Quadron

I have just recently discovered Quadron. They describe themselves as electronic soul, and seriously this is the first of that genre that I have ever come across. And I love it. AH-mazing song lemme tell ya. Check on it lovers.
Pay attention to the different sounds and tones, when they join and separate, and the tempos and the different actual instruments or instrument simulation sounds used such as string plucks, saxophone, clarinet, etc. Awesome opossum. And, the lyrics are friggen cool and beautiful. They're so boss, yayerrr.

I especially love the soulful voice. This is the type of voice that is my favorite to hear. It's that silvery raspy voice (like Charice from Glee, Mariah, Amy Lee from Evanescence- though her voice is more ethereal which I lovelove), but it's not harsh though it can really belt it if chosen to. It's not muddled or caught, it's a clean sound which I like. To me what's always come to mind is like water flowing through a cold, smooth, and silvery pipe. Not to be mistaken with the ones that can belt it out but have the trumpet sound to it like Aretha, Dorothy Moore, or Amber Riley on Glee- not smooth, but a good different kind of harsh. Also not to be mistake with the singing voices of which sound like regular voices like Celine Dion or Beyonce- still good, but not my favorite. Those can be mixed in with what I call candy voices (you know like those really high, sweetly, unintentionally 'babyish' and clear) such as Ellie Goulding, Regina- though she has the ability to change it, her softer tones are a bit like so, Lea Michele on Glee (haha I know, there are examples from Glee, but what better way for example comparison?)- even though her voice is amazing, and so forth. And then there are the voices such as Christina Aguilera and Florence Welch from Florence & The Machine (in addition to the ones I've already listed) that fall into that great sounding voice I especially love to hear. It's like when you really listen, you can hear a icy and silky sound. I can't really find the right way to explain it. I just know I hear it and love it the most. But of course many different singers fall into more than one category especially those of which I've mentioned and of course those I have not and voices I have no mentioned. (mind you that was just a rough elaboration, lol relax.)


I was demanding to be the oh so strong
Truth be told I only want myself to tag along
Following my shadow, loaded with guilt
See what I didn't know was that, patching up only
Makes a quilt

Have to much pleasure from illusions of right
It seems id rather loose a friend then a fight
But I'm not young enough to know everything
See what I do know is
My alter ego is up-coming

I'm slippin
'Cause I cant get me off of this throne
I'm slippin
Its too much of a comfort zone
I'm slippin
'Cause I cant get me off this throne
I'm slippin'
'Cause I cant get me off of this throne its too
Much of a comfort zone

Use persuasion as my strongest approach
I preach my wisdom as a neat friendly poach
Respect you don't get, its something you owe
If your can't do what I do its cause
You reap what you sow

Taking my time sharing my week
Yeah I am good at listening when I hear myself
Speak
Once I swell attention tasted
Enough want do
Every weekend I am wasted

I'm slippin.

Once I swell attention tasted
Enough want to
Every weekend I'm wasted

Its always nice to go to your blog and explore to types of music. You have opened my mind to a lot of different types of songs.

P.S. Cheers for the comment on my post. Its true, I hate it when people label things. Im not usually the type of girl who puts a name to every situation but when people ask me whos so and so I get stuck for words and I feel like they are judging me when I cant come up with an explanation quick enough. I guess I still have to let go of how people see me and just live my life hey.

I am so surprised I have found someone who is afraid of grass too. I am especially scared of wet grass, when its rained I cant step on it at all. I would rather walk the long way to avoid it. It literally gets my heart palpitating whenever I have to step on it. Strange yet true.
