Angel Face (ft Terry Wigmore)
Last one tonight and the second to feature my old amigo Terry Wigmore. Got a late 70's smooth soul vibe to me, nice, laid back late night music. Well done Dawn Degs and Terry. Rated, Gibbo
Great vox indeed Terry. Great collab all round.
Terry, it doesn't surprised you nailed this vocal and Dawn baby, you da best on lyrics! Very cool "Sound of Philadelphia" Just a quick note before I leave.
Great tune Here! Nice music to listen to and relax and let the worries drift away, perfect spot for me today.
Gosh...I remember trying to sing this with fear and trepidation as a new artist on mp3u working with two artists who had been such a dynamic presence on mp3u for years before me. Derek's music always makes me want to sing along, and rendering Dawn's lyrics is like trying to squish inside someone's head and feel the words the way they they felt them. Kudos to both of you for giving me the chance to join the collab....never looked back although there are more years to look back to these days. This is a wonderful and timely homage to Maurice White of Earth Wind and Fire...and my childhood friend, Norman Grizzle, ( he was my best man and passed away nearly 35 years ago from Leukemia), who's father's vinyl collection included much Soul/RnB/ Jazz - my introduction to this music. This track is also my first and only vocoderized vocal too :) Thanks for the reminder, of things along the journey of life, Dawn ...Happy Birthday..,Wednesday? Ah "Happy Birthday!" anyway, can't celebrate enough :)
Whoah....haven't heard anything like this from any of ya, ha ha! And you handle it perfectly...smooth, soulful, sexy. Great collab guys, easy rate.
Hey-up! This is a new style for our 'un-pigeon-hole-able Terry!! ;-) Great vocal! Ive never heard him sing quite like this...and believe you me...Ive heard many guises of our Sir T. Wonderful song throughout...up to date... Classy backing...Im well impressed with this-un! :-) K
Ahh cute lyrics here Dawn and Terry venturing into vocoder territory and vocal fx plus a totally different style is brave but you pull it off. Good on you. A track like this from Degs is hard to resist. Thoroughly enjoyable collab...L&B;
Excellent collaboration. Excellent backing/production, excellent vocals and excellent lyrics. Oh, did I say I thought this was excellent?
I am most fortunate to have had a chance to work with some of the most talented musicians on the internet, in many different genres, ranging from pop/rock to light opera. Some of my collaborators include: Juri Rosenfeld, Dawn Diamond, Erik Rosenfeld, Amy Caldwell, Mark Ellis, Boyana Bjoern, Ron Gletherow, Scott Slater, Svenni Bjorgvins, Tom Van Mele (tumc), Wesley De Page, Mark Holley, Mark Alexander, AndyF, Rob Smith, Tony DeLecce, Jim DeLecce, Mykyndred (Mike Round), Deggsy, His Master's Choice (Peo), Mike Azzopardi, Graeme Cammack, Elina Rosenfeld, Allan Bell (Geiger167), David Joel Carter, Craig (Pidgeman) Matthews, Vincent Fidele (Riddle), Dan Michaelson, Tony Miller, Deon Ashton, MoonTurnedBlue(Phil), Guilherme Shroter, Dave Lunbeck, James Clark, Dave (Mezzer) Meredith, KtA, Christy, Terry Wigmore.James Oakwood, Joseph Rodriguez and in production department: James Oakwood, Sal Salvedore and Miush Skirman....and many more instrumentalists and vocalists all of whom have my utmost respect and gratitude. The list keeps growing and if your name's not here and we have collaborated, give me a prod...it's tough keeping up!!
Juri Rosenfeld and I have written many songs together in many genres and with others (most frequently with Dawn Diamond, Amy Caldwell and Erik Rosenfeld) we now have 4 CDs for sale, the latest of which is Coming Home.
Mark Ellis and I have collaborated on over 30 songs together, mostly in the folk/pop genre.
Boyana Bjoern and I have a collection of modern songs that are professionally produced. One of those...Only 17 won the Bubblegum Pop contest in January/February 2016.
And me? I am just happy to go along for the ride. As a lifetime writer, as author, poet and lyricist, writing is in my blood so if you ever need a lyric, let me know.
After months of waiting, our first professionally produced album, entitled Two Dawns One Day is out and I for one am thrilled with the quality of not only the final mix/mastering etc but of the art work and packaging too. There are 15 tracks which include 13 with lyrics by yours truly, 1 lyric is Juri/Dawn Diamond collab and 1 track is instrumental. Martin Gallagher features on the title song and all the other vocals are Dawn's. Only 1 track was not composed or written by Juri and that is the 2 Dawns collaboration of I'll Love You More. Other musicians were involved in the making of this album and the support of family and friends has been tremendous but had it not been for the vision and determination of Juri Rosenfeld, the album would never have materialise ...bless you Juri for I have never been more proud.
