Review: Break Free, Ariana Grande's Sophomore Problem!



Ariana Grande is a problem, she really is a grand problem for the music addict and beauty enthusiast. She's got the sexy, and the beauty and absolutely the talent. Her voice is undoubtedly grand. I have been knowing her ever since she released her debut album Yours Trully, but at that time i didn't really have interest to her. So i was just letting her passed by. Then everything is much greater in her recent projcet. Started with Problem, i didn't listen to it since the first it started to become hits everywhere, lately when i saw the music video then i realize that it is really a cool song.

Now, in her second song from her upcoming 'My Everything' record, I think i'm falling in love more to her. The song entitled 'Break Free' is setting to become something so magical that breaking everything free. I love it! I had actually known this duet project between her and the dangerous Zedd and i anticipate it so much that it would be a good song. And when it finally out yesterday, then I listen to it. Guess what? it is really a cool song that I'm wishing for.

The song which is produced by Zedd and Max Martin has definitely dance elements, and Ariana's voice is nothing but beautiful. This song has also pop taste as the edm on it doesn't dominate the music. So, it is really lightly easy to listen, the EDM input is good and just right. Crunchy and fresh!

Cinema In June 2014



Halo readers, halo July. For the first month post I'd like to bring out the cinema tickets that I've got in the previous month in June. And last month, total i went to Cinema for three times watching three different films with the same no one a.k.a alone. The films were X-Men DoFP (Again), Oculus and Transformer Age of Extinction.

The story behind rewatching X-Men DoFP was actually because I was too freaked out about the film, it was great, best X-Men film ever! So, i decided to watch it again solo, besides when the first i watched it i wasn't a little bit enjoying it because i went to studio quite late, the film had already been begun and i got the front seat which made me realize that watching film in cinema and get a seat in the few front rows is sucks, the film is not looking good and the neck is not good too. So, never gonna do that again.

The second film i watched was Oculus, i was actually anticipating this film since the first i knew so when it finally hit local theatre I decide to watch it. But the film unfortunately left me something not so good, i mean i didn't think it was the film, horror kind of film i would love to see in Cinema. Its good, it has good thrilling actions, but the horrors i want more than just a back and forth plots.

The last, the most surprisingly film I watched in Cinema is Transformer 4, Age of Extinction. Transformer things has never been film i would to see in Cinema or even in my laptop because i'm not really a fan of it. But when it comes to this film, I was impressed to see the trailer, so i was attracted to watch it. But anw, knowing that i didn't follow the story of the first three prequels so i decide to watch this as an entertainment only, enjoying the action and remarkable visual effects. No serious feelings.

EPs In Late June

Coldplay is my fave, I love them!, Owl City is always one of my greatest joyful i find in music and Wrable is the one i indroduce earlier this month that i really looking forward to his musics. So, what if all of those three produce their latest music at around the same time in the edge of June? man! i barely can even breathe, best June ever!. Because it comes true, Coldplay released A Sky Full of Stars EP, Owl City with his new EP Ultraviolet and Wrabel the one that i'm so excited the most just gave me his debut EP Sideways. Here are the details:

1. Coldplay - A Sky Full of Stars


This song has previously released by the band as the second single from their recent album Ghost Stories, and as it came out, i was thrilled and i love the song. I also wrote its review Here. A Sky Full of Stars EP features three exclusive songs, alongside the previously-unavailable radio edit of A Sky Full of Stars. The EP released on June 29, 2014 by Parlophone. One new colplayish song that i like is Ghost Story as well as the O reprise, the outro of the original version.

2. Owl City - Ultraviolet


The EP features the song Beautiful Times featuring Lindsey Stirling and the other three songs. I have previously listened to Beautiful Times and i think the song just reminds me of Adam's past work like Ocean Eyes and Maybe I'm Dreaming. Every song in Ultraviolet never leave Owl City taste, they're just what Owl City sounds like and i like it. The mini album released on June 27 by Republic Records.

3. Wrabel - Sideways


The first i knew him was from Afrojack's Ten Feet Tall which is originally his song, I like him and his musical type so I wrote him an Introduction in my post Here. At that time i really can't wait for his upcoming projects and last night i just know that He has just released a debut LP Sideways, damn i missed it for few days. It was released in June 24 (which is my birthday). It features 4 songs including Ten Feet Tall his original version. The three other songs are a bit different from Ten Feet Tall as they get so much rnb taste. Sideways and Into The Wild are good ones.

