DJ Sava … great, great Romanian Music

Admin

You know, there is a word that says … “the success comes once but you prepare a life (or anyway some good years, too) for this”. And when the success comes after some intermediary phases usually lasts many years. First, when I heard this song – Sunshine … below is a remix which features DJ Sava and ConnectR I couldn’t believe that is Romanian. But, in the end I got along with the music success of “our people” so I said – great, another extraordinary tune. Check out this remix: … and the original version: Having a keen interest in … Continue reading DJ Sava … great, great Romanian Music

Shukar Collective @ “The Night of The AdEaters, Bucharest, 2008”

Admin

I like music and I like advertising. “The Night of The AdEaters” /”La Nuit Des Publivores”/”Noaptea Devoratorilor de Publicitate” is an event I like to attend every year. It is a professional duty to attend but also an opportunity to mix business and pleasure. The Night of the AdEaters is a show that now runs in more that 40 countries worldwide dedicated to showing the production of advertising among 60 different nationalities on the Big Screen and in a crazy atmosphere! It’s the opportunity to fling open a window on the world and for six hours to get a taste … Continue reading Shukar Collective @ “The Night of The AdEaters, Bucharest, 2008”

Smiley – a business perspective

Admin

The idea of this article came in June when I had a very different way of spending the afternoon in the day of my birthday: me and my wife were invited by Target Magazine, a magazine which publish success business stories and profiles of the success business people to attend their party for the annual awards. It was a different way to do it than in previous years but all was great: the atmosphere, the people, the club, everything. Here are some pictures: Tle live acts were a crew of dancers from Pro TV and Smiley, a member of Simplu … Continue reading Smiley – a business perspective

Eric B. & Rakim – biography, discography

Admin

Hip-hop trailblazers Eric B. and Rakim’s first single, “Eric B. Is President” (#48, 1986), sparked early debate on the legality of unauthorized, uncredited sampling when James Brown sued to prevent the duo’s use of a fragment of his music. It also established Brown’s back catalog as a hip musical mining ground for a new generation of hip-hop programmers. With Rakim’s relaxed vocal delivery (“Microphone Fiend,” “Paid in Full”) and rhymes that have been described as “existential,” together with Eric B.’s deft turntable manipulation, the duo became one of the most acclaimed hip-hop acts of the late ’80s. The two met … Continue reading Eric B. & Rakim – biography, discography
