Blog in Dm: Blogging Jewish Music from A to Zorn!

Came across this channel the other day. Someone, presumably a Chasid/Yeshiva community member, who wanted to be able to listen to secular pop instrumentals with plausible deniability, uploaded an album of "Munkatcher nigunim" to YouTube. Here's "Nigun L'harchakas Sheidim [a melody to keep away demons].

Can't believe it's already been ten years. A beautiful tribute to Moshe Yess Z"L... His son Tali Yess releases a cover of a song Moshe wrote to mark his tenth yahrtzeit.

From the mailbag... Orthoglocks

From the mailbag:

After a somewhat short to medium length hiatus from releasing new music, Orthoglocks is the latest (and first of 2021) Edd Bundy 'Themed' beat tape to be released.
Basically taking things back to ancestral roots, this instrumental album embodies and delves into the Jewish musical world whilst adding the usual Edd Bundy sounding Hip Hop twist on things.

The entire project is available on a "name your price" basis via Bandcamp, just trying to brighten up the day of a few people along the way in a time where importance lies on a few laughs, a few smiles and some really good Hip Hop.

From the mailbag...

Rabbi Moshe Friedman writes:

For the Chanukah period, I thought you’d be interested in covering this year’s most exciting new Chanukah music video. “Light One More” by Rav Mo is a hip-hop/pop breakout song, produced by a Grammy award-winning producer and mastered at the world famous Abbey Road Studios in London.

With a message of increasing light in the darkness, it addresses some of the difficulties of families separated during the Covid lockdown. For more information please see the attached press release and photograph.

The video can be viewed here: Rav Mo - Light One More feat. Yoni Shine - Hanukkah - YouTube

Ari Goldwag writes:

I just put out a new video, and I'd love it if you'd share it on your blog.

I really try to create songs with meaningful lyrics and music, as well as videos with good content - the idea behind the video is that the lyrics speak of our trust in Hashem (Bitachon) and our ecstatic song for all the good He does for us. I tried to express that in the imagery of the caterpillar (our hope for the future) and the butterflies - the beautiful expression of Hashem's kindness that comes when we wait for it.

Thanks so much,

Ari Goldwag
