My Rest Day

Friday is a day of rest from uni and work from me, unless Farai or Minh decide to want to have their lessons today.
A girl from NZ, called Mandy came over today. She's a singer from the Con as well and writes very lovely originals. She was looking for a pianist to record her originals with. Now, I shall go into a bit of my piano skills. I'm a good church pianist[contemporary], I'm a good pop pianist[because I'm sensitive and delicate, as well as quite groovy], I'm a reasonable jazz pianist[Not really a full on one. Too unskilled in the voicings and rhythm aread], I'm a rusty classical pianist[trying to get back into it]. So she wanted pop. I thought, I'm good at recording usually, both piano and voice. So I decided to help her out. She seemed quite happy with what I could play for her songs.
Hopefully she will be a divine appointment. Her style is not too different from mine, writing wise, and she wants to open her own studio next time and hire teachers at a good rate. I told her to look me up if she wanted to do that.
I never take future opportunities in the music industry too seriously unless they really carry through. You can't bet your life on them. All the time, you have to put your security in God and not in people, and DEFINITELY not in the industry. I am in this industry for a reason. GOD HELP ME...I NEED YOU.

Fear and Faith

I wish I could get rid of this feeling of underlying fear that grips me once in a while. After every high there is an inevitable crash. Or when I wake up, it's really hard to face the day not quite knowing what you should do or what the goal is in the end.  I can picture this trembling kid in my mind, who's quite desperate to cling on to something for safety and comfort. And that kid is me. But the kid's alone. And there's no one to actually to hang on to, and nothing to hug, not even a pillow. But the kid is also wary of clinging on to anything because that might prove disastrous, as it has in the past. You get entangled with unnecessary things or people So,  Kid is stuck with just holding nothing. Waiting.  I mean, it's not like God never warned or foretold that this journey would be lonely, I'd be seemingly alone, but He would be with me. I would look like I was wobbly but He would uphold me. The only time the fear really alleviates is when God's pres...

陶喆 David Tao Mash Up 2 - 流沙/普通朋友 （by Charis蔡佳靈 + Nray 胡恩瑞 + 森林ㄌㄜˋ園）

高中會重覆聽100遍的歌就是‘普通朋友' 和 ‘流沙‘ ☺️ 很開心可以和  森林ㄌㄜˋ園 團長阿綠把這兩首百聽不厭的歌串在一起，重編成band sound的歌；然後和  N-Ray 胡恩瑞  &樂手朋友們呈現出來。謝謝有才的朋友們的參與！也再次謝謝負責攝影間接 Rick Lin 。希望你們會喜歡～歡迎分享、留言、訂閱、按 💗  ！也可以跟我們說你們要接下來聽的歌 （那些點‘沙灘’的朋友我已看見你們的留言！) I remember re-playing 'Regular Friends' and 'Everything's gone' so many times on the way to school. They were such classic hits! Here's the 2nd David Tao mashup video we produced. My gifted singer/songwriter/keyboardist friend Green Lee sat down with me to re-arrange it together (guess which other song we used as a base for the two tracks 😁 ?). Had lots of fun recording and shooting this with my talented pals! Please help us share around, and do subscribe if you haven't yet!
