https://www.lorainelifecoaching.com/https://www.instagram.com/loraine_giyg/https://www.tiktok.com/@loraine_giyg?lang=enhttps://www.facebook.com/loraine.loozen/YoutubeSpotifyPortland, Oregon – Loraine, the multifaceted singer-songwriter originally from the Netherlands and raised in Belgium, is set to captivate audiences with her enchanting new single, "Magic Man," available now. The track is a potent preview of her upcoming EP, Power From Love, slated for release on January 3rd, 2025. Known for her unique blend of soulful electronic pop, Loraine’s latest release offers a magical journey into the power of creation and self-transformation."Magic Man" is a reflection of Loraine’s deep belief in the power to manifest and create one’s own reality. "It's about magic," she shares. "We can create our own life. We can create our own world. We have the power to do that." The song was born out of inspiration from Loraine's time as a nanny for four young girls who loved fairies and magical worlds, combining this with her musical influences at the time. The result is an uplifting track that blends fantasy with a grounded yet whimsical message. Jokingly, she adds that her husband now is convinced the song is about him, which adds a fun extra layer of interpretation to the song…The song’s evolution is just as fascinating as its message. Initially written over a decade ago, "Magic Man" began as an acoustic piece. Loraine explains, “I recorded the acoustic version... but working with my producer on all the electronic stuff... I wasn’t sure at first. But then I grew into really loving it.” The electronic production adds a fresh layer to the song, transforming it into a soulful anthem about growth, nurturing, and patience. "It’s just a lighter writing... not taking it too seriously either," she says, which adds a sense of fun and freedom to the track."Magic Man" is the second single off Loraine's upcoming EP Power From Love, which explores the concept of embracing one’s personal power. Loraine describes the EP’s theme as finding strength not in fear or anger but in love, stillness, and self-worth. "There is power in love, where you don’t necessarily need to do much... it comes down to self-love," she explains, offering listeners a sense of calm and empowerment.For Loraine, music has always been a part of her life. Growing up in a musical family, she was immersed in music early on. “As long as I can remember, I was singing and doing music,” she shares, noting that her mother, a former elementary teacher, instilled a love for music through interactive classes. This early exposure to music paved the way for Loraine to develop a passion for singing and songwriting and, later, integrate her music into her career as a life coach. Through her coaching, Loraine uses music to help individuals process and transform emotions, promoting healing and self-empowerment.With influences ranging from Christina Aguilera to Taylor Swift and Banks, Loraine’s musical style draws on a mix of genres, allowing her to create a distinctive sound that blends electronic beats with heartfelt lyrics. Her ability to draw on her own experiences and combine them with her love for music and coaching has led to a truly unique artistic voice.Fans can expect more from Loraine in the coming year as she continues to blend music with personal growth. Power From Love is an EP filled with empowering songs that encourage listeners to tap into their power and create their desired lives.For more information, visit LoraineLifeCoaching.com or follow Loraine on social media.About LoraineLoraine is a talented singer-songwriter and life coach based in Portland, Oregon.

