Car Sales Made Simple & Profitable in the 2020s

Five years ago, after Dave Koz and Friends released Summer Horns—the GRAMMY-nominated album that paid tribute to classic songs featuring killer horn sections—all that the musicians could think about was how much fun they’d just had. They toured behind the album during the summer of 2013, then vowed to spend the following summer doing it all over again.

A truly outstanding book that works on so many levels, a personal journey, a review of contemporary Islamic life in Britain, a historical reference, an assessment of Islamic politics and many more. Husain's personal journey into extreme Islamic politics is quite frightening simply because it seemed so rapid and easy and also that extremist politics does seem to dominate the thinking of the young Muslims that he mixes with. If the type of thinking that he describes is half as dominant as this book seems to suggest then as a country we have a lot to worry about and more horrors like the attacks on London in 2005 are inevitable.

For Hinako Omori, synthesisers are a portal to the subconscious. Far from being sterile or austere, “synths really do respond to how you’re feeling,” says the London-based artist, producer and composer. “There have been times where I’ve felt stressed and my synth would go out of tune. I took it to a repair place once, thinking that something was wrong with it, but it was fine; I think it was to do with my energy levels. So when I sit down and write something, whatever comes out is relevant to how I feel in that moment because the synthesiser is responding to it. The music really becomes a map of my emotions.”

The human touch makes a noticeable difference. Listeners invariably respond to that tactile bond between the musician and the music.