First 3D First Transformers



I'm not a huge fan of Transformers, neither the film nor the series. I watched one of its 3 prequels but i forget which one, the film which sets in egypt, yea! the transformers film i ever watched. And you know what? i didn't enjoy that. I don't know, transformers is sort of film which has the elements that i should love it. I mean its a sci-fi kind of films, full action, remarkable visual effect. Indeed it is, but it just doesn't work to me.

Then, when the forth film is coming to cinema and surprisingly arrives on time in town's 21 due to is early release in Indonesia and Philippines, I'm like dragged into the euphoria and the fact that Transformers is a regular blockbuster film which attracts so many viewers to go see it, i think i'm one of them now for this film. To get the ticket itself, i'm surprised that i willing to buy the late schedule 21.30 showing. I first planned to watch at the nightfall, but since its so sold out i decided to buy the last schedule to pay off my curiosity and shove with the others.

The curiosity about this film was first come when i watch the preclip trailer when I watched Edge of Tomorrow, at that time i was quite impressed to see the visual effects. And, seeing Stanley Tucci reminded me of him in DWP and Caesar Flickerman in Hunger Games. So, when the film arrived on time i decide to watch it and to be honest, the intention is just for having fun, seeing action movies with good visual effect without really questioning the plot and character that i'm nearly blind about it at all.

Flash Review

For some action seeker, suspense sequences, incredible 3d visual effects and the 'hottess' of Tessa, transformer will seriously satisfy the movie goers. From the very first to the end it contains such a high tense action with wow and thrilling visual. Every robot transformation is cool, the dinobots are so giants, the destruction of the city is scary but cool and the humor, yea the humor is making some 'idiots' viewer laugh for like so noise.

But, this film is actually just worth watching for entertainment only, i mean i'm not trying to judge this by saying this is actually a bad film, no! i don't say that. But according to the reviews that i read from wiki of which they give the film negative responses, i think i'm on their side that there're lots of cinematic problem in the Transformers Age of Extinction, like the acting, the story deepening and the character building. But as i say, i only intended to watch for entertainment only i think i could get that. Transformer 4 is entertaining.

And the fact that i watch this film in 3D viewing makes it quite interesting, because embarrassingly that was my first 3D film i watch at cinema 21, that's not because i don't want to but 3D is rarely coming here, that's sad but after i finally tried it, i think its not so much different with the traditional 2D pictures unless we wear a 3D glasses. There are many things that didn't come to my expectation. The 3D taste is only a few, the screen is too small, the audio and the 3D glasses is too thick makes it quite heavy. But, anyway i can finally gave it a taste and any lacks of it i can still understand it.

Review: In The Lonely Hour From Sam 'Soulful' Smith



Have you guys ever heard name of him, Sam Smith? if not, you desperately need some updates in your list to listen. Sam Smith, a British, a singer with his soulful voice. Me, honestly i first knew his musics back in few days after knowing his song 'Stay With Me' was climbing into the top ten list of US Billboard Hot 100. The ballad that takes me into more curiosity of what more he has in his musical literacy. The singer is closely to be named as the male version of Adele by several online medias, as his deep meaningful songs which is generally taken from the real life experience and his pure voice just make it feel so good.

"In The Lonely Hour" is Sam Smith's debut LP, an album which is consistently listed with songs about unrequited love. Time.com wrote on its review "In fact, it isn’t about loneliness at all, it’s about the painful, unavoidable desire for suffocating closeness fostered by unrequited love.". I can say that this is the album that i enjoy mostly of the song on my playlist. Every of its track has the same taste of his signature voice, they maintain listener to really relate a feeling when they are dealing with one-sided love all of in most of the songs. And the thing about male version of Adele, i think he's really an Adele-icous singer. The composition, lyrical, contemporary adults songs are all identical to her and directly reminding me of 21.

I really recommend this LP to all the readers who have an ultimate taste in kind of soul music, deep lyric and lovesick to deal with. The best lineup for me is started from the sublime 'Stay With Me' to 'Restart', i really enjoy that array and i can do for multiple loops on that songs. And one song which sounds so juggernaut in this album is track number 8, Life Support. My most fave one!
