Highlighting Musical Talent This month #1 | DanielMarshallAdventures

Each month I am looking to expand the different types of music i like and in doing so i have found some amazing talent which I thought would be a great idea to start a series on.

We are going to start with someone who i have not only listened to their music but seen in person 4 times now.
I have made videos of his performance and took photography and even wrote Blog posts about him.
That is of course CJ Hatt

He lives In Grantham, which just keeps amazing me more and more that i know someone local to me (:

The last time i saw CJ was only a few days a go on 2nd July 2017 at the royal Queen Pub In Grantham.
He has a nice big area toward the front of the Pub to perform and he aced every song he played, the more times i see him the better he seems to be, the more chances i get to chat with him and I put my hand up and admit i am becoming a bit of a huge fan lol.

What made me laugh is some people kept wanting him to play foo fighters, which he did, and covered loads of other songs inc what he thinks won him to the chance to play at festival too, which is busted's song year 3000,  Overall he is just a down to earth chap which you can have a laugh with, and even dance and sing to his music.

I could write so much more but do not want it to be a post just about him (: so if you want to see photography and videos of him please check the links at the end of the post.

This next person, I only got to know about via a friend which is Spoon Wizard Aka Graham.

he Started getting into the Dance style of music in the early 90s.
Some of his music i love is a Remake on Jesus on e's. which is like a mini set of Old school rave dance music which i love so much.
Another track which i love is a remix he did off Ki:Theory's Kitty Hawk album. called open wound.This was a dubstep remix and very high productive skills (:

I believe my friend said that he was living in Hull but i could be wrong,
Overall i love his music has a good range to listen to, and i am glad my friend recommend him.

The next Artist is someone i found from a song Spoon Wizard liked.which then started to listen to the rest of the songs From That CD and loved them.
The Artist is called hOffman and no thats now my miss spelling that is how its spelled.


I tired to find information about him but their website is down, and their Facebook about me just gives the website info.
All i can tell you is that he is a musician and he is Artist & Manager at Unstable Label.  
his type of music is soft but with upbeat drums and electronic music styles.

Its hard to explain but i have become hooked onto his music and want to try and create some similar styles of music to his.

Going back to live acts i have seen, is House Of Ghosts which i saw live only a few days a go on the 3rd June 2017 at Castle Gate Grantham.
At the moment Grantham has been getting a lot of talent in, we just need to have more venues playing live music (:



I manged to capture some photography and videos of their performance which again can be found at the end of this post.
I arrived a hour early, and even when they was warming up, i got excited to see what else they could play.
I noticed a sound guy with his computer on checking all the levels, and they had a killer PA System that you could feel the bass through your whole body which was amazing.

The band kind of reminds me of a band called Nightwish, The singer sounding even more like the lead singer from that band.
Each song was longer then most artists, which was around 5mins + but they did killer guitar solos and you would be amazed what the right atmosphere, Pad in the background can do to make the song longer but also more and more gripping.

I had to leave early due to not feeling great but i am sure they kept up the great vibe and would love to see them again.
Going to music events has really open my choice of music that i like, i get to meet the artists and even help promote them,  i couldn't ask for more (:

A little bit of extra information about them from their Facebook page .
The House of Ghosts are a five piece ethereal rock band from the Midlands. They formed in the summer of 2015 after singer/songwriter Gina Stone spent six years searching for musicians who could add that bit of magic to her songs and develop new material. The individual members have a wealth of experience and have played from small intimate venues to large capacity festivals. They have joined together with ease and have quickly become a very tight outfit with each member adding their own flavour to some excellent original material.

After a brief period working on some great songs the newly formed band spent some time producing their initial recording, an EP entitled Curious Attraction. Even before the official release of the EP, BBC East Midlands Introducing picked up on it and aired one of the tracks which got some great comments from people who heard it. Now armed with the EP, The House of Ghosts are making some noise locally and further afield and are keeping the Ghost Army fan base moving forward, picking up new recruits along the way. Their live performances are engaging audiences and are getting some awesome reactions and repeat bookings. Curious Attraction is also getting some outstanding comments such as “FANTASTIC, love it, heard so called professionals not sound that good. AWESOME!”
Onto the final artist which i have mentioned in a blog post before and he is one of the people who gives me inspiration for creating new ways to make a song.
That is of course Andrew Huang

I started watching His YouTube Videos a while back, and i have to say he puts so much freaking effort into now only making music content but showing behind the scenes, on sampling, mixing, mastering and a whole catalog more.
One of best series i watch is where he makes music from objects, cuts them down into samples he can use, even manages to put them into a keyboard so he can play the notes to create bass, synths , leads etc.
I also learn a lot about the different keys in music, and I just do not get how he has the time to do so much.
He made a video recently which you can find at the end, where you used a app called beat hawk to create 5 different tracks.
Each track he showed a small section of how it was made and then use one of the songs as backing while he went out and about showing you cool views before showing you more of how the track comes together.
As a Youtube  Content creator myself its extremely hard to find backing music, for travelling, or showcasing the stuff you did in the day.
With Andrew he cleverly puts his own created music in the background which makes the video production even better and more enjoyable.
He has worked with different companies and even networking with other Youtubers to create music.
Even though i do not record my sounds to be used in songs, i have learned a lot that i did not know, and adapted into my own work to make the production at a much higher level (:
so please check out his work, !!!!
The last thing i wanted just to slip in, is going back to Seeing CJ Hatt play.
I always arrive early to music events and sometimes that it the best thing as you get to meet and experience a different side to things.
Many times i have managed to get chatting to the guy that runs the Music scene In Grantham and the other week when CJ was playing at the royal Queen i was sat with people and was hearing this amazing powerful singing voice, just someone singing away to their friends i think.
This someone worked at the pub, and she really needs to get herself known as she was freaking amazing and her friends even said what are you doing working here lol.

So I hope you have find out so info about new artists you have never heard about, i shall be doing these blog posts every month so that i can not only expand my music listing but to help others to as well (:

The Title of this video From Andrew Huang has changed but is still the same content i was explaining about
