ReOriginals.


Is there truly an original? By what definition?

The fusion of an original with another, does it, in your definition, create another original or just duplicates with compromise?

Philosophies aside, we like Duffy's music.

Her voice isn't as big as Joss's or as animated as Alanis' or as acrobatic as Alicia Keys, Aguilera or M. Carey, but the soulful funk certainly stole my ear for a good whole hour.

I'm extremely attracted to the rawness of sounds, be it in the production, or the singer's vocal engineering, mixing etc. I love the rust in the drums, the brokenness in her vocal stylings, and the little surprises in the entire music production.
