Trying to find an artist that hasn’t yet been blogged about is about as hard as trying to find a decent picture of Reina Del Cid. So yesterday I was blundering my way through various and sundry youtube videos, I can’t really recall why, and I found this track by a girl who records her own music. She goes by the name Reina Del Cid and as far as I can tell this is the first time she’s ever made her way onto a music blog. Other than her youtube page and her myspace profile {which is seriously lacking a decent picture} there really isn’t much else I could find. These three tracks, in my opinion, showcase a rough talent that would benefit greatly from a little production polish {not to mention some higher quality recording equipment}.
mp3 : Reina Del Cid - Come Back Over
mp3 : Reina Del Cid - New Girlfriend
mp3 : Reina Del Cid - Wonder
What really struck me in these songs are the memorable lyrics in the song Come Back Over. Honestly, after listening to these three tracks you can rest assured that this is what clever lyrics, written by a truly independent musician, are supposed to sound like. It always amazes me what talent and creativity lies hidden amongst the rubble strewn about myspace and youtube alike.
I do apologize for the audio quality of these tracks. This is as good as it gets when songs are ripped from a myspace page. I hope you can look beyond the production quality and realize that Reina Del Cid is a talented young musician who deserves a listen. One thing is certain, there is great potential here.
