BABY SONG : LULLABY

Hello ! Do you have any memories that when you are young, you did listen to lullaby? If it is me, I do remember that I had listened to lullaby. But then, even though I am already in aged of twenties, I actually still love to listen to lullabies. It can calm my feeling and help me feel ease in other way.  



A lullaby or cradle-song, also spelled cradle song, is a soothing song or piece of music, usually played or sung to children or adults. The purposes of lullabies vary. In some societies they are used to pass down cultural knowledge or tradition. Moreover, a lullaby is such a soft and soothing song that mostly been sang to an infant or small child. In lullabies usually have repetitive lyrics. Lullabies basically could be know as baby song as well.

Furthermore, lullabies have such an intimate connection between the singer and the baby. They let the baby know that all is well, that there is someone there to care for them, and that they can sleep. They are reassurance of security and a wonderful way to signal that it is now time to sleep or be calm.
 In other words, they are a form of communication that sends a message much more than the simple song itself. They are expressions of love and security that are understood long before the words have meaning to the infant. The melody itself actually could make us fall to sleep easily. 


Famous lullabies songs :

  1. Kumbaya
  2. Baa Baa Black Sheep
  3. Swing Low Sweet Chariot
  4. Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
  5. Hush Little Baby
  6. Brahm's Lullaby
  7. All through The Night
  8. All the pretty Little Horses
  9. Toora Loora Loora
  10. Sleep My Baby
  11. The Moon Lullaby
  12. All Night, All Day

From the movies, the viewer usually will also be attracted to Hindustan songs that actually were a beautiful and somehow catchy to ear. 

Bollywood film music is called filmi music where from Hindi that give meaning "of films". Songs from Bollywood movies are generally pre-recorded by professional playback singers, with the actors then lip synching the words to the song on-screen, often while dancing. As for example, Shah Rukh Khan that really famous in Malaysia where almost all of his songs from movies get such a huge attention such as in Mohabatein but the songs actually did not be sang by him but by professional playback singers. The songs usually had been added with dance.

In Malaysia, I pretty sure that a lot of people will recognized the movie from Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol which is Dilwale. From the movie, the songs which are “Janam Janam” and “Gerua” got such a big responded from Malaysian. Together with the success, there are even Malaysia artist that cover on that particular song, “Janam Janam.” Down here, I list out some Hindustan music that actually quite famous especially among their fans.

ELECTRONIC : DANCE MUSIC

Hello ~ This entry will be exposed about dance music genre. Sometimes I do listen to these kinds of music especially when I am so excited or just because I want to hear it. This kinds of beat often used in party and been used to make people become more excited. Do you actually listen to this kind of genre by the way ? Let not discuss about it yet but let proceed to know better about dance music genre.



(Electronic) dance music is a broad set of percussive music genres that largely inherit from 1970s disco music and, to some extent, the experimental pop music of Kraftwerk. Such music was originally borne of and popularized via regional nightclub scenes in the 1980s. It is constructed by means of electronic instruments such as synthesizers, drums machines and sequencers, and generally emphasizes the unique sounds of those instruments, even when mimicking traditional acoustic instrumentation. It sometimes encompasses music not primarily meant for dancing, but derived from the dance-oriented styles.

 Dance music is typically composed using computers and synthesizers, and rarely has any physical instruments played live for the track, instead this is replaced by sampled percussive beats or phrases, the latter often being cut up beyond their original rhythms, or digital/electronic sounds. Dance music typically ranges from 120bpm up to 200bpm.

Dance music is categorized by music journalists and fans alike as an ever-evolving plethora of named genres, styles and sub-styles. Some genres, such as techno, house, trance, electro, breakbeat, drum and bass, Italo disco, and Eurobeat (closely related to Italo disco) are primarily intended to promote dancing. Others, such as IDM, glitch and trip-hop, are more experimental and tend to be associated more with listening than dancing. Dance genre widely used not only for dancing but also in others occasion because it have a catchy and interactive tones and melodies on it. So here, I had prepared a list of few famous dance music .

Dance music  :

  1. I Took a Pill in Ibiza  (Seeb Remix).Mike Posner
  2. I gotta feeling 
  3. Middle (feat. Bipolar Sunshine)
  4. Show me love (Dago Remix)
  5. Don't Let Me Down (feat. Daya)
  6. Crazy - Klaypex
  7. Sugar (feat. Francesco Yates)
  8. Drop the bass - Urban Assault


















OST : SOUNDTRACK

Assalammualaikum~ I will write about soundtrack for this entry. In fact, i have always loved film and TV soundtracks. Since then, I often was introduced with the artist that I haven’t heard of before as it provide an attention-grabbing selection of songs and artists with a common mood or theme.


The term soundtrack can refer to several things, depending on use. In the broadest sense it simply means everything you hear in the movie - sound effects, dialog, music. This meaning is usually applied in a more technical setting, in reference to the sound as opposed to the visuals. Soundtrack can also refer to the entirety of the music in the film, encompassing score and songs that were either licensed or written for the film. Confusingly enough, oftentimes record companies will release a soundtrack from a movie which does not include any of the score. Generally that's because people are more interested in listening to songs from the movie that were written to stand alone, as opposed to score which was written to be part of the whole of the film. So the term soundtrack can also refer to only the songs in a movie, excluding the score that also sometimes called background score, background music, film music or incidental music which is original music written specifically to accompany a film.

Most of the movies or film today will used a lot kinds of sound or music in the movies basically with the intention to keep audiences engaged and in-the-moment without being too distracting. Somehow, the songs were great to listen then others songs and it can recall to that particular movie itself. So, next time you watch your favorite movies or television series, let try giving more attention to the soundtrack. Not only you could acknowledge some new artists or interesting music genre that you might never like before but at the same times, you can appreciate on how much care and effort that been served to creating just right atmosphere.

MUSICAL : OPERA

Assalammualaikum guys ~ Did you know what is Opera? Some of us might said that it is some sort of musical with such a loud ways of singing or maybe just a music. If you don’t really know about this genre  where I also actually did not know much about it too so let us together learn something new or add more knowledge about Opera genre right now. Let's go guys !!!



Opera is a staged drama set to music in its entirety, made up of vocal pieces with instrumental accompaniment and usually with orchestral overtures and interludes. In some operas the music is continuous throughout an act; in others it is broken up into discrete pieces, or “numbers,” separated either by recitative (a dramatic type of singing that approaches speech) or by spoken dialogue. The singers vocal, uses of sound and the dynamic of voice would be different from normal way of singing which means that it is much harder than usual. 

As from my reading, since they are not just using normal voice so they need some tips that maintain their confident and quality of their singing includes relaxation, breath control, volume control, proper diction,proper pitch, vibrato, and vocal abrobatics. The most important thing to remember is that everyone has the ability to learn how to sing opera. Singing operatically is not about being born with some magical singing power. It just requires hard work, dedication and a desire to learn. So, i personally admired their effort when performing opera. tI also provide some songs that really famous over the years as well as some incredible opera singer here.
