upbeat, smooth style that compliments today’s "New Jazz”. He brings an exciting and uninhibited sound to the world of jazz, making it a creative challenge for many to categorize his music. O’Neal attracts an eager following and commands the respect of his listeners domestically and abroad. "I don't listen to the radio often out of respect for my craft. I don't want to taint my vision of music with that of which we hear everyday. By shutting myself out of the listening audience, I'm not apt to emulate any sound you've heard before." O'Neal says to WFSK 88.1FM's DJ Sharon Kay.

O’Neal was born July 5, 1965, in Detroit, MI. He first discovered his passion for music at the age of six when he took his first drum lesson. Although Brian (known to his friends as "Bean") learned to play many instruments, including the saxophone, bass, and trombone; he aspired to be a professional drummer. That is until his junior year in high school, when he was asked by his band teacher to fill in on the piano for the band’s performance. Brian instantly became mesmerized with the idea of mastering such a magnificent and gentle instrument. His grandmother, "Daisy O'Neal", noticed how excited he was about playing, then bought him his first piano. O'Neal's passion for the ivories increased as he experimented with various melodies and chords; resulting in the rapid maturing of his skill. As a self taught Pianist, he later received a full musical scholarship to Alcorn State University.

Brian’s talents then soared into the world of jingles, working with companies such as the McDonald's Corporation®. His love for movies and children inspired him to compose film scores for youthful audiences around the country. In the (early/mid 80’s), as he explored his musical talent, Brian began touring with several Rock & Top 40 Bands, the Atlanta-based jazz band "Take Notes" and several Contemporary Jazz/R&B artists; some of which he served as their Assistant Music Director. O'Neal's love for music led him to share his talent by mentoring other aspiring artists, such as Universal/Motown® recording artist Kem, who has become a national Jazz/R&B sensation.

O'Neal has shared the stage with many great musicians over the past two decades including: Will Downing, Morris Day and the Time, India Arie, Ledisi, Fantasia, Angela Bofill, Stevie Wonder, Maze (featuring Frankie Beverly), Alex Bugnon, George Duke, Pieces of a Dream, Chaka Kahn, Najee, Kindred the Family Soul, and Jeff Lorber. He has also composed and produced music for several artists abroad; including UNV, Kathy Avalon, Eddie Oliver and a host of other upcoming talents.

Several of O’Neal’s accolades include being a Detroit Music Awards “Most Outstanding Composition” nominee, Mesmerized© won best song on OurStage.com, he has hailed the #1 spot on My Space charts for several months and most recently, two of his songs were selected for the play on the National Weather Channel. O'Neal's musical influences include such legends as Herbie Hancock, Pat Matheny, Prince and the great Stevie Wonder. These celebrated artists helped mold and guide his desire to pursue a career as a professional musician. As a writer, producer, composer and performer, he has a gentle and natural mastery for creating a musical oasis for his listeners.

Brian O'Neal is truly a talented (and humble) musician. He stimulates your inner appetite with melodic rhythms, and soothes your emotions with the vibrations of each instrument.

In a word … Genius.
