Samantha James

I have always had eclectic music tastes. I listen to a lot of jazz, 70s, 80s, a little bit of 90s. I'm not a fan of country, and yet I love bluegrass. I think it has something to do with the purity of the music.

Lately I find that mostly I listen to "chill." If you're unfamiliar, chill is basically adult contemporary for the 21st century.

I was listening to a little internet radio this morning, which is how I usually listen these days—I can't deal with the commercials on regular radio. I had never heard of Samantha James before, but trust me, I'm paying attention now. Her voice is so unbelievable and pure. Listen to a little of it here:



The album, Rise, is an ambient-trance-chill mixture of incredible tracks. My favorite at the moment is Send It Out To The Universe, but I may change my mind, there are so many good tracks.
