Demi Holborn is an exceptionally talented young lady with an extraordinarily powerful and distinctive voice. Her new single "If I Could" is a beautiful song Co-Written by Demi herself. With a musical background honed in her homeland of South Wales, the starting point for Demi’s musical career began when she entered a BBC competition in 2001 for the chance to sing at the Millennium Stadium. Her performance blew the judges away and she went on to win the competition getting the opportunity to perform alongside massive UK acts like Charlotte Church, S Club 7, Blue, Atomic Kitten, A1 and many more.
 
The good news just kept coming when unbeknown to Demi, her brother sent a video tape of her singing into GMTV’s Tot Stars competition in 2002. The competition was a massive success with 7,000 young hopefuls entering, and Demi went on to win the competition hands down, triumphing with 58% of the 200,000 public votes. The prize was a major recording contract and a scholarship at Barbara Speak Stage School.
 
Demi went on to release her debut double A-Side single ‘I’d Like To Teach The World To Sing’ / ‘My Boy’, which rocketed up the UK Top 40 charts. Along with the single came an unexpected achievement, she became the youngest entrant to have a Top 40 hit at just 10 years of age, stripping the title from Lena Zavaroni who had previously held it for 28 years. To this day Demi still retains this record.
 
Demi has gone on to perform in front of thousands of people all around the country alongside many of the UK’s top music artists. This included singing at Party in the Park where she got to perform alongside Daniel Bedingfield, Busted, Hear’Say, Blue, Liberty X, Darius and many others.
 
Her gorgeous looks and effervescent personality have made her a focus of the media for many years. Without doubt though, it is her breathtaking voice and ability to perform at the highest level that has always made her stand out as a star. The decision to blend luscious, rich and dynamic orchestral arrangements with modern contemporary rhythms and synths, creates a genre-breaking classical cross-over blend that has never been attempted before, making this an exciting and groundbreaking release.
 
Demi’s unique twist upon these modern classics may at first seem unusual. Yet this will all pale into insignificance once they hear her exquisite and explosive vocal interpretations. With her heavenly rendition of Abba’s pop classic ‘Eagle’, a divine reworking of the never released (in the UK) but massive crowd favourite ‘Home By The Sea’ by Genesis, along with the haunting sound of the brand new song ‘Angel’, she is set to change the face of modern music as we know it.
 
With all the unpredictability in the world we currently live in, there is one certainty that we can all rely on for 2012. Demi Holborn will without a doubt touch many millions of peoples hearts with her music, and go on to have a hugely successful music career for many years to come.

Sound Card Upgrade sounds like what azure would taste like if azure could be tasted. The soundscape of SCU is deeply rooted in electronica, with elements of pop, synth, and punk. Pepper in some occasional rhythm guitar and a 1980's Casio and you got yourself a nice ear-salad.

SCU is experimental; please don't rely on consistency in sound or scheduling. We will put tunes out to y'all as we [slowly] make them. There is an album in the works (working title is Tranquilizer) but please, don't hold your breath.

A little more info for you creepers: Sound Card Upgrade is a musical side project lead by hobby-collector extraordinaire, JK Steen. Just do an alta vista search.

A few years ago, singer-songwriter Lara James asked herself a simple but bold question: Why wouldn’t I? She was on the couch watching a reality show on singers and reflecting on her unlived life as a musician. She was asking herself why she didn’t pursue being an artist.

In private moments during her high school years, Lara wrote songs that lived inside her heart and mind as blissful catharsis from the complexities of adolescence.  They sounded good to her, but she never shared these secret and sacred little gems. Years went by and life blessed her with a healthy, happy, and wonderful family. She was overjoyed, but there was always songs singing softly within her. And then one day she couldn’t ignore them any longer. 

“I had this moment where I believed if I sang, doors would open. I just felt this fate,” the Spokane, Washington-based singer-songwriter confides. 

Appropriately, she calls her smoldering debut EP Why Wouldn’t I? (EUS Records/A division of Emphatic Artists Association).  “The title is about the process of making the EP, the idea of ‘Why wouldn’t I got out and do this?,’” she affirms. 

Lara’s musicality is focused and pristine, a mix of sensual classic sounds and modern, adult contemporary polish. It’s an aesthetic that calls to mind such artists as Shania Twain, Sara Bareilles, Norah Jones, Miranda Lambert, and Sarah Vaughan. But though it’s an evocative aesthetic, her artistry exudes a naturalness, a grace. “I love those artists,” she says of those she is frequently compared to. “But I just rely on who I am as person to create my music.”

Fate did intervene when Lara went online looking for a voice coach and found an LA-based producer/indie label owner that happened to be in the Spokane area spending time with his family. That was Jake Schaefer, and, in addition to vocal coaching, he became Lara’s creative collaborator, cheerleader, friend, and producer.  

Lara entered her music journey bravely. Her second studio session was at famed Capitol Studios singing "I'll Be Home For Christmas" duet style with John Bobek. “I remember there were huge portraits of Sinatra and the Beach Boys, and I got a chance to see the mic Sinatra loved using,” she recalls. 

Embracing a new era of fevered creativity, she wrote four new songs for the EP (the fifth song is a cover of Garth Brooks' “The Thunder Rolls”).“I would sing things as I did dishes and laundry, and took the kids to school. I would get a melody in my head and work it out over and over while my kids got tired of hearing it,” she says laughing.

