https://tinyurl.com/CLASSIC-ROCK-RONAN-FURLONG



Irish singer-songwriter Ronan Furlong displays an approach songwriting that is refreshingly unique and instantly recognisable. Weaving a beguiling tapestry of intricate guitar work, idiosyncratic lyrics and heartfelt vocals, Ronan's songs are strikingly original, exploring a broad range of philosophical themes in a fresh and contemporary fashion. 

Ronan: a renowned guitarist is regarded as one of the finest at his craft in Ireland and has received global airplay. Ronan’s last album ‘Diotima’s Ascent’ made the charts in Hotpress https://tinyurl.com/Hotpress-Diotima-s-Review in their top 20 albums of 2019 – coming in at Number 19.


Editors Notes:

Ronan has developed a style that is very much his own, shedding fresh light on ancient core themes of the human condition and re-exploring timeless narratives from a contemporary perspective. As a former student of famed Mexican guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriella, he has acquired a reputation as a guitarist of renown and uses his skills to enhance and compliment his songs using subtle lines and clever licks.



This highly original artist always produces unique, thoughtful music infused with melody and a style that is entirely his own. In a live setting he always provides an eclectic and energetic show and takes time to explain the underlying meaning of his unique songs to involve his audience in the performance. "Ronan’s last single ‘The Silver Torc’ was chosen by Irish hero MMA fighter Richard Kiely as his signature walkout music. Ronan played the song LIVE, in front of 9,000 people when Richard fought at the 3Arena, Dublin on 27th September 2019, and to a global TV audience.




Richard quotes: ’I am a huge fan of Ronan Furlong's music and I am honoured that he allowed me to use his song for my walkout music. I needed a song that would match the fierce energy and fervour that the Irish crowd bring. When I heard The Silver Torc, I instantly knew I had found that song. After the opening chords hit, the song blew the roof off the 3Arena!

Furlong is an assured & engaging solo performer with an expressive, flexible voice & dextrous guitar playing…helping pioneer a superior form of literate, contemporary song-based music for attentive listeners…His elegant lyrics range over a myriad of subjects… That said, Furlong also delivered accessible, snappy tunes…” Jackie Hayden – Renowned Irish Music Journalist and CBS Marketing Manager (masterminding marketing campaigns for Dylan, Leonard Cohen, ABBA, The Clash & Paul Simon).

Ronan Furlong's The Deal Lyrics

The Deal

Well you tell Me it’s a tricky situation 
And you want to be the first one to survive 
And you tell me life can twist and turn and break you
But you want to face the devil with a smile

Cause you’ve found a key In secret meditation 
To a place where time and space do not apply
But you’ve learned the cost of your manipulation is a door that’s closed except when hate arrives

So your sick and tired of your humiliation 
Only tears and years when dreams and life collide
And the path thus far is rank capitulation 
But you want to break the rules just for a while

Cause you’d sell your soul to change your situation and forever isn’t such a long long time
Cause a world that turns in constant tribulation is worth escaping should the chance arise

Open up the door and let your troubles fade away 
Come what may reward is worth the entrance that you pay 

So you live a life of constant resignation but you want to soar so highly in the sky
And it’s hard the cards are dealing you frustration 
and you want to change the rules just for a while 

Cause you’ve found a key In secret meditation 
To a place where time and space will Not apply

But you know that it’s a tricky situation if you want more than your dust to survive

------------------------------------------------------


We all face the decision of what to do with eternity. Yes life is tricky, difficult and hard. More often than not life throws us a curve ball or a bad hand. So the devil will manipulate us into making a deal.

when we realise, we hate the devil and he closes any door he has opened. But how to defeat the devil and gain the upper hand. There's the thing! Time and space don't apply in eternity.

But what about meditation ? Yes what about meditation ! Here's the thing about meditation ? Do NOT empty your mind and try to reach what some people call 'unity' or 'oneness'.

Every single one of us knows how to meditate! Do you know how to WORRY ?? Of course you do! WE ALL DO! THEN YOU KNOW HOW TO MEDITATE!!!

But here's the thing we need to turn our negative meditations around. Remember all those bad things that have been said about you by unthinking people. 'YOU WILL NEVER AMOUNT TO MUCH!', 'YOUR JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER!!' OR EVEN 'A LEOPARD CAN NEVER CHANGE ITS SPOTS!!'


These words replay like a bad record in our minds over and over. Just like in the depths of our soul there is an accuser who wants nothing more than to kill and destroy anything good in our lives.

It's time to put a different record on AND SILENCE THE ACCUSER!! 

LIFE AND DEATH IS IN THE POWER OF THE TONGUE !! 

So meditate on positive affirming words  

ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR THEM THAT BELIEVE!! 

YES CAPITULATION IS RANK! 

SO DON'T DO IT.  

We capitulate with the bad words spoken over us by unthinking or just downright bad people. 


I know its difficult to overcome. 

But here is the good news. 

