Echo-pella: Songs to Take the Plunge of Courage To

We all understand the immense fear of doing something that requires us to give our all and even a piece of our soul. We have all been through that particular situation. Whether it is something as common as walking into the hall to sit for the biggest exam of your life or looking down the stretch of the swimming pool as you climb up the diving board in a tournament, the beating of your heart drowns out all the sounds around you and all you are left with is your courage deep inside. And maybe even Shia LaBeouf screaming “Just do it!” in your head.

Beer & Skittles: Inside the musical comedic genius – Inside by Bo Burnham

One actor, one director, one cinematographer, one editor—rendering a one-man American special vaudeville Inside by Bo Burnham. Is it a documentary? Is it a show? What is it? Well folks, expect bass comedy, vivid drama, pandemic burn, poppy music, noteworthy theater and the hard truth of how the world works today. On May 30 2021, releasing this special on Netflix, American comedian Bo Burnham is back at it again as he snatches everyone’s attention head on. Praised left and right, Inside has become a relatable special that depicts the pandemic and online transition in its most authentic form. Open to interpretation, this ‘call it what you want’ special is an almost heart-warming yet hostile escape from reality that is centered on reality itself.

It’s that time of the year again where pumpkins become (almost) everyone’s food of choice and dressing to look like blood sucking ghouls or the undead is the thing of the season. Oddly enough, it’s almost as if people prefer impersonating some of the most execrable fictional personalities to ever grace the earth with heinous witches and despicable clowns being notable favourites — and who could blame them?

Echo-pella: Songs to Feel Nostalgic To

Imagine that you’re in a store- may it be picking out clothes or scanning through the chip aisle in a grocery store and suddenly, Katy Perry’s Roar crackles through the store speakers. More often than not, most people would be washed over with memories from their childhood or past with the mental imagine being more vivid the more enjoyable the song. For me I get brought back to sharing a computer with my sister laughing at Wassabi Productions rendition of the song with Rolanda’s beautiful face flashing across the screen. Good times.

Welcome to our brand new installation―Echo-pella, a special segment specially dedicated to songs. Listening to music is almost intrinsic and has become an essential characteristic to humans. In honour of our theme of the month, music is not only a form of artistic, creative and aesthetic expression, but it also has an immense revolutionary quality. Throughout history, this has been expressed in songs which represent a desire for change. From protesting and condemning unjust situations in our socio-political reality, to capturing revolutionary movements and raising hope for a better future. This expands music into a canvas encompassing the expression of our human experience and journey. Music is an entire language on its own which has had a significant cultural and political impact on real-life events all around the world; bringing positive change at historic moments. It also has the ability to unite and connect people from different walks of life and may even have the power to change the world.

Music: The Age-Old Vessel For Faith

Music evokes various emotions in people—whether it be sadness or happiness—and triggers emotional sensations that have never been felt before. For years, music has been used as a tool to provide faith for the general society. Through a religious lens or even just during troubled times, it has allowed us to look on the bright side as well as get closer to our faiths. However, the question is: why has it been the bearer of faith for all these years?