Why Wouldn’t I? introduces a broad array of sensibilities that reflect Lara’s multi-dimensional talents. The breathtaking “Tick Tock” seemingly roils with steamy innuendo like a sultry Patsy Cline track, but is in fact born from far a more innocent sentiment. “That’s about my kids waking me up at 5:30 morning and me wanting to go back to bed, but I hear the clock and know I have to get up!” she says. The haunting ballad “Love Worth Fighting For” valiantly and poetically describes the complexities of marriage.  Here she sings: Sometimes it’s hard to rise above the noise, to see past this cloud of pain in my heart/Just when I feel like giving up and letting go, there you are with your arms wide open. And “Why Wouldn’t I” is euphoric pop track that outlines the manifesto that made this all happen.

Thinking back on her timeline as a creative person, Lara says: “I used to be shy and private, but now everything in me wants to run and take this places. I feel like I keep jumping off cliffs, and there is always a lifeline below.”

Happy Birthday Rog (my D-50!). 30 this year and still got him.

Not doing my music studies so much these days, am trying to finish my first novel, how cool..?! Was at first meant to be a short ten page story, then it somehow became a 28,400-500 novella. Left it for around four years and then re-started it again last year. Have got to 75,723 words now, hope to reach 90 thou' and then stop. Got the sequel underway in my head, too. Aswell as another 'Space book'. Also, a 'Ghost' story too (based on personal experiences, ooh!). Maybe writing a book is easier to do than learn Mr. Mozart, Ja? (Gotta love ya, Wolfie!).
Can't really write (as you can probably tell from this little piece, I know!). Have Dyslexia and/Or Dyspraxia.  Although haven't had any tests, but somethings going on inside my head. Maybe HDHD too? God knows.
Will keep my finger in, as regards the music but badly need lessons and shouldn't just rely on 'Natural talent'. Just probably get some lessons in 'How to write proper' too. (Joke!).
Title: 'Moon over Earth'. Genre: Sci-fi. Would have to be, wiv a title like that, hey?

All the songs on here are free to download.
There's something in there, somewhere! Enjoy! :-)

... And ty to everyone who has re-posted my little tunes, quality! Cheers, merci, danke! :-)

Hi, thanks for looking in. What you have here are mainly live Piano pieces, Classical, I guess (with a Jazz style numbers in there, too). 'A soundtrack vision' and 'Variations on a theme' were both recorded using my Yamaha sy85 synthesiser as my control keyboard. The rest were recorded using my Goldstar GMK-49 midi keyboard. 
Update2:
Have been writing, rehearsing playing more with different Piano sounds of late, but did start five or so song ideas (Only to lose them). Then I had two drum tracks (or was it three?) but then lost those, aswell! Have now got three basic drum tracks on the go, using live recorded drum kits and converted into rex files, loops, so I'll try and not lose those, hey? I've now lost them also. "Do what?!" Yes, exactly. Not to worry, I guess.
For now, am enjoying playing my Piano sounds, recording them and seeing what I come up with.
Influences:
Queen, Ultravox, Gary Numan, O.M.D. Jean-Michel Jarre, Harry-Boy (Connick Jnr) Mr. Bowie and a certain 'fabfour' too! Also, RS (Rick Springfield, and early boyhood hero of mine!). The soundtrack fellas, Lalo Schifrin and Ennio Morricone. Oh, and some Classical too. I first played a little J.S. Bach on my old Bontempi organ when I was a lot younger but my style is probably nearer to the 'Classical' era, Mr. Mozart etc. That reminds me, I must look up Haydn soon, too.
Buddy Holly, The Shadows, System F, Ferry Corsten, The Prodigy, Underworld and Primal Scream.

Update 03.
Now have Abelton live 9 and a new control keyboard, a Novation Impulse 61.

Equipment:
Roland D-50, Yamaha SY85, Goldstar GMK 49, Novation Impulse 61, Roland TR-626, Yamaha QX5 sequencer, Fostex 160 MultiTracker.
Software: Reason 8ish, Abelton Live 9 suite. Oh and a wee little, tiny of a keyboard (which is actually quite useful!) a Akai LPK 25. There, 'andsome!
With honourable mentions to Cecil, my Casio CZ-3000 keyboard and Basil, my Boss DR-220A Dr. Rhythm drum machine. (Should never have sold them, really).
P.S. Even had quite some difficulty in writing this down, this profile. God, my brain.
Update, yet again. 03:33. 13/01/2022. Still, still trying to finish my book but work keeps getting in the way (am on 'Nights', knackered!). Now have Reason 12, it's good, but I only 'Dabble'.

P.S. Just discovered Deep purple. I know, at least thirty years too late! Lovely!

Every year thousands of people are reported missing in Ireland.
Thankfully the vast majority of these people are successfully traced, but there is also the harsh reality that many families are left with an empty space in their home, a hole in their hearts and an endless stream of unanswered questions because for some families, their loved one remains missing . 
MISS (Missing in Ireland Support Service) is a non-profit organisation who operate the National Missing Persons Hotline and provide essential resources, emotional support and hope to the families of those missing. MISS work closely with An Garda Siochana and community based organisations to provide these vital services and also to try raise awareness of missing people in Ireland. MISS rely on the generosity of the publicto support their services, which are provided by a dedicated team free of charge to families of those missing.
In an act of solidarity with families of those missing and as a way of raising awareness and much needed funds for this essential service, critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Don Mescall and 12 year old Olivia Burke both wrote and recorded tracks with the title “Missing” unknown to each other. Now Don and Olivia are joining forces and releasing their singles together for MISS.
