Fidelis - Want This

Born in Nigeria and raised in London, the singer and songwriter Fidelis uses music as a means to explore the world and his own mind. Influenced by his experiences, heritage, and reflections, Fidelis blends poetic lyrics with soothing melodies akin to the likes of Pink Sweats, Ed Sheeran, and Sam Smith. Fidelis has been writing songs, learning instruments for the better part of the last decade, on a journey to find his sound. Fidelis wants his music to reach the people that feel lost and uninspired, the people that live with the fear of the unknown, and the dreamers who get lost in stories to escape from some of the harsh realities of life.

Fidelis is releasing his debut single titled ‘Want This’. Want This is a soulful ballad about a vow Fidelis made to himself to keep pushing forward for what he desires. It’s a song inspired by his own struggles not only as an artist but as a person trying to figure things out. The song tells a story of pain that is familiar to anyone who is attempting to achieve their dreams even when the challenges seem overwhelming. The lyrics allow the listener to reflect on their own journey over a calming guitar loop. The single will be Fidelis’ first release as a recording artist which he is set to follow up with more singles and an EP during the first half of 2021.

Interview with Yajna | CEO/Artist/Founder of Rising Phoenix

Love Music: Hello Yajna, can you tell our audience a little bit about yourself? 

Hi everyone, I’d love to tell you some about myself! I’m a Swedish singer, songwriter, producer, entrepreneur, businesswoman and CEO of Rising Phoenix Music Group and Rising Phoenix Entertainment.

I’m a dedicated and loving mother of two, a passionate musician, snowboarder, horseback rider and a lover of action sports. I’m also a Jewelry designer and will soon launch my own Jewelry collection with Giantto Group in Los Angeles. Currently, I’m planning the campaign for the launch of my Jewelry and music releases.

Entrepreneurship sparks my desire because new ideas constantly come to me. I have a lot of energy, I am so thankful!

My philanthropy work allows me to give back, and do work that deeply matters to me. I founded a non-profit organization called, "Women World Wide" to help women develop leadership, business ideas, and collaborate with other entrepreneurs. I want to give women the space to do what they love, and integrate that with a healthy lifestyle that works for them and their families. I'm also one of the founders of the non profit organisation "STOP GBV", where we are artists working to prevent and stop gender based violence. We are a strong and dedicated team, and right now we are focusing a lot on our work in Africa.

My goal is to inspire others through my own experience, my struggles, and my mistakes so that others can feel empowered and learn from my story.

I’m a small-town girl living in the Swedish Mountains in Sweden’s most popular Ski Resort Sälen, Dalarna. I love the feeling of community and being around others, making conversation and enjoying each other. I love to cook and throw parties with big dinners for family and friends.

Here on Earth, I do my best to take care of our planet, animals and develop my awareness. I’m a proud vegan and I keep up with my health. I do pilates and a lot of mindful exercise and I love just being out in Mother Nature to fill up my energies and boost my body with fresh air and be close to nature.

Music has always been a source of comfort and joy in my life, I grew up in a family of musicians, and my mother was a composer. I have a big family, five siblings, who I adore and admire! I’m a mindful person with an open heart so I live my life by thinking that you can do, and have whatever you truly desire, and focus on. Think about it, believe it, receive it! Life is beautiful and a blessing!

Love Music: How did you come up with the idea of the Rising Phoenix project?

I wanted to share my own true story to the world. And I see myself as a Rising Phoenix. I have been through a lot, I am a fighter and through my Rising Phoenix project I have found myself and my passion for music. And I feel that so many out there can relate to my story, and by my work with the Rising Phoenix project, I can express myself through my work and my music, and inspire others to follow their hearts and dreams. I have built my whole business on the story of the Phoenix and how I have turned my pain into my passion, and now sending out a message of self love, joy and empowerment.

I released the trilogy of the Rising Phoenix as my first music project in English.

Love Music: Where did you find so much strength for creating music full of self-love and empowerment?

After my divorce in 2016, I got really sick and fell into a deep depression. It was a very dark time. What saved me was the love for my children, music, and God. Music started coming to me during the darkest moments in life. Through music and the love for my children, I could see a light in the tunnel and that made me fight my way back to life. By the time I got better and was healing, music was my way to recover and accept myself for who I am: nothing more, nothing less. I remember thinking about people without self-love, I want to be there for all of them to inspire them, and give back all the energy that I got from healing myself.

