NIRVANA by Various Artist
The title of this album is "NIRVANA," which is defined as "a state of perfect happiness; an ideal or idyllic state." I've been inspired by 'Saint Heron,' a compilation album that Solange Knowles put together that features some indie R&B/Soul artists. Out of any compilation I've ever heard, it has to be my favorite. The songs flow perfectly together....one after another. The vibe and the energy of the album are so DOPE!
I decided to do something similar to Saint Heron with NIRVANA. I found 17 AMAZING independent artist with different sounds and backgrounds and put them on one album that takes you on a musical journey. The intro "Influx" starts as a radio station that begins to play some of my favorite tunes. The final song of the radio mix is "Nirvana" by Sam Smith and it slows down to get you ready for the ride. To close out the album I got 3 of my closest friends together for a BEAUTIFUL outro titled "Nirvana". At the very end of it you hear me sing "Will you take me to Nirvana" and it kinda finishes where "Influx" leaves you hanging. My soul purpose for putting this album together is to get these wonderful indie artist more listeners and hopefully take them somewhere. Make sure you follow each and every artist on the album to check out there work and also stay updated on future projects. I hope you enjoy the ride.
PEACE