As the opening vocals hit my ears I'm struck by the 'Britishness' of the sound. It conveys to me shades of a Ray Davis (The Kinks) composition wise, which immediately warms me to to it. The intro is nicely out of kilter and misleads the listener as to it's true intent. As Amy's vocals ride in you are carried off on a wonderful musical sonjourn. A small crit on my behalf (opinion
I have long been a fan of songwriter Carole Douglas (Bolton Songbank on Soundclick), a very polished and professional composer. There is nothing I like better than a great song, and given that there are millions of musicians around us, there are very few songwriters. Finding the two Dawns (Sinclair and Diamond) on MP3 Unsigned has been a big pleasure and I look forward to their new col
I was only thinking to myself the other day that I had reviewed loads of Dawn Sinclair tracks but always by other people, which is not really the same thing at all. As you can gather, Dawn is a lyricist/songwriter whose tracks do have a certain something about them, all least the collabs I have come across anyway. We are talking about LOTS of those here. Dawn has worked with Dawn
First off, I have got to make it clear that I think this is an absolutely awesome piece of music, despite the few very minor faults I shall be noting below. The girls have genuinely done themselves very proud on this one and I found this track to be thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable to listen to. Any's voice is delightful and the harmonies are simple ear candy. Anyway, down to the nit
Dawn Sinclair will be a very familiar name to most regular users of Mp3Unsigned. Dawn is a lyricist who has worked with a great many artists on the site, myself included, and in very many different genre's of music. The 'Team', as Dawn likes to call it, on this track consists of Amy Caldwell, Dawn Diamond on guitar and of course Dawn Sinclair providing the lyrics. The mix on this version has
Well, this one is the best of the best from our two talented Dawn's. The lyric is heartfelt and poignant, as Dawn Sinclair knows only too well how to do. The melody, performance and simple arrangement by Dawn Diamond is exquisite. This one was a joy to the ears.
Thanks gals!
My commnet section says it all. Real nice work.
2Dawns1Day By Dawn Sinclair featuring Martin Gallagher. What was it about The Beatles? Why do songs that are merely influenced by them still sound so powerful, so emotive? I have no idea. You must have an opinion of sorts, assuming you even like the band, that is. This is definitely one of those powerfully emotive songs, with a strong sense of that classic sound running deep within. Rig
Dawn Sinclair, where to start with her! Dawn is a different kettle of fish to the majority of artists on the site, as she is a lyricist. She does not perform on any of her tracks, so as you can see different to most people here. But ever since she has arrived she has shown what a prolific song writer and collaborator she is. Gathering around herself a group of 5 or 6 musicians a
Dawn Sinclair - Teach Me like A Child Latin music. My only experience of latin music made by someone who isn't actually latin is limited. The late Kirsty MacColl and, err... That's it, I guess. The best way I can safely describe this track, overall, is shiny. Shiny, happy, fresh, uplifting and gleaming like polished silver. I can really sit back and relax when music like this is on the radio
Wow! Teach Me Like a Child is a joy to listen to. Dawn Sinclair clearly has a gift for the written word and it is exploited beautifully in this song. The lyrics should speak to anyone who has lost the innocence and wonderment of viewing the world as a child does where their thoughts roam wild and free. It's a great reminder for any of us who have be
Alessandra is a track by Juri Rosseneld accompanied by Chris Maxwell featuring the vocals written by Dawn Sinclair. First off, i am rating with a 7 equaling an average radio quality track by a professional. The first thing that cathces my ear on this track is the musicmanship. It is very strong. timing is spot on, vocals are delivered brilliantly. Chris Maxwell is an extre
I WISH THERE WAS A CD AVALIABLE OF THIS GIRLS WORK, RATHER THAN A SITE. IT SEEMS VERY CLEAR TO ME THAT THIS SONG AS WELL AS ALL THE OTHER TRACKS, HAVE A DEFINATIVE EDGE WHICH IS SUPERIOR TO SOME OF THE CURRENT MUSIC AVALIABLE. THE GREAT EMPHASIS ON FEEL, IS WELL NOTED IN MY BOOK. THE INSTRUMENTATION ALONE COULD HOLD INTEREST, AND WHOEVER MIXED THIS, KNOWS A THING OR TWO ABOUT PRODUCTION VALU
THIS TO ME, IS PURE ART, AND I LOVE IT.
