Seasonal Change does affect the type of music we listen to
Party lovers packed at Club Cavarri |
It’s that season again, Spring, in which we are invited to spring bashes and picnics everywhere we go. All these events are made possible through the help of music. As we speak I have attended two events in which the artists performing kept me shouting their names and making memories. Music captures the attention and makes us relive the moments we miss by hearing a track when it’s playing. I really doubt that I will ever forget the fun I went through as I was present at these events during this season.
Going back to the events I have attended in the Vaal Beach party and the Boksburg Spring Fiesta, it was good to see our artists well mannered. Gone are the days you could find a musician perform under the influence of drugs and alcohol. These musicians are giving back to the listeners and audience by respecting their jobs and performances. We don’t expect a refund; instead we feel the performances we received came at a bargain. The musicians are obviously cheered by the Spring season.
You likely to find most artists release their albums during this season because everyone is just too excited to go out and party. House Djs among the list, take advantage of this season as they know they are likely to make more sales because of club attendance, packed bashes and beach parties. One international Dj who is most certainly popular this season, is Ralf Gum who is making waves in South Africa with his hit songs; Take me to your love and Linda featuring the South African vocalist Oluhle.
Besides house music generating lot of revenue, wedding songs and songs played at unveilings also have an impact on people’s pockets. Lots of weddings are also organized around spring. Groups like Mafikizolo and Malaika produce songs that become popular during Spring and Summer and that’s when they enjoy making music. Seasons do have an impact on the type of music you listen to.
