Songs Of The Week vol. 2 aka "Juice Of The Week"
Hello fellow steemians it's been a rough week for me but i still managed to stock up some flavourful songs to share with you this week. I was going to share "Albums To Look Out This Monday" on Monday but my grandma got very ill and i was around her through her bad time.
As you know Juice Of The Week contains;
- Weekly Song Suggestions ( from what I have listened this week )
- Artist of the Week
- Album of the Week
- Crypto Currency Song of the Week
- One Song from My Favourite's
So let's see what we have got this week!
1. BEDUK - Gravity
Album: Flash Forward Year: 2018 Genre: House Label: Delises Records
Review: Off sync bass line and drums are against vocals on this one, while the lyrics say "Free fallin gravity" bass keeps jumping and synth layers is affected by gravity. Guitar riff on the middle of the song is filling the exact needed absence that synth layers has created. This song is a dancing invitation to those who likes to beat match with the rhytm.

2. CAMILA CABELLO - Havana (feat. Young Thug)
Album: Camila Year: 2017 Genre: Pop Label: Epic Records
Review: The classic latin song opening with gentle piano notes turns into a pop song with repetitions of vocals. Camila's performance on this song is a simple explanation of how her works affect the songs traffic. Classic Cuban trumpet solo gives a freshness to song.

3. COLDPLAY - Don't Panic
Album: Parachutes Year: 2000 Genre: Alternative Label: Parlophone
Review: Well this is the song i've chosen for the Earth Day. While Chris Martin sings "We live in a beautiful world" a repetitive notes on guitar riffs convinces us that we really live in a beautiful world. This is the first song that Coldplay used pedals on the piano as well. On the other hand smart usage of the pedals on guitars spreads the sound into ears and pulls it back and wakes us up.

4. CHIEMI ERI - Otemo Yan
Album: Otemo Yan Year: 2017 Genre: World Label: Mondo
Review: The bell at the start of the song is an alarm for getting ready for the orchestra. Chiemi Eri's playful vocals keep ordering hands to clap while the brass orchestra behind her offers a Japanese touch to Hollywood's classical soundtracks. While the flutes and claps gives breath to song, brass orchestra acts like a trampoline and adds a layer to our hearing.

5. TIESTO - I Like It Loud (feat: Marshall Masters & The Ultimate Me)
Album: I Like It Loud EP Year: 2018 Genre: EDM Label: Musical Freedom Records
Review: I really don't find it politically correct to say the word "rapist" however i'm going to say that this song is a replay button rapist. A festival hit that's going to be remembered for the years. Tempo of the song is always rising and the synths hitting the highest tone when it breaks off the bass.

6. EBO TAYLOR - Poverty No Good
Album: Yen Ara Year: 2018 Genre: World Label: Mr Bongo
Review: A smooth choir dissolves behind Ebo's dominant vocals. The drum rolls through the song is an ultimatom to poverty and the people who's making the world poor. Rhytm of the song keeps a body in a dancing state and the trumpet at start with a muter is laughing histerically till it gets punished by the anger of the drums and brass orchestra.

ONE SONG FROM MY FAVOURITES
STURGILL SIMPSON - Sugar Daddy
This song is an absolute next gen blues with dirty ambient guitars. A classic blues vocal performance from Sturgill. The song warms up till it turns in to a rock festival itself.

CRYPTO CURRENCY SONG OF THE WEEK
JAMES BLAKE - I Never Learnt To Share / POWER LEDGER
Power Ledger is a huge project. Like in this song the chart of power ledger stands still in accumulation zone for a while then it explodes and stays there. The song's rhytm falls down slowly after the explosion but let's hope power ledger to go through 20000 satoshi on the upcoming bull season.
ALBUM OF THE WEEK
BEDUK - FLASH FORWARD
The seventh studio album of the Turkish electronic music producer is recorded in London. Album is recognized and liked by the European music lovers in the first place then hit the 1st place on the Itunes chart on the first day of the release. 39 year old producer put his efforts on a Daft Punkesque way. Tangy and absorbing dance sound takes this album far beyond his previous works. My personal favourites on the album are Get Wrecked, We Dance and Gravity
Happy listening to all fellow steemians! Im going to spread the joy of listening as long as i can.