My strength comes from surviving through such darkness and coming out of it stronger than ever with so much energy and power. I feel that it’s my mission to share this with the world, as a living proof of how much we can accomplish with the right mindset, love and the power of life.

Love Music: Describe your sound.

I call my sound atmospheric, cinematic soul/pop, R&B. I want my music to give the listener inner visuals and take them to new dimensions. My sound is very airy and I feel like I found my own tone, my unique sound as if I’m standing on a mountain when I’m singing!

Love Music: What’s your inspiration?

I get inspiration from my own experiences. I write about things that I’ve been through, about what’s going on in the world and about things that people can relate to. I’m always true to myself when I write my music, thinking, this is me, this is what I want to say in this song, and then I just go with it, all in or nothing at all.

I get inspired when I think about the power of music and the impact it has on people’s lives. I want to make a change and I want to speak for the ones that can’t get their voices heard and I want to stand strong for the ones that aren’t that strong. That keeps me inspired and motivated.

Love Music: What’s the story behind your latest single “Last Heartbeat”?

I wanted to give my audience a song with the message of true unconditional love. I know so many people out there have felt love and been in love, it is so powerful. We envoke love because it feels good to love and be loved. Love makes us stronger and vulnerable at the same time and makes us do all kinds of wacky things!

Love is universal, and we all crave it even though it can hurt us. After going through the pain of getting divorced from a long marriage, I had thoughts of never being able to feel love or fall in love again. It was difficult but slowly, love came back into my life, stronger and more powerful than ever. I allowed myself to feel love, even if it might be scary or uncertain.

When we embody true unconditional love, we are willing to sacrifice everything for the ones we love and care for. This song is very personal to me and my experience. I dedicated it to my loved ones, family, friends and of course to my fans and everyone listening!

Love Music: The track is more electro driven than your previous releases, how did you decide to switch your music approach?

Short answer, I LOVE TO DANCE! Dancing and moving to a fun beat brings people together and creates so much energy. I decided to bring that feeling into my music. I want my lyrics and harmonies to bring people out on the dance floor. My music makes you feel happy and swipe you off to a world of your own.

I’ve attended many music festivals through the years, and I love to see music capture a dancing crowd, that is massive! I want to bring my music into that scene, it resonates with me. I decided to bring more electronic sound to take my music beyond the living room or headphones. Standing still is not an option, dance your ass off!

Love Music: “Last Heartbeat” has been remixed by Bennu and Theiproducer, why did you decide to collaborate with these two producers?

I have worked with Theiproducer for a long time now, he is an amazing beatmaker, and producer. We are dynamic which makes for a great team, he was actually the first one to share my vision for The Rising Phoenix project. Since we’ve worked so closely together, I wanted him to be a part of my EDM project. He creates such catchy rhythms and beats, we found my atmospheric and cinematic pop/soul sound while working together. When you collectively create with someone who shares your vision, there’s an explosion of creativity!

Bennu and I met through our mutual friends in Los Angeles. After hearing some of his music and beats, I was completely convinced. I love how he experiments with different sounds and rhythm, it resonated with me and my vision. His creativity and the upbeat sound was something I wanted to bring to the track. I am absolutely blown away by both remixes. I feel so much gratitude for Bennu’s and Theiproducer’s help and insights!

Love Music: How do you feel in the EDM genre? How is it different from pop you have been representing so far?

I feel amazing standing in the EDM genre, I love the energetic vibe! I still have a similar audience with a lot of pop/soul/R&B fans who love hitting the dance floor. I am confident EDM lovers will fall in love with my music as well.

In my experience, the big difference with the EDM scene is that it’s like a movement where people gather around music in a spiritual way. The audience listens to more underground acts, which creates the vibe of being one with the music. It’s like a strong movement or feeling of experimental sound that actually benefits you. Being unique and authentic attracts fans and connections on another music level. The EDM audience seems very active on social media and they are dedicated to their music. That’s probably why it is growing quickly. If you make a quality beat or track, your music can spread amazingly fast!

Love Music: Are you planning any new collaborations?

