Dark Corners Where We Find Particles Of Light Mix (+Download)
I created this mix in the span a couple of days, adding in many of the songs at the very end. I really enjoy the way it came together and hope you enjoy it as much, as well as support the amazing artists I have featured. We live in a world polarized by darkness and light.

Brandy Shanice has the sort of voice which pulls you to where she is in an instant. There is so much strength in her delivery that you feel her every word, regardless of your…

Danny Watts – Poetic Effusions
Take a gander through the ripples of my mind. Messenger Series Vol. 1 – Danny Watts This song is brilliant. I haven’t known much of anything about Danny Watts before now, besides his voice and intricate patterns of rhymes the delivers with it. I have been listening to this Messenger Series Vol. 1 for months because I feel it is so p e r f e c t and relatable as a human being. After watching this new visual for his song Poetic Effusions, it is simply my duty to pass it on to you.
