Here’s the new music video for ‘Rusted From The Rain’ from Canadian punk-rockers Billy Talent, their new album titled Billy Talent III will be released on July 14th.

I had never heard of this man before today, and I was just taken aback by the amount of talent and genius it takes to be able to know so many genres of music all the while keeping tremendous feel and speed in his playing. To me this display puts Steffen Schackinger among the absolute best in the world. This guitarist is just so musical in his playing, it can actually be called music for once. Blues, Jazz, Rock, Vibrato, Feel, Emotion, “drool”, Envy… He’s the best player you’ve never heard of… yet.

Not only can this guy play some absolutely amazing flute, he’s tried his hand at vocal percussion… at the same time! Beat-boxer, flute man, what else will they come up with? A true artist indeed.

A very big and beautiful sing along. So great to see events like this take place. The T-Mobile crew does it again with a massive sing along taking place. It’s a perfect harmony of less than perfect voices, but that is exactly the point.

Everyone that had a part in this was an artist in some way. The marketing people had to team up with the advertising people and think of this. Next the had to create a dance routine. Then finally they had to get hundreds of dancers to take part in the activity. Lots of teamwork, lots of creativity, lots of fun.

This is one of the most amazing vocal performances I’ve seen in a while. The Voca People combine multiple modern tracks with some classical aspects and some innovative beat box. 
The Voca People is a new international vocal theater performance that combines amazing vocal sounds and an acapella singing with the art of modern beat-box which imitates the sounds of drums, trumpets, guitars and other instruments and musical effects without using any musical instrument on stage, performed in a humoristic way and with audience participation.
Who are The Voca People?
The Voca people are 8 …

In case you didn’t know, the blues can be found at the base of almost every music genre there exists today. That is why our featured artist this week is a musician and a pure blues master.

This is John Lajoie’s new song called “I kill people” using his MC Vagina persona. An instant classic!

Does anyone else feel that music is just being repeated every once in a while?

This is David Taub from next level guitar. You can find him on the next level guitar website giving really great lessons and some find there way to youtube. Here’s a great lesson in picking and speed techniques. Enjoy!
