OMG! IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING
After
working behind the scenes as a freelance music composer for years - and
a very successful one at that, San Francisco based Meghan McDuffee
announced earlier in the year that she would be further exploring the
depths of her musical talents by stepping out from behind the curtains
and putting her vocals to the test while continuing to create magical soundtracks for movies, games and other visual projects.
Fans
of her often dark, cinematic soundscapes, who have supported every
single project she has worked on right from the start of her career were
nothing short of excited and have been holding on to their seats ever
since. After only a short while, the prolific composer delivered as
promised.
The song, titled I'll Always Remember is available to stream and download alongside the rest of Megan's instrumental and soundtrack music catalogs on Soundcloud and Bandcamp.

X Stereo, initially a trio, is duo with a sound unmatched by any other
band internationally. Their super strong work ethic, exceptional
talent and bulletproof sound have been key and remain key to their
success. Having performed
at venues all around the world, released 5 EPs and 3 hot singles
independently within only a few years, they are no strangers to big
music festivals and award ceremonies, and are scheduled to perform at
Focus
Wales 2017, an annual Music Festival in Wales, UK. They were also
celebrated at the 26th annual Korean Music Awards in January and will be
featured on the
official soundtrack CD for the event.

the band continues its rise to the top, Deejay continues to make a name
for himself on social media, gaining new fans everyday. Love X Stereo's

DEEP JACKSON ALBUM DOWNLOAD DATES FINALLY ANNOUNCED
Deep Jackson is a rapper who takes his craft seriously. He doesn't believe in throw-away mixtapes and throw-away music, instead he takes his time with each record and makes sure every single song is just as special as the last.
His debut album, Sense Of Urgency, released in 2009, was what made fans know what he was all about and is why they've stuck with him through his journey. His sound is contemporary hip hop but never strays far from the roots of '90s hip hop to guarantee its authenticity.
"If you long for those days when music made you feel something, then yearn no more. Every artist has their 'Uh-Huh' moment and this is that moment.."
Those were the only album notes that were needed to let Deep Jackson fans know his latest body of work was nothing to be played with - and it was, however, "It Just So Happens" has only be available to stream for free on SoundCloud for months.
Any fans who have been waiting for their chance to get their hands on a copy will be happy to hear that it will be available to download on the 6th of July, 2017 - well worth the wait.