I actually am! I have some amazing new releases that I am about to drop soon with great collaborations, and I am waiting for the right time to publish them. I have benefitted so much from collaborations, and I see myself as unlimited in music! I am building a lot for my music, and there is so much I want to do! I believe and see my career as completely limitless, it’s an amazing feeling!

I have some dream collaborations that I am creating, and excited to see come in my reality! I would really love to work with artists like Daft Punk, Martin Garrix, Kygo, Lady Gaga, Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Rihanna, Billie Eilish, Ed Sheeran, Travis Scott or Khalid in the future!

Love Music: Are you going to experiment with your sound or stay in the fields of EDM and pop?

I will probably circle back to EDM/pop/soul with new music, but I also enjoy experimenting with other genres and sounds. One of my dream goals is to perform at big arenas such as Madison Square Garden NYC, The 02 Arena London, and The Forum Inglewood. But everyone knows that in the times we are in right now, nobody knows what the future is gonna look like! I pray that the entertainment industry in one way or another will recover.

At the same time, I want my music to sound like me, and my fans to feel that they can follow and grow with me. I will always stay true to myself and my sound, but I am open to mixing it up with different genres and styles and artists.

Love Music: When can we expect another release?

I’m working on a new campaign for my next releases right now, so new music is out soon! With my latest release “Last Heartbeat” I made some remixes, "Bennu Remix", “Bennu Trapbeat Remix,” and the "Iproducer Remix". I wanted my fans to find their own favorite remix. So the next one out will be "Femenomenal Special Edit" with a new sound from me. After that I have some more singles droppin and also some amazing music videos. I have been working hard with my new project, and I promise you that you will love my next releases! I am releasing my album of The Rising Phoenix soon as well. I have a lot of unreleased music that I am excited to share! I don’t have the exact dates yet, but stay tuned and follow me on my social media and music platforms for more updates!

I am looking forward to expanding my business in new areas such as books, fashion and beauty care. My vision is to let the Rising Phoenix family grow and inspire others to follow their dreams and hearts. Welcome to the movement of the Rising Phoenix! Spread the love, joy, and empowerment!

Much love and blessings to all of you,

Yajna

Colton Claye talks about his upcoming album- "Eponymous Debut", in candid interview

Love Music: Tell us a little bit about yourself. Your background, education, music passion etc. ?? 

From the outset, I tarnished my Honor Roll student status in elementary school by having my conduct reports consistently recommend that I stop singing in class. But I didn't listen to those critics and poor reviews and I carried on singing anyway. Though I still have not determined whether my never ending compulsion to transform my inner and outer world experiences into artistic expression is a healthy way of avoiding disorder or if it is a disorder in itself.

Love Music: We been hearing a lot about you and your upcoming song, so we notice your starting to gain a lot of attention how does it feel?

Well, that is wonderful word has gotten out. Wait, what have you been hearing? Who are you hearing it from? I bet they are saying terrible things about me. No one could love me, I'm not worth being loved. But I'll show them, I'll get real buff like that guy who played Urkel did. They won't be laughing at me then. Oh, that's too much work, I'll just emotional eat my way through a Lifetime movie marathon.

Love Music: Can you please tell our readers more about your upcoming album- "Eponymous Debut"?

Not sure if he was the first to say it, but I heard director Lloyd Kaufman say "You don't make the film you want to make, you make the film you can afford to make." The pandemic has stirred a burst of creativity in me but it has gotten in the way of playing with others. Combine that with a low budget and I turned to things I recorded over the years, mostly at home in Las Vegas, a few audio loops,etc. Add a dash of advancing age, a pinch of hope as a moral baseline in historical times and you have "Eponymous Debut."

Love Music: Anything specific you want to share about this album?

It is stark naked in nearly every way; Words, composition, recording. And I'm actually very satisfied with that even though I never would have intentionally put something together this way. I find it conveys this time for me rather well. And I'm reminded how Kris Kristofferson has said he doesn't worry about creating performances, he just makes songs.

Love Music: What else have you got coming up ?

I've spent the last several weeks on spoken word, now I'll give music more focus. I've got more songs to record and I'm hoping I can work on stuff with my friend Jack again soon, I just like the sound we make together. I can see some online shows as well. And outside of music, been tossing around ideas for an animal rights podcast with another friend, Brandon, that should be launching soon.

Love Music: Who is your favorite singer?

