No, this post isn't about midgets, it's about an artist I found a while back while I was on Pandora, all of the music in this particular station was passing by without leaving the slightest impression on me or motivating me to even check the artist. My ears were in "not really listening mode" when out of nowhere, an interesting intro finally caught my ear, as the intro continued on I feared the thought of this being another flop, until the beat kicked in with a strong beat backing and piano that gave me a sort of "House" (the tv show) vibe because the intro song (Massive Attack's Teardrop) and "Basique" both have a downtempo beat as well as use of piano. I immediately listened to his other tracks in hopes that it wasn't a one hit wonder and sure enough he wasn't, the rest of his songs caught and held my attention as I listened and relaxed to the downtempo beats and various sounds that I now often study to. He just released a new album so I'll have to get around to listening to that;
Compare the two:
Massive Attack- Teardrop (ignore the singing and listen to everything else)
Litlle People-Basique (it's slightly more upbeat than Teardrop)
same? different? is it just me?
This one the piano caught my attention
More upbeat than some of the others