IT ISN'T YOU WHO DEFEAT THE ENEMY OF YOUR SOUL.  IT IS A POWER GREATER THAN ALL OF US. ONE WHO HAS A NAME HIGHER THAN ANY OTHER NAME! HIS POWER IS WITHIN YOU!! FOR OUT OF YOUR BELLY THERE FLOWS A RIVER OF LIVING WATER! REACH INTO YOUR GUT AND DRAW THE SOLUTION TO ALL THINGS! IF YOU WANT HELP CHANGING THE BAD RECORD PLAYING IN YOUR MIND 

GO HERE!!

New distributor and next album

Hey I have awesome news after some legal shinanigins I have successfully transfered to another distributor.

You can now look forward to more releases from me in the future. I am currently writing my next album this will be guitar duet with a wind instrument taking the place of the lead instrument I have already written works for flute , oboe and bassoon. I have yet to decide which of the many instruments I have to choose from will feature as the final 2 works which will complete my 5 track EP.

The track names tell the story of my imaginary love life. 'I Love Clara' is the first track, 'Now I Love  Anabelle' is the next one and 'Nope it's Lucy I love' as the third. Clara Clayton (Mary Steenburg) is the name of the character in Back to the Future III who stole Dr Emmett Brown's (Christopher lloyd) heart. Lucy is taken from Lucille Ball the famous female comedy actress who I remember from the sitcom show 'I Love Lucy'. Annabelle is just a name that just dropped into my head for reasons which remain a mystery to me.

I have yet to choose the names of the final two female characters. But definately in the running is the name of the character name of girl in the film Species, Sil (Michelle Williams) and the gothic lab girl 'Abby' (Pauly Perette) in NCIS and course the character Ellen Ripley (Sigorney Weaver) in the  Alien's franchise. I can only choose two to complete my 'Imaginary Lovers EP album.


I went with Ellen Ripley and Abby

Album Feature Jose Zambrano Cassella







Although Jose known as KS on spotify is an unknown at the moment his music is cool.

When he sent his music in for review, I was surprised as no-one had ever asked for an album review before. However after listening to his music, it is the knid of music which growns on you. Not hard or difficult to listen to. I found his music pleasant to listen to. Though it is not in the easy listening genre, but pop/electronica. It is well balanced in that there are no surprises. The left/right balance is good with an equality of sound matched on both channels whilst not ignoring the centre

He certainly deserves more listeners than he has at present so I'm giving him a platform on which to announce his presence to the world.

I have pulled his track 'Specter' out as one I particularly enjoyed. 

The rest of the album can be found here QUARANTRONIC

NO MORE RELEASES THE END OF THE ROAD

It is with great regret that I have to inform you that my current distributor has decided to limit the number of intrumental tracks that any artist can release.

So with great regret I have to inform all of you that there will be no more releases from either Musical Artizan or David N Slater.

Good job I have plenty of other activies I can busy myself with this blog being one of them. If you wish to help me keep busy during this time of lockdown and into the forseeable future then do not hesitate to contact me regarding blog features and playlist placement.

Unless I can find a lyricist and singer to work with on collab tunes this is the end of the road as far my music output goes.

If you can offer some collab opportunities and a means to achieve that then by all means contact me.

There is one other thing that I can do and that is produce video of the spoken word from my daretobelieve blog. I have meant to do it for sometime but for various reasons have not got round to it.

There are two albums in the pipeline the Manic Mania and The Bad Lands. These two shall be my last releases.

artist feature BAzzJoke

April 2020 - BAzzJoke is a hear-impaired music producer with a focus on creating tracks influences by melodic house, deep and other genres of EDM. Today, he dropped a brand new studio effort titled “Into The Blue”, which highlights his ability to set the bar higher with some world-class productions, as well as his focus on great melodies and hooks. If you are a fan of artists as diverse as Lost Frequencies, Otto Knows, as well as Robin Schulz, you are definitely going to enjoy the sound and feel of “Into The Blue”. So don’t pass up on it! This song hits the mark, and it serves as a perfect calling card for BAzzJoke. It is all about tight low end. As the name of the artist himself might imply, you can expect some massive bass tones, but his production isn’t only about making the speakers shake. “Into The Blue” is a melodic track at its core, and there is plenty of balance when considering the relationship between the bass content of the track, and it’s more melodic nuances. The production is filled beautifully with many lush atmospheric pads, striking melodies and cool sonic elements that will make you want to get on that dance floor and jump into the crowd!

In conclusion, it is safe to say that this talented swiss producer knows a thing or two about what it takes to craft outstanding modern dance tracks, and move the people onto the dance floor with sounds that are not just powerful, but also emotionally easy to relate to! BAzzJoke did an absolutely remarkable job with this release, channeling a wide range of influences. Inspirations for this number include the energy of modern deep house and the softer edge of the genre’s most melodic drift, which went to on help the artist create a very distinctive, one-of-a-kind vibe.
