Last week I posted one of this guy's songs, because quite honestly, it was one of the best remixes I've ever heard (see "Shook"). What I didn't know was that the guy behind this remix was actually a 19 year-old college student from Virginia who also creates original tunes and has ridiculous talent. On his first album "Soon it Will be Cold Enough," he uses elements of jazz, hip-hop and down-tempo combined with violins, piano and samples. The result is beautiful. Listen for yourself below, I posted a few songs. The album is currently only available in Japan and can be purchased as an import, so if you like what you hear, buy his album so he has money to buy ramen noodles and booze, when he turns 21, of course.
Fellow music lovers, we've come a long way from mixtapes but I still look back on those days with fond memories. In this age of information overload, Carl Winslow vs. Science is an attempt to cut through the crap and recapture that simplicity and magic of hitting the record button and handing the tape off to your friend at recess.
Every week(ish), I'll share songs, albums and videos across multiple genres -- sans fluff -- Carl believes music speaks loudest when it speaks for itself. And please, if you like what you hear, support the artists by purchasing their music, attending their shows and most importantly, sharing it with others.
Thoughts, comments, suggestions? Are you listening to something cool that I don't even know about? Drop me an email.