Bob Dylan. I guess you either love his voice or hate it. He can express the full range from human potential to human vulnerability in one syllable, I'm too scared to let myself go anywhere near that far but most of us are and that's why he's BOB DYLAN.

Love Music: What motivates you to do your best work?

A desire to understand something deeper for myself and somehow share that experience with others without losing anything in translation.

Love Music: Did you choose this industry, as a career, or as a hobby?

Like most, it chose me and I have no say over what it does with me. I just surrender to it even while I punch in at a day job.

Love Music: Everybody needs time out. What do you do in your free time?

This is free time. (Laughs)

Love Music: How can people find you and follow you online?

I'm loitering on most platforms, but most often at

Interview with Patrik | CEO/Founder of Hitapaudio

Love Music: Tell us a little bit about yourself. Your background, education, passion etc. ??

My name is Patrik and I was born and raised in Sweden. 35 years old. Wife and daughter. My passion for music has always been there with music loving parents. Always music in the house and a dad who was playing a lot I started early with the guitar and piano realizing I could play and even make my own basic chords and melodies. Since Hitapaudio came to light I play a lot and my daughter is very interested in music too so it seems like she will pass this passion on.

Love Music: We been hearing a lot about you, so we notice your starting to gain a lot of attention how does it feel?

It feels great to get attention for the things you do. The other day a girl from China came across one of my tracks and was so happy that it really suited her video. All these opportunities to go viral feels amazing. You reach out in a whole new way compared to only a few years ago.

Love Music: Can you please tell our readers more about your royalty free music creation?

I started making royalty free music mostly because I have a strong feeling for melodies and chords. The process is usually that I come up with an idea either in my head or by the piano when I jam. Then you build that idea with different elements in certain programs with different sounds. I use a lot of strings and synths but also a lot of piano. Some tracks are finished quickly and some can take months to finish.

Love Music: Can we use this music on our all videos?

A royalty free track is basically a track you pay for one time and then you can use it how much you like because you own a license to it. There is also something called copyright free music which is usually free to use without a license but you have to write out who the track came from in your video or the description.

Love Music: Any advice for those who want to use this royalty free music on their videos first time ?

I think as a video creator you need music for your project to really get close to the feeling of the video. If the song you are about to buy doesn't feel right then ask for another song or some changes in the song. It is important that the creator is satisfied with the music so the cooperation can continue.

Love Music: What’s your goal in life you want to achieve next?

My goal in life is to keep working with this because this is what I love and what I do best. I also look for bigger and longer deals with creators.

Love Music: What motivates you to do your best work?

When someone is really satisfied with a video that comes with a track of mine I really feel motivated to keep this thing going and making more songs to be spread over the world.

Love Music: Did you choose this industry, as a career, or as a hobby?

I choose it because it is something I love to do. I guess it was a hobby then but who doesn't wanna make money on something that they love and feel motivated doing?

Love Music: Everybody needs time out. What do you do in your free time?

I love coffee and exercise which is something that I sometimes bring to attention in my social medias.

Love Music: How can people find you and follow you online?

I use Instagram, Facebook, Spotify and Fiverr where I go under the name of hitapaudio.

Interview with Sandra North | Country Singer/Songwriter in LA

Sandra North is a swedish singer/songwriter and release country music together with her guitarist. She just released her third single on July 17th called ”You”.

We had a great chance to talk with this famous LA based singer/songwriter about her latest released single "You", her music passion, upcoming projects and much more. Read this full interesting interview here:

Love Music: Can you please tell our readers more about your life, your background, education, your music passion etc.?

I’m an LA based singer/songwriter and I write and release country/pop songs. I was born and raised in Sweden but always knew I wanted to come here to America. Music and singing was always my biggest passion too but it took me a while before I started doing that professionally. I have an AA degree in Music and Event planning back home in Sweden and used to book artists for festivals and such for a few years. I also worked at a hotel for quite long before I decided I needed to go after my dreams. The second I came to LA, in 2015, I started networking and created my own band and eventually started writing my own songs. 

Love Music: Can you please tell us more about your latest release "You"?

“You” is a sweet summer love song with happy warm emotions that will hopefully put a smile on peoples faces. It’s written for someone very special to me and it’s about that moment when you realize everything has changed. 

