29/5/15 - Different Genres of Music

A lot of people like pop music right? That's probably why it's called pop, shortened from popular... Some people like rock or indie or country okay? So what about the people who don't like any of them? I personally listen to Latin music and Electronic Dance Music. Some of my absolute favourite Latin songs are by Spanish Singer/Songwriter Mario Jefferson. No Lo Ves is a great Spanish one while Not Over You and L-U-C-K-Y are really good English ones.

 There is also the genres of music that not many people like. Classical, Opera, Jazz, Blues etc but some of them have some amazing artists like Robert Lockwood Jr and BB King. Both amazing blues artists.

Another type of music, although it's not really counted as a type of music, is slow, depressing, deep music. All my playlists are songs about death, they are from Pretty Little Liars though... I suppose any slow song could be counted as depressing right? Well my top 5 slow/depressing songs are:

  1. Gemma Hayes - Wicked Game
  2. The Devil Within - Digital Daggers
  3. Happiness -The Fray
  4. We Need To Be Loved - Anthony Starble
  5. Without You - Tobias Jesso Jr
So here's all the links to things I mentioned that you should check out:

28/05/2015 - Down By The River, TV Shows and Glee Season 6

Hey Guys! So a couple of days ago I went for a walk down near this beautiful river. The sun bounced off the top of it and the wind made the trees sway. It was incredible. I was listening to this song and it was just like paradise so I thought I'd share it with you. I was listening to Orion by Jordan MKL and in the 3 minutes and 47 seconds it was on, I felt so at peace with myself and nature really.  I found this song from Kevin McHale's Soundcloud account and every time I hear it, I get so chilled and it's an amazing song so you should listen to it Jordan MKL - Orion on Souncloud

Onto another thing, a lot of people ask me where I find my music and mostly its from TV shows and films.. Not the obvious Glee, Pitch Perfect and X Factor but Pretty Little Liars and The Vampire Diaries. Three of my favourite songs are from them two shows: Details by Sleeperstar from TVD, The Devil Within by The Digital Daggers from PLL and Begin Again by Rachel Platten from the 100th episode of Pretty Little Liars, Miss Me x100 (one of my personal favourites from the show). A really good place to find the names of songs you hear on TV shows is TuneFind. It has practically every TV show with a soundtrack. All you do is type in the TV show, find you series and episode and look for your song. TuneFind - Find Music From TV and Movies

Also, Glee is back on tonight in the UK. The sixth and final season airs at 9pm and if you already watch it, awesome. If you don't, but love music, I really recommend you do watch it. It's not what everyone makes it out to be. It teaches you a lot about people and life as well as it just being a group of people singing songs and dancing around.

Finally, my top 5 songs for this week are -

  1. Flashlight - Jessie J
  2. Want To Want Me - Jason Derulo
  3. All Cried Out - Blonde ft Alex Newell
  4. Avalanche - Nick Jonas ft Demi Lovato
  5. Ghost Town - Adam Lambert

Introduction To J.GMusic

Hi Guys, so basically, we are two music lovers who wanted to share our current favourite artists, songs and well everything music with you. We'll post our ideas and thoughts on award shows e.g. Teen Choice Awards, Billboard Music Awards etc. We'll post about our favourite places to go and listen to certain songs, new music, songs and artists that most people won't know. They'll be songs for people at any age that like any genre. So not only will this have new music by One Direction or Ariana Grande or Eminem, but will also have music by Metallica, Slipknot, Billy Joel or Lady Antebellum. No matter what music you like, this will have something for you. And maybe you'll find something that don't usually listen to and love it.
