Let's Take A Ride

I like to compose in different styles, deeply influenced by classical music, especially Baroque. I love soul, funk, jazzy rock and pop.

Hello and thank you for dropping by.

Thank you very much to everyone who takes the time to listen, like and share my noises. I am extremely grateful. My apologies if I take a little while to respond to those that leave nice comments.

I like listening to music, making simple, tunes when I have time, and generally faffing about in an inefficient manner. Hopefully you might like something on offer here. 

I use a Hinkler Cigar Box guitar (about $30 from Aldi, great fun), a Flying V ukulele, a couple of old keyboards, other bits and bobs, and a Yamaha tenor saxophone.

Greetings! We are Jonny Hummingbird and Shelley Meadowlark, an acoustic duo available for hire that just loves to share great songs for people. Our style is an odd mix of genres, and our song list ranges from timeless pop, to folk, country, bluegrass, gospel, and even a couple of 15th century numbers! We play live at a variety of venues, including restaurants, lounges, festivals, fundraisers, church functions, funerals, private parties, and the occasional private acousticism for those suffering persistent electric earworms. :-)
Seriously though, we are hobby musicians who just hope we can bring some joy to those who hear our music. Will be slowly adding songs to this page. Thank you for listening.
P.S.  Check out our website at the link below.  You can also hear some of  Jonny's original tracks at the link to his Soundcloud. Cheers!

Thank you for visiting my page. Blessings to you always, Jeffrey￼

ZARINE (Dj Zarine) is one of the drum & bass DJs and producers whose work has brought considerable popularity to this style.
Starting his career in 97, he started promoting the Jump Up style in Russia. This always positive and open person still carries the culture of broken rhythms to the masses.

He received a classical music education. He studied conducting. He also plays guitar (played death metal, hardcore, techno death, was a session guitarist.) Sound engineer, worked with many well-known musicians, both foreign (Henry Rollins Band, Young Gods, Braut schlägt im Auge), and Russian, such as: the King and the Jester, Bricks, Torba-na-Kruche, Nom, TV, Calibri, Two Planes, Brigade row, Spitfire, and others.

His creative pseudonym, the female name ZARINE, owes his love for decadence, and the eponymous name of one of his projects-ZARINE (sarin) with the crossed-out letter " E " at the end. In 1996, after playing his first ever set at the CLEO club, he decided to keep the name.

The first single, "DnB Wize", was recorded in 1999 and released as a compilation album on a no-longer-existing foreign label. This was followed by releases - "Drunk n Bass" and "Art Core", "Eazy Drums" - released on the now-defunct KDK records 

Later there were releases on "Dj Parade", "World of the Drum n bass" - Dj SS took the single "GO ON" recorded together with Liza K. Audio design of the magazine "SPB. RU". Release of the album "Leading the rats". Working with Goldie, Aphrodite.

To date, singles have been released on Italian, French, German, and English labels.

EP "Blind fury / Water party", "Ghost of the Rock n roll", "Atmos robotics", " May Be Vibes? (feat. PropheC)". Remixes of DnB monsters, Future Cut, Konflict, Posij, Ray Keith, Huge, Gridlock, Keaton, as well as Fugees, Eminem

Today, ZARINE is the owner of the "HS Recordings" label. He is a resident of the English radio resource MIXCLOUD, and enjoys the support of the Russian radio Record.
