Suzanne in ABQ Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 https://soundcloud.com/spazzy-originals/so-moving This is my son. He wrote and recorded this shortly before leaving home to go to college this fall. "Home is starting to feel alien -- this place I used to know..." "I may never see this place again, at least not the way it's been." Tears at my heartstrings just a bit. I'm proud of him, though. He's at Full Sail University, pursuing his passion, studying Recording Arts. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6packofun Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 (edited) My daughter likes electro swing. Not sure if this qualifies, but I like it. Parov Stelar (First song is kinda slow so go to the next two if you want a better feel for it. :) ) This is one group my dd likes, Caravan Palace. (It's animated but there is some violence and sensuality in this video, sorry. Not too bad.) Edited October 23, 2016 by 6packofun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
