Fling Chune FRIDAY - 11:11

Yes, yes, y'aaaallll--it's Friday once again! *doing the holy happy dance*  It's been an interesting week... the beginning of Lent and the beginning of my 'blogging career'(?).  Before you roll your eyes and say "Here we go with another Linty Lenten post!", just hear me out!  I don't observe it, per se, but lately, I've been turned on to the Biblical significance of 40-day time frames. So while all of that is swirling around in my head, a friend texts me about dedicating this Lent to prayer.  I took it as confirmation from God... More to come on Lent, prayer and 40 days later.

So one of my blog posts got picked up by none other than SALTY Magazine... Excuse me while I go pass out!  This is such an awesome opportunity and I praise God for it! *sigh*  You've probably read it already, but my piece on Molting is in the Desires issue as a guest contribution. Y'all go check it--the whole issue is bangin'!

Now, on to some BIG CHUNE!  #applause  I gotta praise the Lord for some Pandora because I have it to thank for this week's selection.  One of my fave stations is nouveau flamenco guitar--kinda like what smooth jazz is to classic jazz--because, well, it's just freakin' awesome!  The fierce intensity of this musical genre goes above and beyond lyrics; it's as if words float into my head with the unique tone of each guitar string. 

This week's chune is a monster composition with the simple title "11:11".  The guitar hero duo Rodrigo y Gabriela transport you to another realm with a unique tempo that initially catches you off-guard, then drops you into a pool of auditory bliss. Your ears will thank you for this!

be blessed,

Fling Chune FRIDAY: Via (acoustic)

Yes, yes, y'all--it's FRIIIIIDAY! It's been a tiring stretch for me plus I have to work this weekend. *sigh*  So my week isn't technically over yet.  But thank God for another Friday, all the same.

Earlier in the week, I was blessed to Tumbl upon Level 3:16--thanks SALTY! Once again, another artist that has me wondering where the heck I've been. SMH  I really need to step my music game up... y'all pray for me!

Anyway, my ears were titillated by the awesomeness of this week's chune. Why?  Simply put--raw talent!  Apparently, this is the stripped-down version of a studio track with plenty of bass and background 'noise', but I'm so glad I heard this one first.  These kids (Are they kids? They look 'youthful'...) are truly anointed as their music flows effortlessly from within. Legit spttin' over the guitar and those vocals are insane!! Luv, love, LOVE IT!  Makes me wanna join a band and sing my sanctified butt off! LOL  But I'll leave it to them... for now. :o)

Be blessed,
pVI

Fling Chune FRIDAY: Adoration (So Amazing)

Happy Friday to one and all!  Thankful to put yet another week behind me... it's been quite a week.  Some things didn't go as planned at work in addition to my flash drive getting corrupted. Backing up is crucial, people--lemme tell ya!  But things could've gone terribly worse, so I'm thankful.

I'm feeling mellow and this chune is perfectly that.  Forever Jones brings a chill vibe to worship with Adoration (So Amazing) that is nothing short of soothing.  This acoustic track does have traces of India.Arie to it, just for  a frame of reference but all of the soul in this song points directly to Jesus.

Enjoy and have a blessed weekend!