spotifyYoutubeFacebookInstagramhttps://www.tiktok.com/@alya.the.artistNo More Lonely Christmas, the new album from ALYA, which was just dropped, is a fulfilment of the artist’s Christmas wish, embodied in the track that provides the name for the album.The eight tracks feature ALYA’s versions of three classics, including a collaboration with Eric Clapton on “Silent Night,” and five original songs, including the title track, a fast, fun, hand-clapping, jazzy, pop love song.“We wanted to create something that would be an updated version of Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You,’ which is a song I really love, a Christmas classic, but we felt like it’s time for something new, fresh, cool, and ‘No More Lonely Christmas’ is the song that came out of the thought.”Where Mariah’s song is a wish for a certain someone, ALYA’s song is the wish come true: I waited since foreverand now that we’re togetherI feel the holiday cheerCuz I’ll never be alone on Christmas“It was very fun to record,” she said. “There is a lot going on in the track.”Piano, horns, clapping, drums all combine in a happy, joyful celebration of love and the season.“It’s just a very, very good feeling song. I had so much fun recording it, and I really hope that everybody else will feel the joy, feel the love that I put in the song. I really believe that it has all the chances of becoming a new Christmas classic.”The song is a perfect namesake for an album that carries the artist’s Christmas hopes.“I wanted to put over so much love, so much good emotion, so much good energy that when you listen to the record you will feel like, no matter where you are, you are surrounded by your loved ones.”“Little Drummer Boy” and “I’ll Be Home for Christmas,” along with “Silent Night,” are the album’s three classics. Together, they constituted the EP she put out last year, Home for Christmas.They have been updated for the current album. This year’s version of “I’ll Be Home” features Indiara Sfair, “a wonderful musician from Brazil,” on harmonica.ALYA will live her Christmas wish on Monday in Los Angeles, when she will perform at the Good Shepherd Shelter for women and children who are victims of domestic violence. The children were asked to request gifts in advance, and they will get their wishes when ALYA distributes gifts.“I will be Mama Claus,” she said.Gifts will also be distributed to the mothers and staff and ALYA is providing a catered luncheon for the residents and staff.On December 19, she is streaming a live show from Burbank for STAGE.LIVE.BUY, a showcase for new artists modeled after NPR’s “Tiny Desk” series.The day the album released she performed for a “Models in Comedy” Christmas special.ALYA was born and raised in the Soviet Union and, as a child, started classical vocal training. She immigrated as an adult to the United States in 2012 and began her career in music.“I dropped everything and started my life from scratch,” she says in her official biography. “I took the road less traveled, and that has made all the difference.”She has amassed millions of viewers on her social media platforms. Her single “Hope,” released earlier this year, went viral on TikTok, drawing more than a million views. As an artist and a philanthropist, she has been featured in Star, Us Weekly, In Touch Weekly and Life & Style.Beginning last year, she took her career further down the road less taken, putting out music at a much faster pace.“It takes a while to find the right people. It takes a while to find the sound that you really love,” she said, “and I’m just warming up.”No More Lonely Christmas is her first full length album. Next year, she will come out with more singles.“We will probably drop an album at the end of next year with a new sound, with new people.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Jay Anthony is an R&B/Pop singer with a large Gospel influence throughout all his music. Whether it be the spiritual angle of his subject matter, the way he sings, or the way the music is arranged, he keeps God first in all things. His latest single, “Worth Living” from his EP Music & Me was written from a very vulnerable place and offers encouragement and motivation to anyone going through something. Jay explained that he actually began writing the song in 2021 and after going through the loss of his Grandmother, depression and therapy, was able to complete the song this year. He shared that losing her was what caused the depression which led to him temporarily losing his love of music. Since he grew up with multiple musically inclined family members and lives a family centric life, losing her was like losing a piece of the love that was in his heart. But, by completing this song he found the motivation to compose the rest of the EP.