Songs of the Syrian Refugees
182 votes
In his song, Mohamad is singing about how strange life is, how harsh the nights are: ‘Oh this life is so strange... our home became very far. Very far.’ But before he can finish, he is overcome by homesickness and with his head in his hands, he cries. He is crying for his beloved country and for the father he left behind.Abu and Mohamad are residents of Zaatari, a refugee camp located just a few kilometres east of Mafraq, Jordan, near the Syrian border. Originally established as a temporary settlement in July 2012 for Syrians fleeing the civil war, Zaatari is now home to an estimated 79,000 refugees and stretches over five square kilometres.The Jeeni Refugee Aid channel supports refugee aid and charities across the world.

Kéba - Chany
R&B artist Chany has brought an afro flavor, with a twist by including his African dialect, originally from Congo called Lingala, with a mixture of English included. He creates this love song called Kéba, which means to be careful in Congo dialect but referring to the 'lover' in his song to be careful with his heart.Chany was first established by the UK rap underground scene featuring on 'Hooks',by adding his vocals on records, which really took people by surprise by his smooth soulful vocals. One of Chany's biggest achievement was performing along side Boy George at the Dorchester Hotel for the Amy Winehouse Ball.
SAUL - "Brother"
This Iowa quartet of heavy rockers are kinda new to the scene, but have smashed into it and their presence has gained them a strong fan base. Great writing skills and production mean this track stood up to being stripped back to an acoustic version, which is impressive and well worth a listen.#saul #brother #iowa #quartet #heavyrockers #heavymetal #deathmetal #punk #rockmusic #siblings #acoustic #strippedback #production #jeeni #music #musicians #independent #singersongwriter #musicvideo #musicfest #community #talent #unsigned #creatives #fans #superfans
Kissing The Flint - Inside Story
These key words help fans find my video using the smart search. I should include things like the track title, artist name, background, location, music styles, influences, and production credits.
XVIV - Original Music For Brass by Hugh Davies
My original idea was for it to be played on 19 valved brass instruments but it ended up as the following: Piccolo trumpet, Eb Trumpet, 4 Bb trumpets, Flugelhorn, Tenor Horn, Baritone, 2 Euphoniums, 2 Tubas. Most of which were doubled. I think thats 13 parts in all, so close! The players: Sam Ewens: Piccolo, Eb & Bb trumpets, Flugelhorn, Baritone, Euphonium (samuel.ewens@googlemail.com) Hugh Davies: Piccolo, Eb & Bb trumpets, Flugelhorn, Tenor Horn, Baritone, Euphonium, Tuba (hugh@realbrass.co.uk) Carol Jarvis: Euphonium, Tuba (caroljarvis@mac.com)
