'Just My Sun' A Message of Hope!

Image
There are times when a song comes with a powerful message that brings you through a not so pleasant time in your life. If you are anything like me, you listen to it as many times as you can until the wounds start to slowly heal, 'Just My Sun' delivers a message that many relate to, but very few speak of!  San Francisco Bay Area's iconic lyricists Deuce Eclipse recalls, "At the time of writing this song, I was in the process of trying to have a child. I thought about all the parents that were going through the same thing." Many going through the same life path, remain silent and do not voice how they are feeling. They silently push through and navigate through life taking one day at a time. This first-time collaboration between two talented musicians was birthed 8 years ago at SXSW and together they were both able to bring forth a musical creation that releases some inner private feelings through Deuce Eclipse's very personal message!

LA's music scene has always evolved and the DJ scene has always been a strong backbone as to why bands become successful in LA and other parts of the Nation.

Why Can't We Support The MUSIC?

I was asked a few weeks ago what I felt was causing a certain genre of music to not gain a fan base or to not gain the recognition it once had. Although I don't claim to be an expert or to have the solution to fix this particular genre, I do have my thoughts on why there is no movement. Every genre of music goes through phases and with these phases there is a brand new twist on the foundation of what the music was created on. Many genres adapt, even if its pulling at the very core of their integrity. I believe they do this because they feel if they cannot accept the new style of music they will hinder growth among their peers. At one point in everyone's music career there has been the rejection and doubt of each ones style of music, but they continued to follow their dream and set a different standard that most follow. Being critical to the point of monopolizing one style to keep "the tradition" alive will and has always caused strife among musicians. If you d...