“When I finished writing this song, I cried. When I heard the finished version, I cried. When my Mother - who didn’t know about all of my crying - heard it for the first time, she cried. I knew if it had that effect on us, I had no choice but to share it with the world. The song gave me hope to continue. I knew I had to finish this project and I knew He [God] didn’t give me these words just for me to keep them to myself.”Jay purposely released this song during this time of year because of how depression affects so many people around the holidays. He wants people to know that it’s okay to not be okay and to get the therapy they need and keep living. All the music Jay writes is made with intentionality like this. For him, every song he writes is like a child which means they all need love and nurturing from him. And because of that love within them, he believes the music will resonate with people today and with people 20-40 years from now. He knows the music will be timeless because the lyrics within them and how they reached him are timeless. “It’s spiritual for me. The Most High gives me these lyrics and I’m just a vessel for Him.”The spiritual perspective of the music creation comes directly from Jay’s background in the church. And with him, he’s found that all music comes from gospel. Whether it’s chords or melodies - all of it goes back to gospel. By learning this, he was able to apply techniques from that world to a plethora of other aspects of music. His Grandmother reinforced this perspective by teaching him that the key to it all is singing from the heart. “When you sing from the heart, you’re going to touch people.” Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

https://www.amazon.com/music/player/artists/B0CVB95BTS/mundane-miraclehttps://open.spotify.com/artist/3jlE9B6T43I3KIQvLA6pj8https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsIE6j3JE_x7uc41W8XnZ7ghttps://www.instagram.com/mundane_miracle1/?next=%2Fadamboutiqe%2FElectro, like a lot of music, can make you want to sing along, or play the steering-wheel drum, or get a body part moving, but it generally works by first taking over your head and holding it still for the coming bombardment of sound.So it is with “Culmination,” the sixth track this year, releasing on November 24, from Mundane Miracle.“Listening to electronic music is like an explosion in your brain, with all these crazy things going on,” he said. “It just really sets your brain off.”“I think, with all my songs, it’s kind of like a flow of consciousness,” he said. “It is trying to put out different sounds, and once I have a little base, then I try out different elements, listening repetitively to the song trying different elements.”Mundane Miracle, is starting to put out the music that he has wanted to make since 2010, when he first heard Matthew Dear’s “I Can’t Feel.”“Culmination” is somewhat different from the five other songs he has put out so far.“I started out basically creating the atmospheric undertones to it, and I thought I was just going to have that as a song, just that atmospheric sound.”That’s the sound that hooks a listener at first. He describes it as “almost eerie, kind of ominous.”“Most of the songs I’ve been working on more recently have that kind of eerie undertone, but at the same time they’re — I feel like there’s a happiness to them.”But then he kept on listening, over and over. “Sometimes, I’ll keep listening to something, and with ‘Culmination,” I thought, ‘Oh, it would be good to have this here, and this here, and it just kind of evolved from there.”“Eerie, kind of ominous” is an apt description of the atmospheric underlayer, but coming in and exploding over it is a fireworks display of sound.He said he started hearing in it hints of other electronic music that he liked, and when he listened to those songs he tried to identify the kinds of things that he liked so that he could incorporate in his song the feelings they aroused.“I tried to capture the feel as best I could in my own song, and I was really pleased with it, and so, ‘Culmination’ — I called it that because I think it’s a culmination of my being.”His background is not music, but he has always been a listener. He says he loved classic rock — Jethro Tull was a favorite — and also krautrock, which he called “kind of like classic rock mixed with some electronic.”But the thought of making music, let alone publishing it, never entered his head as a realistic possibility.And then he heard “I Can’t Feel.”“I loved all different types of electro music, but for some reason that hit me in a way that I said to myself, ‘Wow, I really want to try this.’ I thought it would just be a fun hobby.”He recounts in his artist bio that he was inspired to contact Dear to compliment his song and to ask about music production.And Dear responded.“Although my intent was to simply do this for a low-level hobby,” he writes, “he provided a timeline for when I could expect to write and release a song, which I never imagined would even be possible.”Fourteen years later, it has become a much higher-level hobby. He is putting out music and promoting it and working on more. He has a “lot of other singles in the making.” His genre, and he will stick with it, is lo fi, instrumental electro, “but within that I bounce around between different styles and approaches.”“It’s still a fun hobby,” he said, “and I am so happy with it right now.His fun, the happiness, is reflected in the titles he has so far put out: “Magnum Poopus,” “Herculean Homunculus,” “Confetti Illuminati,” and “Sweatpant Euphoria.” His first was “Surreal.”“If I could make a living off it — I don’t need to be famous; I don’t even know if my genre really lends itself to being really popular — but even if I could just make a modest living off it, that would be a dream come true.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

