love it when super talented artists get together in the 1Take studio and create something special… and we definitely love this track, UK rapper H20 collaborates with singer songwriter Bruno Charles featuring Dot Major on percussion… nice!
oh my goodness, these guys are talented… the oh so wonderful New Yorkers Pearl and the Beard perform The Lament of Coronado Brown in the 1Take studio during their first ever UK London… we filmed a number of videos with them while they were in town and we are all now big fans… we’ll release the rest as soon as they are ready so keep an eye out for them…
- Don’t tell the readers what they already know about life.
- Don’t assume you’re the only one in the world who suffers.
- Some of the greatest poems in the language are sonnets and poems not many lines longer than that, so don’t overwrite.
- The use of images, similes and metaphors make poems concise. Close your eyes, and let your imagination tell you what to do.
- Say the words you are writing aloud and let your ear decide what word comes next.
- What you are writing down is a draft that will need additional tinkering, perhaps many months, and even years of tinkering.
- Remember, a poem is a time machine you are constructing, a vehicle that will allow someone to travel in their own mind, so don’t be surprised if it takes a while to get all its engine parts properly working — Charles Simic
…the same could be said for writing a song… or actually probably writing anything “Close your eyes, and let your imagination tell you what to do”…
A little bit late but Happy Birthday to Ronnie Page (he would have turned 65 on 1st April)… this is awesome, enjoy
Recently reviewed in Dazed & Confused by John Kennedy as “a magazine editor’s dream… One of the best unsung artists around.” You can listen to more of her music at her official website here.
One of my favourite songs at the moment! I love the acoustic guitar and raspy voice combo. Great chords and easy to sing along to.
The guy never fails to amaze…

Great stuff from Maia Vidal, thanks to Alex Ainslie for posting this. The 1TakeTV team had the very great pleasure of filming the lovely Maia live at a very intimate show at Discos Paradiso in Barcelona last week and can confirm that she is as charming as she is talented and beautiful… will be posting some videos up here soon.
