Lyrics
                I remember laughing,singing until the break of dawn
                talking,drinking playing guitar,and then we'd sing some more

               Chorus 
                I miss you my dear
                I wish you were here
                Ray of sunshine
                I miss you Ray
                Since you've been gone
                
                you taught me my first licks
                you taught me how to fingerpick

                I miss your jokes
                I haven't heard a good one for years
                Your sparkling eyes
                Your kindly smile
                 We wont forget your glorious beard

                          repeat chorus
             
                Bridge
    
                Since you've been gone
                The whole world got a little darker
                Since you've been gone
                The people are sadder but the phones are smarter
                 Rest Peacefully my friend
                 Until we meet again

                         Chorus 

                I miss you my dear
                I wish you were here
                Ray of sunshine
                I miss you ray ,since you've been gone
     
                You taught me my first licks
                You taught me how to fingerpick

Once Upon a Dream

Once Upon a Dream (From “Maleficent”/Young Ruffian Remix)

Forgive Me

Lyrics:
Im receiving the checks
Hits me like DMT and the rest
and plants like these i know i'm blesses
everything just a fucked up mess

I don't wanna love you from far anymore
the scene on my screen is torture for sure
me all alone i'm such a bore
done with dreaming from you on the shore

Hide my head deep in your chest
Hits me like DMT and the rest
Plants like these I know were blesses
to get us through this fucked up mess

It happens for reasons 
Just Like the Four Seasons
We danced on dead leaves and
We live from the trees
N'
It happened for a reason 
Just Like the four Seasons
We danced on dead leaves and
We know that it treason 

Im receiving the checks
Hits me like DMT and the rest
and plants like these i know i'm blesses
everything just a fucked up mess

We live from, we live from .. the trees

We danced on, We danced on, We danced on, Dead Leaves and
We Live from, We Live From, We Live from

I don't wanna love you from far anymore
the scene on my screen is torture for sure
me all alone i'm such a bore
done with dreaming from you on the shore

Hide my head deep in your chest
Hits me like DMT and the rest
Plants like these I know were blesses
to get us through this fucked up mess

It happens for reasons 
Just Like the Four Seasons
We danced on dead leaves and
We live from the trees
N'
It happened for a reason 
Just Like the four Seasons
We danced on dead leaves and
We know that it treason

Four Seasons

Pre-order CD/Vinyl: http://smarturl.it/Broussard.Preorder
iTunes: http://smarturl.it/Broussard.iTunes

A Life Worth Living, Broussard’s sixth studio album, is a collection of ballads and soul-gut rockers that tell personal stories of his life experiences surrounding home, family, relationships and community.  From the charged metaphor of the opening track and lead single “Hurricane Heart,” to the closing existential lament “I’ll never Know,” Broussard gets really close to the bone on this record—so close, in fact, that there seems to be no distance between himself and these songs, each of them drawn from the very fabric of his life.

Arnold Kasar is a musical jack of all trades: in countless projects around the Berlin based label Sonar Kollektiv, the musician grown in the southern area of the picturesque Black Forest left his traces, among them Nylon, AtomHockey or with Volksbühne-player and latest Internet-Hype Friedrich Liechtenstein („Supergeil“). 
However, the trained sound-engineer is also capable of going solo, as he proved with his solo debut „The Piano Has Been Smoking“ in 2012. Now he returned to his first instrument and his timing couldn't be better, since the piano returned to new strength in the music world, as the numerous releases of pianists in the past few years have shown.

„I really hope that the timing is good, but I can't influence it. At last I do it for my own. When I started doing music as Kasar back in 2010, I just didn't know Nils Frahm or Brandt Brauer Frick. All these people weren't on the spot by then. I listened to Gonzales and of course Hauschka and Craig Armstrong were there, too. Yann Tiersen was totally famous at that time“, the pianist explains his view on his colleagues when he started making music by himself. But, with releasing his second album „Walk On“ at this point, he didn't intend to flirt with a hype. The piano, which has accompanied Arnold Kasar from his childhood on, always just fell out of the recordings in the past. Due to this enduring relationship to his first instrument he got bored of it. Instead, he preferred to dedicate himself to sample-based electronic music with his friend Friedrich Liechtenstein or making Nu Jazz in several musical projects around the world-famous Berlin based Sonar Kollektiv (home to Jazzanova, The Black Seeds or Solomun). But sooner or later the piano had to return to the centre of attention.

That was in 2010: at that point the work on the new LP „The Piano Has Been Smoking“ had started, being released in 2012 and fully concentrating around the piano. By then Kasar already used the technique of the prepared piano, which once was introduced by John Cage and nowadays is excessively used by Hauschka, among others. For this Kasar used erasers, tea bags or patches to manipulate the sound of the piano and to bring out unheard and exciting tones of his instrument. Only one song, the designated single „Put A Light On Me“, was supposed to have a vocal track, but after he didn't find the right voice for it, he simply sang it himself. Like this, for the first time the world got to hear the dark and melancholic timbre of Arnold Kasar. The desired airplay (i.a. Austrian „FM4“ or Berlin's „RBB RadioEins“) was achieved easily and from that moment on Kasar was delighted by the idea of singing on his own productions, since he had closed the chapter of producing an album on a prepared piano anyway. For this reason the comparison with an artist such as Hauschka, who made this technique the concept of his own creative work, is merely adequate. Kasar rather walks on, restless and always willing to try something new.