https://vyd.co/ForeverEvergreenKelsey Dodd, at just 17, is no newcomer to music. Since age five, Kelsey has been on a steady journey fueled by her passion for singing and the performing arts. From vocal lessons across genres and styles, to musical theater, and training on piano, ukulele, and (a recent dabble in) guitar, she’s set to release her debut EP, “Forever Evergreen.” Originally planned as a holiday project of reimagined Christmas classics, Kelsey shares that during the process of selecting songs, she became inspired to create an original track that captures her deep, imaginative connection to the colors, emotions, and memories of the holidays and family. Based in Saratoga, New York, Kelsey brings a vibrant blend of musical influences to her work, from contemporary pop, soul, jazz, and classical sounds. She’s drawn inspiration from greats like Barbara Streisand and Ella Fitzgerald to contemporary artists like Adele and Kelly Clarkson, for her ability to sing powerfully, and convey deep emotion through her voice. Kelsey shares that her style has also been shaped by her background in musical theater, where she’s learned to give each performance its own narrative. She really commits to delivering the story behind each song—something you’ll experience when you listen to “Forever Evergreen.”The EP’s title track, “Forever Evergreen,” co-written with Cassandra Kubinski, and produced by Joel Moss and Jim Mastrianni, is the emotional centerpiece of the project. This original song embodies Kelsey’s authenticity and love for the holiday season, which she describes as a time when, no matter what happens throughout the year, the holidays serve to reconnect with family, yourself, and the things you cherish most. “No matter what we’ve lost, no matter what we knew,Who had a golden year or who’s feeling blueThose memories wrapped in red on that snow white sceneThe moments that we share this season stay forever evergreen,” she sings in the chorus line. Kelsey describes the Evergreen tree as a symbol of both nostalgia and continuity—a constant rock, much like family and tradition. The color green represents the refreshing, and regrounding elements of connecting with her family, where each time, they get to create new moments with one another.In addition to her original song, the EP includes four classic Christmas covers. She laughs that the selection process started with her bringing a binder full of 30+ Christmas covers to her team that she knew and loved, but needed support narrowing down. Her team comprises Grammy-winning producer Joel Moss, whom Kelsey met through the Saratoga Children’s Theater, producer Jim Mastrianni, and musical director Cassandra Kubinski. The team’s creative process included brainstorming over dozens of these holiday tracks, finally landing on the songs that sparked the most joy and musical uniqueness with Kelsey’s delivery. Joel played an instrumental role helping Kelsey cultivate an animated experience in the EP, full with live instruments like saxophone, clarinet, and organ to capture that classic Christmas warmth. She mentions not wanting to give too much away, but loved some of the creative touches they made to each track; Nat King Cole’s “The Christmas Song,” features a nod to the Nutcracker, while “Let It Snow” gets a jazzy twist with playful hints of “Jingle Bells.” Each song infuses Kelsey’s emotional connection to holiday memories and colors, and combines nostalgia with the newness of each season. While initially planned as an EP of just covers, the team delightfully realized that an original track would complete the collection, rounding out the project. For Kelsey,  “Forever Evergreen” represents more than a musical project. The EP celebrates self-expression, authenticity, gratitude, family, and tradition. Through her music, she hopes to inspire fans to embrace their own roots and cherish the people around them. “This project allowed me to bring myself to the table, to share my memories, and to watch them come alive in the lyrics and music,” she says. It captures a very real and foundational part of herself. As Kelsey steps into her future with dreams of performing and releasing more original music, she’ll be headed to NYC to pursue a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Musical Theater. To readers and future fans, Kelsey offers a closing piece of advice: “Don’t be afraid to share yourself with the world, being genuine and authentic can lead to some of the greatest gifts life could give you. Don’t be afraid to open those doors.” For a musical reminder to celebrate family and the little things that make this season so special, Catch “Forever Evergreen” coming out November 15th.

