This guy is a good friend of mine and we met in an audition queue like 3 years ago. It was the funniest day by far and since then nothing but constant jokes and pure magic has evolved from our friendship. Shax is a bit of a mad one but in a way that is so sick you dont know what to do with yourself while he’s performing. His gigs are like a serious party which sounds weird but you’ll just have to go to understand. Creatively clever and talented i’m not even sure why I havnt seen him more blogged about. BUT NOW since I have the power to write and be read I am sharing with you this genius!

We collabed on an amazing song called:  Let Go – Which I co wrote alongside Duncan James and Shax. The result came out a little like so:

I dont think I know any other artist personally that is so involved with the songwriting/production and performance as this guy. I really hope people start making room in their collection for something totally fresh and innovative – I mean, if that’s what you’re looking for. His debut EP is availably for FREE here:

Foolishness Vol.1

Enjoy – Szjer x

 2009 couldn’t have passed without me writing a bit about a group that has literally transformed my approach to music this year! Not only vocally but lyrically and musically I have become so much more aware of style and space in relation to composition. A friend of mine first introduced me to the bands sound early on this year and I was amazed that not many people knew about them and so I made it my mission to preach from the high hills of hackney and beyond. I can honestly say the first album was MAGIC and that I prefer it to the second however songs like “Feather” and “Fortune” [Machine Dreams] are classics.

 

I find that most of the time I’m drawn to one of two tracks in particular of most albums that I can connect with. So without scaring you off with my heartfelt writings I’ll leave you with an utter masterpiece. I think this song is beautiful and inspirational and so subtly powerful its MAD. If you haven’t heard them before then i proudly introduce to you Little Dragon. 

 In a bit
