#weneedyou2020: Women Get Out The Vote – ‘We Need You’ 

Never in the history of the USA has it been more important to vote than in this year’s presidential elections. For too long people have believed that their vote doesn’t matter, but it’s simply not the case. And to help that cause, to encourage people to vote, a group of every day American women from all walks of life, have rallied together for the cause, united in the belief that even a small group can make a big difference. The single, ‘We Need You’, by Women Get Out The Vote, is a powerful protest folk-pop song, and with any luck should prove as important and memorable as the rallying cries in the 60s and 70s.

Bruce Sudano – ‘American Sunset’

We love Bruce Sudano. His music career has been massive, both on stage and behind the scenes. The former member of pop-rock bands Brooklyn Dreams, and Alive N Kickin’ has had such a versatile career, with a country-pop hit for Dolly Parton (‘Starting Over Again’, which he co-wrote with Donna Summer, his late wife), four songs for Donna on her album, ‘She Works Hard For The Money’, and ‘Tell Me I’m Not Dreamin’ (Too Good to Be True)’ with Michael Omartian, which saw Jermaine and Michael Jackson record as a duet for Jermaine’s self-titled album.

Sonarpilot – ‘CodeX’ And ‘Imperium’

Sonarpilot is the earth name for Michael Moppert, who holds that there’s a sort of code – a matrix even – that is the basis for all of physical reality. Formed of patterns and rhythms that can’t be detected with our existing devices, could these nonetheless form the very basis of our world, situated just beyond the extremes of our perception? While this might all sound a bit Arthur C Clarke, it’s an interesting theory, and if it exists, it’s very possible that music might be at the heart of it all, and in the hands of electronic multi-instrumentalist Sonarpilot, we could well find out what the truth out there actually is.