But this doesn't mean that he has to quit it completely: also on „Walk On“ one finds a few pieces with the support of the prepared piano, but this time the singing is clearly in the foreground. Like this, the whole vibe of the record changes: „I'd say the last record was way more a city record“ referring to the by then used techno-elements, for example, „and the new one is a record for the countryside.“, especially inspired by Arthur Russell's most intimate album „World Of Echo“. On this record the composer who rose to cult status in the past years leaves the disco era behind him and presents a fragile artist using voice, cello and a lot of reverb only: „A song like „So Called Lover“ mainly emerged from Arthur Russell listening sessions“, Kasar tells full of admiration for the musician who died of AIDS in 1992.

Other role models are surprising as well as comprehensible: „I like singers like the early Manfred Krug a lot, this warm and tender voice – of course, in German, but the way he sang – or Japan's singer David Sylvian, those were the things I acted on. Much songwriting-inspiration came from Wilco, Nick Drake, Aimée Mann or also Bill Callahan.

But how Kasar came to the definition „countryside record“ is a story of its own: „It is way more singing this time, that's a huge leap, it's much less electronics and there's more space. It's less town and much more landscape and for me it really is this countryside record. „Jungholz“ for example is the name of a village in the southern Black Forest, „Ödland“ is the name of the highest mountain in that area and „Ein Engel Verschwand“ is an adaptation of another village's name there called „Engelschwand“. „So Called Lover“ takes place in „a shady town in the shore“, which in a way is a reference to the Rhine, which could be the mentioned river, and this „whipping willow“, all these are things coming out of my memories, since I originate from that area. It's not autobiographic but I simply imagined how it was back then, sitting under the willow by the river. Partly I recorded the songs right there: „Ein Engel Verschwand“, „Jungholz“ and „Ödland“ and nearly all playbacks were recorded on the piano on which I practiced when I was a child. I always hated it to play this piano: a Hohner, awful sound, but once you used the felt pedal it got such an odd sound, really strange – that's not the sound of a great Steinway, but small and odd.“ So all of this isn't supposed to be autobiographic but without all these experiences Kasar gained in the depths of the southern Black Forest, „Walk On“ probably would never have come into being.

The song that gave the album its title was the first Kasar had written for „Walk On“, right after the release of his debut record. At this stage the theatre art graduate was in a downright stream of composing. Many songs were quickly outlined, however he took ages to get to the finished product. The production phase lasted – with interruptions – from spring 2012 to fall 2013. And since February this year the record is waiting to be thrown onto the market, but haste makes waste. Songs like those you find on „Walk On“, where the piano sounds like raindrops rolling down the scale, while there's an electronic tempest in the background („Ödland“), or which are so fragile they bring tears to your eyes („Care“) simply have to be released in the dying season.

But who thinks that everything on this album is melancholic and sad is proven wrong by „Dawning“, which isn't at all like the rest of the LP: with a jagged new wave beat, a sexy 80s sounding sax and an optimistic chorus, Kasar also shows his up-tempo side and gives some unmissable signs towards radio airplay.

A whole lot slower is the collaboration with long-time friend Lisa Bassenge, singer of Nu Jazz outfit Micatone and Kasar's colleague at Nylon. Together they sing the hypnotic „Dance To The Mallet“, which starts off jazzy, but also offers itself – with its electronic substructure – as a huge playground for remixers. However, the way this liaison came up is rather unspectacular: „One time we went out for dinner and I told her about the album I was working on and there she immediately offered her help if I needed some. So a few months later I called her and played the song to her and she instantly liked it. She wrote the lyrics to it and then we quickly recorded it in one take. Her musical director Paul Kleber is also involved in the song „You“ and Sebastian Borkowski from Jazzanova plays sax in another song. So it's sort of all around the Sonar Kollektiv and Micatone”. It stays all in the family.

Frohlocker’s third maxi, as usual released on Galopp Records. The track consists of dominant, dubby brass and a rock’n’roll like briskly beat. 

Hipbrass

Time has come for Frohlocker’s next strike! Circus is a fluffy breakbeat tune with an ear on detail – frisky brass, low key percussion, lovely samples – and with a bassline that underlines its club qualities.

Circus

The days are getting shorter and the nights colder. In this dark season the Frohlocker are warming up the clubs and lounges with their pleasently well‐tempered sound. In the titletrack "Dunkelgold” orchestral brass and a deep bassline are carrying the voice of Chava Alberstein to the dancefloor.

Dunkelgold

"Seldanz” is an heavy bass‐stressed clubtrack with oriental flavour

The self-titled debut that started it all has turned ten.

At the dawn of the new millennium, songwriter, producer, and multi- instrumentalist Klayton created Celldweller, a ground-breaking aural entity for the next age. Thriving on originality, Celldweller cross-bred electronic styles such as Drum'n'Bass and Psy-Trance with modern Alternative Rock and Metal on his self-titled debut, released independently in 2003.

The Celldweller album met with critical acclaim while climbing to #17 on the Billboard Internet Sales Chart. Celldweller gained Top 40 Metal Radio charting with the track “I Believe You” pulling into a solid 11th place on the R&R Alternative Specialty Show Chart. Achieving a feat shared by only an elite handful of albums, every song on Celldweller was eventually licensed for use in popular media. These songs were heard in movie trailers, TV shows, and games such as Spider Man 2, Constantine, Crackdown, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Enter the Matrix, CSI, UFC, The Shield, and more.

Now, Celldweller has been reissued to celebrate the tenth anniversary of its release with updated artwork and a second disc of remixes, demos, and previously unheard rarities (all remastered for this release). While Klayton busies himself in his Detroit studio preparing the future of Celldweller for 2013, celebrate the past with this monumental work.