Love Music: Any upcoming project?

Yes! Many of them. First up is the release of my music video for “You”. We recorded it in August so it will be out very shortly. Stay tuned for the release date! I’m also finishing up some songs together with my songwriting partner and producer Juan Abella, that will complete my debut EP. We’ll hopefully have it out by the end of the year. 

Love Music: What has been one of the most exciting achievements of your career so far ?

There’s been so many exciting and unreal moments that I never thought I’d get to experience. To a new artist there are many new “firsts” that completely blow you away. The first time I heard my name on the radio, the first time they played our songs, the first time I introduced my own song on the radio or the first live interview with a radio station to name a few. There’s also that first time someone tells you they connect with a line in your song, the first time a fan writes to you, the first time you see someone singing along to your lyrics. The rewards are endless and I’m so thankful. We’ve also gotten to play at some pretty iconic venues and gotten one of our songs nominated for two music awards. Getting to record my own music videos were also a lifelong dream of mine and so amazing to get to experience. 

Love Music: What’s your goal in life you want to achieve next?

I would love to start playing country festivals next summer! It’s a big dream of mine and I always push myself forward to reach for my next goals. Playing more around Europe and Scandinavia and hopefully at bigger festivals feels like a natural next step. I also really wanna visit Nashville and check that off my list! Been dying to go for so long, to network and meet more fellow country musicians and also get to play my songs. Hopefully next year! 

Love Music: What motivates you to do your best work as a singer?

I’m a perfectionist in general so I always wanna do my best in everything I do. Especially when it comes to singing and completing my songs. I will always keep pushing and challenging myself in order to become an even better songwriter and singer. 

Love Music: Your favorite Singer?

There are many but I would have to say the ultimate favorite one would be Christina Aguilera. 

Love Music: Everybody needs time out. What do you do in your free time?

I love to hike! Especially here in the beautiful city of LA and the Hollywood Hills. I also enjoy cooking and spending time with family and friends. Miss my little kitty back in Sweden also, I’m such a cat person! Besides that I really love movies and dancing as well. 

Love Music: How can people find you and follow you online?

You can find me on any platform of your choice. Please follow my Instagram and Facebook as those are the most current updated ones where I post on all the activity and events going on. Also make sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel and website, and follow on Spotify for all the latest music and upcoming releases!

I love Rod Serling. If anyone wants to work with me on a project That's what I am looking forward to as an actress. And I like to stay true to the art.

AR Base Drops New Thought-Provoking Single “Life is Running”

AR Base’s latest track, “Life is Running,” is out for release as a follow up to his single “No Plague.”  

With the loss of close loved ones this year, seeing the injustice of innocent lives lost, and pondering how quickly our own time will come, AR Base wrote “Life is Running” as an inspirational reminder to not waste our days on earth. “Many things are going on in the world now that the book describes as trying times. So through it all, we’ve got to just hold on to God, while life is running,” he explains.  

Working with UK hip hop producer Super Beats, the new track brings an electric vibe to AR’s calming R&B influenced vocal stylings. Dropping from the get-go with a striking electronic guitar melody, backed by a powerful hip-hop beat, and smoothed over by a mellow air, “Life is Running” creates a reflective mood. AR Base’s wide ranging music has been featured on the likes of Soul Tracks, PM Studios World Wide Music News, and was most recently in the spotlight on Jesus Wired.

Influenced by living in Inglewood, California during his early adult years, AR developed his ministry’s vision through his love for music. Signed to Gee Ray Records in 2006, and also having the privilege of singing behind legends such as Stevie Wonder, Marvin Winans, Donnie McClurkin, Shirley Caesar, and Beverly Crawford, AR Base gained exposure to the music industry. He even had the honor of being chosen as backup for the “Godmother of Soul,” and Grammy Award Winning Patti LaBelle. It was an experience in his life that he is forever grateful for and will never forget. Learning behind the greats molded AR Base’s own musical stylings to combine his R&B roots, flavored with gospel, with a hint of neo-soul, and a dash of hip hop influences.

With the release of “Life is Running,” AR Base reminds us that “life goes fast even if it feels slow, so don’t miss out... God is calling you now.”

Matthew Shell talks about “Towards New Beginnings (feat. Douglas Lira)” in candid interview

Love Music: Tell us a little bit about yourself. Your background, education, music passion etc. ??

