To Everyone

Here is another from my beloved Pet Shop Boys. "Love Comes Quickly" to everyone, everyone.... Always an inspiration and so excited for their upcoming release of Hotspot in 2020. So far it sounds like they are returning to form with new fresh ideas and complex lyrics which have always added to their appeal when they no longer are trying to satisfy their "lasers and overtly produced post electro sound base" which is not necessarily bad but nice to know they are tapping complexity and simplicity at the same time. Neal never sounded better and clear! So here is me remixing their classic "Love Comes Quickly" yet again! This one is more suggested and streamlined with some insane harps and string for added drama! Love Comes Quickly "To Everyone" Enjoy

RIP Jackie Moore

Devastated with the news of this wonderful woman with such an amazing voice. Ms. Jackie Moore. Your disco legacy will live on!

La Llorona

Melancholy is my refuge at times. Remembering my grandmother Titina Leal. She was a grand Dame of poetry. (La Gran Dama de Poesia) During the '40s and '50s, she would shake the house down while reciting Pablo Neruda's poems with such passion on several of South American stages. She was actually  one of Neruda's muse.  She was also an actress and appears in a 1953 Mexican/Guatemalan film titled "Cuando Vuelvas A Mi" (When You Return to Me). I never got to meet her as she died of complications from leukemia the young age of 34. I do feel her presence sometimes.
So in lieu of Dia De Los Muertos,  I felt inclined to remix this beautiful version of La Llorona which I'm not sure yet how it's connected to my late grandmother but I just discovered by this version sung by this youngster with a powerful voice named Angela Aguilar. Enjoy!
