Book excerpt: "It was pure a masterpiece, enticing, a beautiful tease." "We are different," she murmured, her head on his chest. "Yes, and I like it. A lot." they danced away in the fading moonlight, she could feel his heartbeat and he could hear her soft, rhythmic breaths. Adelene was a simple twelve year old, residing in a small town of South Africa. She wasn’t the kind who belonged to a high school ‘clique’ or the one who’d be found setting her hair before the class. She‘s the one who lives the life her way, in the football field. Not from an average well off family, her father being a drunkard, no one taught her how to dream big, or live big. Then she met Ashton Dawson. The son of one of the richest businessmen of the town, six years elder to her. After a very shaky start to their friendship, they gradually found solace in each other. It was a different friendship, totally exceptional. Which way will it head? Will the boat sail smoothly or hit a rock and shatter along the shore? ******* Adelene is now a successful entrepreneur. She didn’t have a dream, but she reflected that of others. Famous for her charity work and down to earth nature, her popularity was quickly hitting the headlines. Everyday she would work, smile and come back. To a mansion she had labelled as ‘home’. But her heart resides in those lush green forests of Franschoek, Africa. She misses her old life, her friends, her brother and most importantly, him. Will she embark on a journey, in order to find herself once again? Or will she let the flow of her fast city life engulf her and live the whole life swimming in a pool of questions: What if I had looked for them? For…him? A tale studded with emotions and music, revolving around two souls who are poles apart, and still have one common link that makes them inseparable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music . . . the heart's greatest librarian. The average song is three and a half minutes long; those three and a half minutes could lead to a slow blink, a glimpse of the past, or catapult the soul into heart-shattering nostalgia. At the height of my career, I had the life I wanted, the life I'd always envisioned. I'd found my tempo, my rhythm. Then I received a phone call that left me off key. You see, my favorite songs had a way of playing simultaneously. I was in love with one man's beats and another's lyrics. But when it came to the soundtrack of a life, how could anyone choose a favorite song? So, to erase any doubt, I ditched my first-class ticket and decided to take a drive, fixed on the rearview. Two days. One playlist. And the long road home to the man who was waiting for me.
Download or read book Heartbreak Symphony written by Laekan Zea Kemp and published by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clap When You Land meets On the Come Up in this heart-gripping story about navigating first love and overcoming grief through the power of music. Aarón Medrano has been haunted by the onstage persona of his favorite DJ ever since his mother passed away. He seems to know all of Aarón’s deepest fears, like how his brain doesn’t work the way it should and that’s why his brother and father seem to be pushing him away. He thinks his ticket out is a scholarship to the prestigious Acadia School of Music. That is, if he can avoid blowing his audition. Mia Villanueva has a haunting of her own and it’s the only family heirloom her parents left her: doubt. It’s the reason she can’t overcome her stage fright or believe that her music is worth making. Even though her trumpet teacher tells her she has a gift, she’s not sure if she’ll ever figure out how to use it or if she’s even deserving of it in the first place. When Aarón and Mia cross paths, Aarón sees a chance to get close to the girl he’s had a crush on for years and to finally feel connected to someone since losing his mother. Mia sees a chance to hold herself accountable by making them both face their fears, and hopefully make their dreams come true. But soon they’ll realize there’s something much scarier than getting up on stage—falling in love with a broken heart.

Download or read book The Pitchfork 500 written by Scott Plagenhoef and published by Touchstone. This book was released on 2008-11-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM THE BRAIN TRUST BEHIND PITCHFORKMEDIA.COM -- THE WEBSITE THE LOS ANGELES TIMES DECLARED "AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE IPO D GENERATION'S LEXICON, A MUST-READ" -- A FRESH GUIDE TO THE 500 BEST SONGS OF THE PAST THIRTY YEARS. Named the "best site for music criticism on the web" by The New York Times Magazine, Pitchforkmedia.com has become the leading independent resource for music journalism, the place people turn to find out what's happening in new music. Founded in 1995, Pitchfork has developed one of the web's most devoted followings, with more than 1.6 million readers monthly who tune in for daily reviews, news, features, videos, and interviews. In The Pitchfork 500: Our Guide to the Greatest Songs from Punk to the Present, Pitchfork offers up their take on the 500 best songs of the past three decades. Focusing on indie rock (Arcade Fire, the Shins), hiphop (Public Enemy, Jay-Z), electronic (Daft Punk, Boards of Canada), pop (Madonna, Justin Timberlake), metal (Metallica, Boris), and experimental underground music (Suicide, Boredoms), it features all-new essays and reviews written with the sharp wit and insight for which the site is known. Kicking it off in 1977 with the birth of punk and independent music, The Pitchfork 500 runs chronologically, with each chapter representing a distinct period and offering a narrative of how the musical landscape of the day influenced its artists. The book opens with David Bowie, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, Kraftwerk, and Brian Eno, the "art-rock godfathers" who set the tone and tenor for the next thirty years, and wraps up in the present, when bands connect with new audiences through social networking sites and prime-time TV placements -- and when a single mp3 can turn a niche indie artist into a global sensation. Sidebars like "Yacht Rock," "Runaway Trainwrecks," "Nanofads," and "Career Killers" call out some far-from-classic musical trends and identify the guiltiest offenders. Modernizing the music-guide format, The Pitchfork 500 reflects the way listeners are increasingly processing music -- by song rather than by album. These 500 tracks condense thirty years of essential music into the ultimate chronological playlist, each song advancing the narrative and, by extension, the music itself.

Download or read book Bittersweet Symphony written by Belinda Boring and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-09-09 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you piece together a broken soul-a spirit so crushed and battered from the weight of guilt and self loathing that the only conceivable way to keep breathing-to keep placing one foot in front of the other-is to erect four solid, impenetrable walls to protect your heart? Simple: you don't. At least that's what I thought. The change was almost too faint to notice at first but it began with her. It's always been about her. Whether she knew it that night when she came to the bar and approached me after the show, I don't know. But she started something inside me that I couldn't fight or resist until it was too late. With her smile, her forgiveness, her friendship, Caylee Sawyer saved me that night and every day that followed. Patiently she showed me that the grief I'd buried under a mountain of a lifestyle of 'not-giving-a-damn' still needed an outlet-to be acknowledged. To be released. She saved me. I just hope I don't screw it up.

Download or read book An Economic Approach to the Plagiarism of Music written by Samuel Cameron and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an economic analysis of plagiarism in music, focusing on social efficiency and questions of inequity in the revenue of authors/artists. The organisation into central chapters on the traditional literary aspect of composition and the technocratic problem of ‘sampling’ will help clarify disputes about social efficiency and equity. It will also be extremely helpful as an expository method where the text is used in courses on the music business. These issues have been explored to a great extent in other areas of musical content—notably piracy, copying and streaming. Therefore it is extremely helpful to exclude consumer use of musical content from the discussion to focus solely on the production side. This book also looks at the policy options in terms of the welfare economics of policy analysis.
Download or read book Bittersweet written by Susan Cain and published by Viking. This book was released on 2022-04-21 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Loss and impermanence are inescapable, part of the warp and weft of our lives. They are essential to love, to growth, and to art. And yet, too often, we do not acknowledge loss, let alone honour the experience of it. Illuminating, thoughtful, and deeply necessary, Susan Cain's new book will help us to name and value the experience of loss, pointing the way toward ways of being and rituals that help us to accept it rather than bury it. Blending memoir, reportage, and social science, it will reveal that joy and loss exist in equilibrium; that vulnerability, or even a melancholy temperament, can be a strength; and that embracing our inevitable losses makes us more human and more whole.
