I just discovered a Hawaiian steel guitarist that's new to me, thanks to the Steel Guitar Island station. His name is Greg Sardinha and I'll be listening to his albums soon. I love Hawaiian Steel Guitar.

Can't go wrong with instrumental Brazilian Jazz. Great music to read to, study to, do chores to, or just relax to. What's the best artist you've discovered on that channel so far?

I haven't been listening to it long enough yet. I'll let you know after I listen to it some more. I love instrumental Bossa Nova, I'm sure I'll find something I really like there.

I'm currently listening to the Swinging Harmonies channel on Accuradio. They are currently playing "Yellow Bird" by The Mills Brothers.

Yeah, that's incredible. At first, it sounded totally real to my ears. The couple of things that eventually made it sound off to me were when the choir came in, they sounded synthetic and kinda glitchy. And then when she holds a long note around 3:00 it sounds like a different (not as good) singer.

But since AI keeps getting better and more realistic, by this time next year will real singers and musicians be obsolete?

Ella Fitzgerald used to do, "Is it live, or is it Memorex?" commercials. I can see it possibly getting to the point when we will say, "Is it real, or is it AI"?

Wow! I just found this on YouTube. I listened to it, and I thought it was real. Then I went to read the channel's description and found out this is AI. I guess that's why the channel is called Hilariously Real Music. This sounded so good, it was surprising to find out it was an AI song. I wish there was still real music that sounds like this being released today.

Are the albums containing these songs listed here on BEA? If so, I think it would help if you included the link to their albums so people who hear these songs can rate the track and maybe even listen to & rate the whole album if they want.

Some are and some of the songs are singles. I can start doing that, but I doubt anyone is interested. They've given me no reason to think so. They don't give me any reason to think they are interested in any way at all. I get no feedback from them.

I have two favorite newly released tracks this week.

Come Out of the Graveyard - Dan Dean & Debi Selby - The theme of this song is similar to the theme of "Digging Up Graves" by Lee Park Worship & Shane Dunlap. I don't think this song is quite as good as "Digging Up Graves", but still a really enjoyable song IMO.

The second song is "There's a Time" by Juliet Dawn.

I just found out about another new release of interest to me that came out today. I haven't listened to it yet, but I'm looking forward to it.

Some weeks there aren't really any new tracks I'm particularly fond of but this week there were several new tracks I really enjoyed. I'll give you the Christian / Gospel ones first. I think this one is my favorite new track this week. I think it's beautiful.

I Know What Jesus Can Do - The Browns

Link

I'm also enjoying this one a lot too.

All Is Well - Exodus Southern Gospel

Link

This next one is the only song I've ever liked by TobyMac, but he's also singing it with the great CeCe Winans.

Oh My Soul (Psalm 103) - TobyMac & CeCe Winans

Link

I also enjoyed two new secular songs this week.

Time Machine - Sheléa

Link

The last one is an instrumental.

Dime Mujer (feat. San Miguel) - David Garfield

Impressive and informative.

Thank you. It's nice to get a reply.

Definitely has impressive vocal chops. And "Trouble" is catchy enough to be a mainstream pop hit. But "Oh Holy Night" is pretty clearly a Christmas song when it references "the night that Christ was born".

Thanks so much for commenting. Actually, I think "Trouble" sounds more like a blues song than a pop song. The backup singers are great on that one and David is a world-class talent. So gifted! He even blows the professional vocal coaches away. By the way, David also wrote the song "Trouble" as well. Thanks again for commenting. It's nice to have some interaction for a change.