My name is Matthew Shell. I'm a music producer, sound engineer, eLearning professional, guitarist, percussionist, and family man. I was classically trained on piano by my Mom and taught the basics of guitar by my Dad. For audio production engineering, I studied at Omega Recording Studios in Rockville, MD. I also have an undergrad degree in Business from UMD, College Park. My passion for music comes from my love for God and my family and expressing joy, pain, love, sadness, peace, and every emotion I feel could connect with listeners in a positive way.


Love Music: We been hearing a lot about you and your upcoming song. We noticed you are starting to gain a lot of attention. How does it feel?

Being famous for no reason can play a horrible toll on one's mind. However, to create art that stands the test of time is the goal for me. Honestly, I prefer constructive feedback over flattery. Attention and popularity is a trap because it is here today and gone tomorrow. I'm just trying to make proud my family and those who have stood by me since day one.


Love Music: Can you please tell our readers more about this instrumental song?

"Towards New Beginnings" has taken about a year to create and perfect. It has gone through many changes. My inspiration comes from God, my wife, daughter, parents, cousins, aunts, uncles, those who I work with who helped shape the song, and life in general. I purposely took a long time to create this song so it could represent many emotions and not just one state of mind. There is hardship, perseverance, joy, peace, desire, and satisfaction all reflected in one expression of music. And when the world changed with the onset of Covid 19, the clarity for the meaning of the title "Towards New Beginnings" became clear to me. However, I am open to anyone interpreting my art however they feel.


Love Music: Any upcoming project?

TNB Vol. 2 will be the follow up in 2021.

Love Music: What has been one of the most exciting achievements of your career so far?

Getting to work in the studio as an assistant engineer with Philip Lawrence for his song "It's A Jungle Out Here" (https://youtu.be/RfRLAypDn9M) was very inspiring. I simply pressed record as Phil did his vocal takes and I gave my advice here and there. Phil's lead engineer Jeeves was amazing to watch work. Jeeves and Phil has such an amazing chemistry, and I learned so much that day about what it means to be a great vocal engineer like Jeeves.

It was one of the most wonderfully educational and inspiring days I've ever had in the studio. After that four hour session, the very next day I was in a stadium with my wife as Phil performed with Bruno Mars to a sold out arena crowd. That was definitely surreal two days that meant a lot for my education and growth as a producer and engineer.


Love Music: What’s your goal in life that you want to achieve next?

Raise my kid will be polite, wise, and strong emotionally and physically.


Love Music: What motivates you to do your best work?

I can only try to outdo myself every time. That's the only way I feel I can improve. If I focus too much on others and trying to be the best, that can not be nearly as productive as me trying to outdo myself every time I create something.


Love Music: Did you choose this industry as a career or as a hobby?

It started as a hobby, but when people started paying me it became more viable as a profession.


Love Music: Everybody needs time out. What do you do in your free time?

Cook with Home Chef and hang out with my family.

Who is Talwiinder?

Talwiinder Singh Sidhu says he doesn’t know what genre his music fits into. And he doesn’t care if his genre has no name. He simply creates his music from the heart and lets the words flow from his pen to paper. His aesthetic is mysterious and artful but also makes a statement.

Talwiinder left his home state of Punjab in Northern India when he was only fourteen years old. He migrated to the United States of America, a country vastly different to what he was accustomed to in India. Punjab is famous for its rich culture, iconic Sikhs and of course Punjabis. These roots stayed with Talwiinder and when he started writing music. Unlike many artistes who slowly lose their identity to fit in, Talwiinder defies all odds and stays true to himself and his music.

He incorporates the vibrancy of Punjabi music with modern beats and lyrics. They are deep and meaningful tracks that also have a rhythm you can dance to.  His music isn’t confined to a target audience and knows no bounds. His unique tracks span age groups and touches the hearts of both the young and the older generation. With a growing following on major music platforms, his music is also catching the interest of a global audience defying language barriers.

For other Punjabis like him who live in foreign lands, far away from home, his music takes them back to their roots. For him, he simply wants to write music and share his art with anyone who is searching for something real amongst the fake, something more than just songs, but a whole new experience. “My music will help me find my people” – Talwiinder Singh Sidhu.