http://facebook.com/blasthavershttps://blasthavers.bandcamp.com/http://instagram.com/blasthaversBioBay Area electronic collective Blast Havers crafts music with both the dance floor and a broader audience in mind. While their tracks are designed to get people moving, they also aim to resonate with listeners outside of the club, capturing the feeling of fun and freedom that music offers—whether at a desk, in the car, or at a party.Their sound, rooted in tech house, features a laid-back tempo that allows for more space in the beats, blending chill vibes with high-energy moments. This creates a paradoxical, yet engaging experience—perfect for both dancing and deeper listening. "We’re making music that transports people, not just to the dance floor, but through a whimsical, almost absurd journey," they explain.Their debut single, "Tested On Animals," reflects this unique approach, inspired by the irony of a dog treat package labeled "not tested on animals." With witty lyricism and unconventional pacing, Blast Havers embraces the roots of house music, reminding listeners that slowing down doesn’t mean sacrificing energy.Drawing influences from funk, Daft Punk, Gorillaz, and De La Soul, the group plans to release several singles through 2025, including "Content Schmontent" in January and "Take The Ride" in February, alongside expanding their visual presence. At their core, Blast Havers is all about having fun—both for the audience and themselves. "Just having a blast," as they put it.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Website https://music.amazon.com/artists/B0CY1WDXB9/the-jimmy-dixon-grouphttps://music.apple.com/us/artist/the-jimmy-dixon-group/1732325824https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC38WVQ_MCyqbNT-__vrVZDAFirst rain, then distant thunder, now driving, insistent piano and, ten seconds in, thunder riding on guitars crashes inside the earbuds. The storm rages righteously for another four minutes.“We just tried to write a good, old fashioned rock and roll song,” said Jimmy, “where the listeners would wonder what happened to their socks: well, they got rocked off by The Jimmy Dixon Group! So, we wrote a little rock and roll tune for our vintage electric guitars and plugged ’em into an amp.”Mission accomplished.“Hopefully, people can dig the groove. It's just a song that makes you feel good.”For those who want to groove on the lyrics:Up in the thinnest of airFading a sense to careNo more painLost touch of what is sane“The great thing about a song is that it can have one meaning to one person and mean something completely different to someone else. And neither one is wrong. For me, it’s about, I guess, being on a higher plane,” said Jimmy, “however one gets there, and being able to think about who you are, what you’re doing, how you’re spending your time.”Like, listening to rock and roll?“That’s right. Exactly.”The Jimmy Dixon Group is seven people, all with the surname Dixon (no relation anywhere) as far as anybody outside the group is concerned. The website carries the highly entertaining origin story, and anybody willing to believe it is welcome to do so. Jimmy is lead vocals and, with his 1955 Martin D-28, “some guitar.” Chubbs Dixon is the drummer. Cranky Dixon has a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Special and his wife, “Midnight” Mae Dixon, is the pianist. Gary Dixon plays a 1968 Hofner 500/1 bass and sings backing vocals.Capo Dixon, rhythm guitar, is supposedly named for his love of using a capo on his 1967 Martin D12-35 12-string acoustic and his 2017 Rickenbacker 660/12 electric.Benmont Dixon plays strings.“In Thin Air” is the second of 10 tracks on the album Rough Demos, released this year. This is the first music the group has released. Jimmy tells the story of these seven people who just wanted to get together with their vintage instruments and their love for vintage rock and roll and write and play music. A couple years ago, they did just that. They gather in person from time to time but otherwise work and collaborate from a distance.“We didn’t go into it thinking we would make an album. We just went into it thinking we’d have a little fun together, writing some songs and playing together. We spent a lot of time on it, and then all of a sudden we had songs that we had a lot of fun making, and we thought somebody would get a little joy out of listening. So we scraped together what we had in the studio and made an album.”The Rough Demos name has its own origin story, supposedly being “recorded whenever and wherever the group could find an empty studio and an engineer who had his back turned,” according to the official group bio. Believing that is optional.