Jaden Music has finally hit the shelves – officially launching our first single release “10 Seconds from Mars”!! As of today, this is now available for purchase and download from the iTunes Store. We are over the moon to finally be able to share our work with the world, and are absolutely ecstatic with the finished product. You can listen to a preview of the track here – 10 Seconds from Mars, and of course you can also buy it if you like it!
A big thanks again to my crew, and to Cass for her superb work with the vocals. This is really just the beginning for us, and we hope that you will continue to share our musical journey with us!
Much love,
Nic on behalf of Jaden Music
Water is all around me, streaming down my face and shoulders. Falling down, down, down… Lapping at my ankles, pouring down through cracks that have forced their way up and out of the ground below me. Darkness precedes all that is, or will one day be. I am in a moment where everything around sounds faint, far away… I am travelling through time – through space – and through my mind… one second at a time…
I open my eyes, blinking, as bright lights cut a path through the haze that has settled all around me – intruding upon my own, home-made reality and returning me to the present. Reaching for a towel, I dry myself off and step out of the shower. My journey to Mars has begun.
Often the best ideas come at the most unsuspecting moment, at a time when the mind is completely at ease and carefree… Uninhibited. When they come, you have two choices – 1. go with it, or 2. forget about it. I pride myself on being able to recognise a good opportunity when it stares me in the face – in this case, an opportunity by the name of Creativity. Quickly hauling ass into my studio (conveniently located in my home), I breathed life into my iMac, grabbed a pen and pad and got busy.
As the idea began to take shape, I brought Joel, and long-time friend/super talented singer Cassie Wallace into the picture to join me in the songwriting festivities. The first few hours were draining ones – the three of us brainstormed, jotted down lines, scribbled them out, debated, and then re-wrote – always striving for perfection. Once the lyrics were finished Cassie stepped up to the plate – or in this case the silver plated Mic. She literally flew through the vocals, bringing to the table the kind of melodies that I can only dream about. She bounced from harmonies to BVs to adlibs, before sinking into a chair with utterances of contentment – 2 long sessions later.
Now that the scene has been set, please close your eyes, sit back, and prepare to descend with us onto the Red Planet.
