Blackpink Delivers Stellar Performance @ Coachella 2019

0
BLACKPINK made history by being the first K-POP girl group to ever perform at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, which further cemented their status as one of the biggest international girl groups on the scene. They killed it by delivering their top hits “Forever Young” and “Kill This Love.” Rosé said to the crowd, “Coming all the way from South Korea, we didn’t know what to expect. Obviously, we are from two very different worlds, but tonight, I think that music brings us together as one.” See full performance below:

Watch Aphex Twin Perform In NYC

0
Aphex Twin has only played 3 shows in the US in the past 10 years, so you can imagine how big this was for his fans. This legend of a producer played in New York City at Avant Gardener, and will also perform at Coachella. As for the show in NYC, here’s what brooklynvegan had on it:
He went on around 11 PM last night and played a 90 minute set with an awesomely trippy light show that included stuff from the ’90s up through his most recent album, Syro, and unreleased material. The crowd was very into it, and part of Aphex Twin’s visuals included projecting audience members’ faces onto the video monitors on stage. Sensory overload. Richard D James didn’t say a word the whole night, not that anyone expected him to, but he did come back right after his intense set to give the crowd a thumbs up.

JAUZ has been teasing his new “Baby Shark” remix and he finally debut the remix at Coachella on the big stage in front of the LIVE stream. Pretty hilarious that he took “Baby Shark” into Darude “Sandstorm,” pretty much just breaking the fourth wall there and saying he knows he was throwing down some silliness.

SOMEHOW THE EDM STAGE IS BIGGER THIS YEAR #Coachella

And @Jauzofficial will win the “LOL MEMES ARE FUNNY GET IT” joke for his #BabyShark remix at @Coachella. Now into Darude “Sandstorm” and crowd didn’t skip a beat dropping hard into that one. Kids these days. pic.twitter.com/DrRYan6UPJ — LIVE music blog (@livemusicblog) April 13, 2019 We’ll have the official video once we see it posted, no doubt an official VIP candidate for someone to drop by Sunday.

Geddy Lee Joins Claypool Lennon Delirium For The Beatles Classic “Tomorrow Never Knows”

0
The Claypool Lennon Delirium kicked off their tour this week at Danforth Music Hall in Toronto, Ontario. They welcomed Rush bassist Geddy Lee to the stage to play along with the band. Someone got footage of the jam. Check it out below. Les Claypool shared a heartfelt note on his social channels about how this moment was a bit of a “pinnacle moment” for him. In all of the years that Primus honored Rush, like teasing “YYZ” on their recordings and playing Rush songs live, it’s incredible to see that L
Last night was a pinnacle moment for this Ol’ Colonel’s career. My dear friend and childhood superhero #GeddyLee decided to join The Delirium onstage in Toronto for our rendition of Sean’s Dad’s, “Tomorrow Never Knows”. As Geddy slinked out of the shadows with my Pachyderm bass in his mighty grips, the crowd slowly swelled to a frenzy of recognition. The energy and excitement was so palatable that it brought a joyful tear to my eye. Like Joe DiMaggio stepping back up to the plate, Geddy proceeded to show us all why he is one of the greatest to ever wield a four string piece of furniture. It was pure magic and I imagine I’ll feel the tingle on the back of my neck for some time. Alas, our recording equipment went on the fritz so it will only live in our minds…and on the handful of cellphones that were fortunate enough to capture the glory. Good times. – Les Claypool

Music Industry Weekly Featured Artist: Rising Star Linards Zarins

0

Linards Zarins is a Latvian-born, Spanish-based singer and songwriter whose mix of pop and R&B vocals has led him to grow a sizable and engaged fanbase.

He has capitalized off his success through a slew of widely acclaimed covers of international superstars such as Ed Sheeran, Ariana Grande, Mabel, Justin Bieber, and more. As he began to organically grow his following on Instagram, his online presence gained the attention of producers, other artists, and A&R executives who wanted to work with him, feature him on their tracks/songs, collaborate with him as a singer, etc. Linards said that it wasn’t something that he was searching for at the time, but then decided to write and release his own music. Now he is on the list of emerging artists to look out for!

Check out one of Linards’ recent posts on his social media platform covering The Chainsmokers, “This Feeling” that accumulated over 6 million views and counting:

So here’s the thing.. This song means a lot to me, would lie to you guys if I say that’s not my favourite, actually first song which made my mind that I even started to listen @thechainsmokers and @kelseaballerini EVERYDAY!!! @drewtaggart @alexpall @emilywarrennnn @sylvestermusic The song is called “This Feeling”, They all are great musicians, hope someday to collab with them, if I have the chance.. (wish me luck)🙈 I have been singing since I can remember myself, since then I realised that music is something what can’t be taken away from me.. I’m glad I have never quit singing and also started to write my own songs.. when I had a chance to go out with my friends or do whatever in life what was coming into my mind! Nowadays it’s very hard to be heard, even the greatest singers we are listening everyday, not everyone has the opportunity to get signed or just be heard all around the world (tough industry), but thank God we have social media which actually has changed a lot past few years and because of that I’m also able to spread my message, emotions and feelings through music and posting videos, getting in touch with other great singers when I want and what I want, that helps us to keep doing our thing. I know I’m not the only one who thinks the same way, but only with hard work and mega ambitions we can make it. It’s not a lie that I have been working on my debut single which actually is really cool and amazing thing what’s currently happening in my life (“for those who are asking”), obviously I would love to release my music every month, but we have to start somewhere u know.. but I’m not coming back, for suuuuure! And for those who are listening – together we can!!! Whatever it is, music, dancing, acting, sports, fashion etc.. as long as we have something that keeps us alive – we will make it! Your not alone in this! Definitely will keep posting a covers of my favourite artists so on.. Let’s do it 🙌🏽 #singing #singingcover #instasinging #sing #instagrammer #musician #instacover #music #singingvideo #singer #cover #coversong #singingislife #singingcontest #thisfeeling #thechainsmokers #kelseaballerini #drewtaggart #videooftheday #thevoice #xfactor #sing2piano

A post shared by LINARDS ZARINS (@linardszarinsofficial) on

Linards consistently uploads videos and content to Instagram, interacting with his fans, and collaborating with artists around the world which led to a massive spike interest in his music on a global scale, gaining 150k in one month alone. 

He is currently working with Danish Platinum selling-producer and songwriter Daniel Calvin for his upcoming music whom Linards credits as a huge influence to his musical taste. After years of carving his own musical style, Linards is preparing to release his debut single to the world, ‘Good Thing’, which underlies the growth and maturation that Linards has gone through over recent years. His distinct sound eclectically samples elements of urban, pop, latin, electric, and dance music that carve a chill yet upbeat atmosphere for listeners. 

In Linards Zarins’ debut single ‘Good Thing’, the rising singer lays his heart on the table and reflects on the array of emotions that were felt in his past relationships. As with all intimate connections, there are moments of pure happiness and bliss, times of soul-crushing stress and sadness, and all of the passion, pride, and excitement in between. He encouraged his fans by sharing this underlying message, “Despite all the emotional turmoil that comes in relationships, we need to keep going no matter how down we feel because with every low comes a high in the future, that is just how the universe works.” Ultimately, what Zarins shares in ‘Good Thing’ is how the painful lessons learned from past relationships prepares us for the beauty that will blossom from those awaiting us in the near future.