“We really love, and we’re really proud of, the album.”Their music is inspired by “the roots of rock and roll,” said Jimmy.He cites ’50s Chicago blues — Willie Dixon (no relation), Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters, Little Walter — then moving into the ’60s with artists such as Dylan, and on to the ’70s (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers).he tracks, whether fast and furious like “In Thin Air” or meditative and whimsical like “Capo 5th Fret No. 2” (“Art is dead, long live the art/Priced to move at Neil’s new store”), are full of wonderful performances by the musicians.They are about 90 percent done, he says, with the music that will be Rough Demos II, which will be released early next year.They love the tones of the old instruments too, he said, especially the ’50s and ’60s Fenders, Gibsons and Martins.“They just have their own unique sound that we really love. Nothing wrong with the new stuff, but we love the sound that you get from an old tweed amp after you plug in that Gibson Les Paul.”“In Thin Air,” a fine piece of old-fashioned rock and roll, has, says Jimmy, “a nice groove to it and people can feel the rock and roll.”He says the band has no career destination.We started out not really having a goal in mind, just playing and creating, having fun and getting joy out of music. We take it one small step at a time, and if we can connect with a couple people here and there who really like our music, that is tremendously exciting for us.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

SoundcloudYoutubehttps://belleairemusic.comBelle Aire is an infinitely creative writer and Music Artist who currently dwells in Los Angeles. Hailing from San Diego, she was immersed in the artistic realm early on and the universal love of music has been her driving force ever since.  With her loving, free-spirit, and outgoing personality combined, it certainly feels like love is in the “Aire” when she’s performing on stage for all of her wonderful “Aires” (heirs or fans). Belle Aire’s songs are windows into her soul, life journey, and dreams.  When it comes to Belle Aire’s musical influences, they’re countless and include original movie musical Annie, Whitney Houston, Tina Tuner, Michael Jackson, and Toni Braxton. Additionally, Keith Washington, Dark Child, Ike Turner and Joe Ryan all of which she has collaborated with in the past inspire her immensely. Out of everyone, though, the little girl inside her heart still loves the character Annie Because she was always seen as the girl with the least potential but she dreamed big and saw the greater good in everyone and came out on top! As much as the Soul and R&B genres awakened her to her unwavering melodic devotion, EDM is her home sweet home, which matches her vibrant personality and bold energy to a T. What draws her to the genre of EDM is it’s universal love and devoid of age discernment; whether you’re fifteen or fifty—everyone must DANCE! Belle Aire possesses the genuine background and innate aptitude (dynamic vocal chops and choreographic eloquence included) to move into this lucrative genre, which is in dire need of some diverse female talent since Ultra Nate, Crystal Waters and The Weather Girls. Furthermore, Belle Aire’s one-of-a-kind stage persona is a rare commodity, as she draws from the antiquities of Rome—brimming with castles, court men/eunuchs, women robed in elegant body paint, and cascading fluid drops of light… which is also known as “a decadent musical with a free spirit” of sorts. Her unforgettable performances are greatly choreographed with dancer accompaniment.   While music will forever be on her mind and in her heart, Belle Aire also loves to dance, sing karaoke, exercise, play pool, bowl, learn new languages, meet new people and discover new restaurants. Being the second oldest sister of four siblings and the daughter of an ever-supportive mother, she cherishes her family time more than anything. Goal-wise, Belle Aire has various aspirations, including winning a Grammy, being Number 1 on the charts, headlining at huge events like EDC and Concerts overseas, and collaborating with the top EDM DJ’s like Zedd, Diplo, and David Guetta. Being the compassionate soul that she is, Belle Aire also wants to give back to the world and start a foundation for abused women and children.  As a strong believer of music being ageless and containing healing abilities for the mind, body and spirit, she knows that each and every one of us are destined for greatness and she wishes to convey this in everything that she does. Belle Aire not only believes in dreams she is “Living Beyond The Dream”.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.
