Music Monday (feel free to add your own music)

in musicmonday •  7 years ago 

The aim is simple, to banish those Monday blues with an eclectic range of music chosen by Steemit friends both old and new.

Every Monday I intend to post a music video (and a few words explaining my choice) I invite you to join me by doing same in the comments section below. As the forum (hopefully) grows my aim is that we begin to inspire our fellow Steemians to broaden their musical horizons by listening to the music that inspires us. The only thing I ask is that (where possible) every song we listen to is played nice and loudly on headphones or speakers in order that we capture it’s true essence.

As more Steemians join this venture there is also going to be the possibility of being rewarded for our musical tastes via the amount of upvotes each song receives. That said please never feel awkward about posting a track, a guilty pleasure or even your own musical ventures. I have an extremely wide range of musical interests but also understand that music like beauty is very much in the eye of the beholder. As such I may play my chosen song, but who am I to define what constitutes good music.

Hey I hope everyone has enjoyed a great weekend! My choice this week is one that reminds me of days gone. With it's haunting melodies and dreamlike quality, this is one track that makes me yearn for the carefree halcyon summer days of my youth. I hope you enjoy.

This isn't about making me Steem so please save your upvotes and reward the songs that you feel are worthy, although equally if my song stands out to you then I'd appreciate the vote. Any resteems would be much appreciated, all are invited and welcomed to join us in sharing and listening to a diverse range of music.

Welcome to Bassnectar. I heard him for the first time while at Burning Man. Love this remix he did. Listen for the insane beat drop a little past the 3:30 mark.

Fooooooking LOVE Bassnectar!!!

Man this was yet another brilliant choice @patriciorayaz ad that beat drop!! I didn't get the chance to hear this last night but man it's certainly stood me in good stead this morning!! An excellent and different choice my friend, thank you for the music.

Thank you kind Sir!!

That was a cool song @perceptualflaws, I have never heard it before, it was soothing and floaty.... The video was pretty trippy too...must have gotten ahold of some old film to make it, I'd like to make a vid like that but our fam never had a video camera.

Here's my contribution: Everything Now (sums up our culture to a "t")

Hey @lyndsaybowes nice to see you my friend, glad you enjoyed my choice .. I like it's daydream type vibe. And as for your choice, it's an inspired one and equally a track that really captures the essence of the moment. Brilliant and inspired lyrics and beautiful music .. what's not to love? :D Thank you for the music.

Adding a little funky summer, here's a throwback sunny tune I hope you enjoy.

Yours was very haunting too, sweet melodies that would be awesome to hum along to while driving along my ocean road mid-day :)

He @amymya another great choice! I love the beats and her voice has an almost hypnotic feel to it. Excellent stuff!! I love the thought of a mid-day ocean road, sun shining, music playing, windows down and the wind gently tugging at your hair :) .. One day I'll put together a music monday playlist and simply hit the road .. one day :) Thank you for the music @amymya

Exellent little piece of summer vibes right here. Nice simple guitar with some variation to keep things interesting over a simple beat, but what I really like is that string section that picks things up towards the end. It has this endless quality about it and I like it.

As for me, I'd like to share a tune I finished up last night. A heavy Techno track I'm calling Lets Go Luxury. Hope you enjoy it. You can find it over at https://steemit.com/techno/@iamevilradio/g059vair or

Thank you @iamevilradio I'm glad you enjoyed my pick this week ... I also enjoyed your very cool slice of minimalist techno. I used to be really into the techno and trance scene and this really takes me back to a day when I was a child of the strobe :) Great tune, great talent .. thank you for the music

Thank you for listening. I'm pretty happy how it came out.

Omg PF, a child of the Strobe!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Love it <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 Me too...

Hey @lyndsaybowes you dark horse! :D Those were the days eh? Wild and carefree, I wouldn't take aback a second. I'm sure we have some stories to share :D

Ooooh yes my buddy, I'm jealous because I'm sure it was more fun in the underground where you are!!

Great choice on the Still Corners!

Here is the new Underworld. This guy can make a $100 video production cool!


Very nice @sequentialvibe .. excellent stuff, you can't go wrong with a bit of Underworld .. I spent much of my youth dancing to these guys and you're right .. this video couldn't get any cooler if it donned a coat made of ice cubes and moved to Antartica :) The perfect antidote to a monotonous Monday at work. Excellent choice and thank you for the music.

Oh go on then :-)

Happy Monday good people. smile on.

Another stone cold classic @deliberator .. I've always loved this track and it never fails to raise a big smile .. tonight included :D Thank you for the music my friend it's much appreciated and I loved your choice this week!!

Cheers bro, hope you had a good weekend with the friends, stay awesome.

I know we're trying to get rid of the monday blues so I'm not sure how well this song fits here but I just found it and It's just too amazing not to share...Black hole sun cover by Norah Jones

Thank you for sharing @deadmagic .. this was a great rendition of a great track, a real contrast to the original but it just works. Excellent choice, thank you for the music.

we love perceptual flaws :)

Man, that was a beautifully epic track! powerful stuff. I was going to lay back and listen but the video is great as well! Excellent choice my friend and thank you for the music.

Yes, both lyrics and video are amazing.

One of my favorite makes me sob tunes <3

Sob like cry? Sorry don't know all meaning variations of that word, so don't know in what do you mean that.

Yeah. It makes me cry, brings up a lot of emotions for me.

Hey @crossroads what a brilliant choice my friend!! This is the kind of journey I would love to take, just a sweet reminder of how beautiful life can be :D Thank you for the music my friend.

Chill to Enigma - Sadeness

My friend, yet another inspired choice of musical genius .. I love this track!! It's like a beautiful river of music, gently tugging at your soul and requesting that you float along with it's cascading waters of wonder. Thank you for the music @palikari123

Jason Mraz dan Colbie Caillat - Lucky


I really like the song Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat, their voices are both very harmonious and beautiful. hearing this song can start luck for us all.

Hey my friend, you've made a great choice here the harmonies and beautiful voices work perfectly and promise to soothe away the tiredness of a busy day .. Thank you for the music @donirosayandi
