s/he – Good To Get Away

Well I have a soft spot for singer Michelle Chamuel (aka. Reverb Junkie and lead singer for Ella Riot) for many reasons. One of which is her delicate balance of words and emotion on her tracks. She always seems to manage to hit that “sweet spot” vocally and lyrically, with her tracks. And this track is no different. From her upcoming full length which shes her teaming up with fellow Ella Riot bandmate Tyler Duncan, under the name of “s/he“, is Good To Get Away, enjoy!

Hans Zimmer (ft.The Reverb Junkie) – Angelica [Part of the Plan] (Odd Year Edit)

If you like Gotan Project or the Cafe Del Mar series of chillout music with International flavor, then this track will be a win for you. The track makes use of stems from the soundtrack written and produced by Hans Zimmer from the movie: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Also features Rodrigo y Gabriela on acoustic guitars. With this mix, The Reverb Junkie made an incredible arrangement and went one step further by writing her song on-top of it. From which I took the track and added all the percussive elements, hence the “Odd Year Edit” on the track name.
