Well, plenty--that is---if your name is </span><span style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;"><span style="color: #ff6666;">LaDeana Michelle</span>.</span><span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;"> Besides being beautiful, with the voice of an angel and endless talents that should have been honed at Julliard, this phenomenal woman is also a great cook. Sexy, smooth, smart, savvy and swift in the kitchen. We’ve been following the beauty over the 2008 holidays, since she turned up in her favorite waterside city of Tiburon, CA, followed by a brief sighting of her in Montecito, CA—home of Oprah Winfrey and other power-packed celebs. Maybe you caught a glimpse of her taking in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”. We know someone was definitely up close and personal with her, when they stole her suitcase, at some point after Christmas, alongside Highway 5 (luckily there were no valuables inside). Despite preparing a large New Year’s feast of all the soul food one could eat, LaDeana Michelle is gearing up for her 2009 debut album release.</span><span style="font-size: 130%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;">THAT is what we’ve been waiting for.</span><span style="font-size: 130%;"> </span><span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;"><br /><br />LaDeana Michelle’s highly anticipated 2009 debut album will show her depths as a songwriter, dynamically creative arranger and producer. Her most recent offering of <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #ff9900;">“Believe”</span>—still garnering rave reviews---surprised many people in 2008, over the Christmas holiday. <br /><br /></span><img style="vertical-align: text-top;" src="http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/1creativemind/BELIEVE-AvailableNowPTINTDarker.jpg" alt="" width="643" height="482" /><br /><span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;"><br />At the mere mention that <span style="font-weight: bold; color: #ff9900;">“Believe”</span> was going to deliver inspirational fumes, many expected the usual ballad covered in deep, sentimental syrup. What people received, was a head-nodding slow groove one can flip on in the car and ride to. Such is typical of LaDeana Michelle. Expect the unexpected, but expect to be pleased in the process. She delivers.</span> <span style="font-size: 130%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;">In addition to putting the finishing touches on her forthcoming album, LaDeana Michelle, fresh off of a 500-pix photo shoot for January, is planning a food & toy drive launch for underprivileged children that will span to Christmas 2009, is gearing up for three blockbuster films, contemplating an international music tour---all while planning an upcoming novel. She has also been actively gearing up for her multi-million dollar business and commercial real estate ventures with her long-time partners.</span><span style="font-size: 130%;"> </span><span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;">Fans of the cocoa-colored siren will enjoy the release of her official MySpace and Bebo sites in January and can also actively participate in her official blog spot. <br /><br />Stay current on LaDeana Michelle’s personal blogs through her Soundclick page here:</span> <span style="font-size: 130%;"><a href="http://www.soundclick.com/members/default.cfm?member=ladeana%20michelle"> <span style="color: #33ffff;">http://www.soundclick.com/members/default.cfm?member=ladeana%20michelle</span></a> </span><span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;"><br /><br />Be sure to frequent LaDeana Michelle’s official artist website at <a href="http://www.ladeanamichelle.com/">www.ladeanamichelle.com</a> and her official fan site at <a href="http://www.ladeanamichelle.net/">www.ladeanamichelle.net </a>for all the latest news buzz, music, photos, fan questions/answers, contests, exclusive e-club sign-up information and much more.</span> <span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;"><br /><br />Questions?

Planning to conceive? It’s one of those romantic songs. This song, my friends, will place you right on time for the upcoming love quarter.

It's gonna be a good one.</span> <span style="font-size: 130%; color: #33ffff;"><br /><br />Anthony ‘Hoss” Valentino</span>
Oh **** I've got sore fingers! How in hell am I going to make a roll-up with these? It's alright for you real guitarists but my fingers prefer the touch of ivory. Anyway suffice it to say that my old Mr Jackson was sitting there looking all blue and not too metallic under the coat of dust that had settled on him and making me feel guilty and how long is it since I did a real guitar song...? so I blew off the dust and polished him up a bit, and then he made me play this song I've called Walk Away. I'm not used to mixing guitar tunes. All the controls WAY up high on the multiband to let it all come through, so I ended up with a lot of lower reverb... ah who cares anyway...
Hope you like it. I did. And don't ask me how many takes to get the (rather easy) solo just right...
Happy new year, all!
Chris

I found a new site which offers many features (still learning to use the features there) and I re-design my official website to integrate the two project FANTASY JOURNEY and SOLARDREAMS. You can check it out at :-<br /><br />www.piperon.net.ms<br /><br />It is still under heavy construction and when I have all loaded up, I will post a blog here again. Meantime happy surfing.<br /><br />PS : PLEASE remember to sign my guestbook when you are there, million thanks in advance.<br /><br />With million of love from Singapore.<br />Piperon - One and Only spiritual flute player on Earth.
Iam an amateur digital composer. I usually work alone with my PC and other critical equipment. When I was young enough I used to play organ in small bands. Later I learned to use Personal Computers exclusively for my work (no relation with music). Day by day I loved computers. There was a period I was a computer maniac. Some day I combined the two hobbies (music - computers) in order to make my music. <br />I don't have professional tools , a good PC , two midi keyboards , a pair of KRK monitors , a really good headphone set , a microphone and a mixer are enough for me. Regarding the software I mainly use free stuff. There are some very good free software tools out there. Computer music magazine offers good stuff too. I also use commercial demos and very few commercial projects.<br />The singer in my songs is usually my daughter - an amateur too.
My favourite free stuff :<br />EMU Proteus VX , Independence Free , Nebula CM , some DSK vst instruments , Abakos 2 , Artemis , Cygnous , IXOX Flute, Evol , Free Amp etc
