Summer knocks on Europe's door (0)

LISTEN HERE:
Summer seems to be knocking on Europe’s door. Sweet! A suitable sound fort his season is made by Summer Heart. This is the project of David Alexander. A swedish dude with a pretty perfect sense of beauty. Fiveteen years ago he took a guitar in his hands, 5 years later he started his voice. Ten more years, he produced several epic songs. Blearing vocals accompanied by dreamy happy melodies.
Out of the blue, David became Summer Heart. “It just happened. I do love summer. But I love autumn and spring as well. And sometimes even the winter!” It is what is does to most people, summer makes him happy. Just like drinking a cup of coffee in the sun and lots of other random things.
His new album, About a Feeling, is just released. It is a homemade masterpiece. “Built on my laptop, no fancy production or so.” The single A Million Times, was released in March. After listening this song as much as the title says, boredom does not come up.
The dreamy character is visualised in the snapshots on his website. David took almost every one of them himself. He pictures his daily life on a magical way. This daily life is based in Malmö Sweden. Not the perfect place for Summer Heart. “I like big cities, but also the countryside. I prefer to be near the sea though.”
Summer Heart is on several European stages this festival season. He just came back from his tour through the continent.

Always wanted to be a DJ. Seems great to have the tools in hands to make people shake their booty. The moves of the crowd depend on your crap or super sweet taste of music. What a mighty experience must that be. Especially Dutch men seems to be font of this idea. Research by PepsiCo Holland, shows that 28% of them, dreams about this superb job. The main motivation of this dream is the possibility to practice a passion for living. The opportunity to travel is another aspect what seems to make this profession very attractive. The actual implementation of the dj dream, seems to be pretty unique.  Only 1 of 5 of the Dutch dudes, ever stood behind the dj tables. Among ladies it is only 10%.
For all those dreamers, the ones who crave for a job as dj, Pepsi now offers you the chance to practice some skills. Pepsi launched a contest for the disk jockeys of Holland. The Remix Machine on the Pepsi Facebook page is made to step in the shoes of electronic producer wonder Calvin Harris. This Scottish dj accompanied many big names such as Rihanna and Ne Yo.

The Remix Machine is the chance for all the hidden talents to show the world what they got. Pop some dubstep sounds, drums, cheesy vocals or some guitar melodies and pimp that song up.
All these remixes will be criticised by the ears of experts. The best remix will be rewarded with a trip to Ibiza. So, gifted ladies and gentlemen of Holland, make us proud and show Pepsi what you got!

Three dudes that portrait a bright Africa. (0)

"There is always two sides of every story. The negative side which is shown everyday on newspapers and TV. And there is the positive side that only appears in our family photo albums. We are portraying South Africa the way we see it "Beautiful".
I See A Different You is a photography project by Justice, Innocent and Vinyo, 3 dudes from South Africa. As the name says, they want to show the world the different side of their continent. With these snapshots, they present Africa in a total unexpected, bright and extraordinary way. A total different piece of cake than the usual Africa-images shown by Western development organizations and other fundraisers.
Justice, Innocent and Vinyo met at their local church in Soweto, SA, 16 years ago. There moms are like friends. Once upon a time, Innocent went to Kenya. He updated the homefront by sending some extreme beautiful footage of this trip. "Since we all have never been in Kenya, we were flabbergasted of how beautiful Kenya was. From that moment we decided to make it our mission to show Africa as we see it." Well, mission fulfilled dudes! These pictures definitely show a different side, the glitters of Africa.
