Jay Meydad's Life Mashup

I came across Emanuel and The Fear today on the HypeMachine and was blown away.

They are an11-piece orchestra-rock band from Brooklyn that uses a wide variety of instruments, like electronica, percussion, orchestra instruments (flute, violins and cellos, trumpets) and hard hitting guitars, to create mind blowing Orchestral pop/rock/ songs.

One of the highlights in IMHO is “Jimme’s Song”. It is available in two versions that sound great, but still I like the Demo version (vid below) more than the the Full band version

My friend, Issac Barel from MadBliss was in LA couple of days ago. He came to visit and it was a nice opportunity to catch up and hear about their recent success in Poland.

A U.S. tour is also something they are working on and hopefully I will get to see them during 2008 live in LA.

Here’s a great track which appears in “Heaven through old eyes”. Ladies and Gentlemen,  Vast Plains by Mad Bliss. Enjoy.
