Nhojj - Forget The Regret




“Forget the Regret” is a fun Sunshine Pop/Vintage Motown Soul inspired meditation on being kinder to yourself and forgiving yourself for your past mistakes. Its so easy to fall into a groove of ‘beating up on yourself’ with seemingly innocent phrases like… “I should have…” “I wish I had…” “if only I was…” “I am always…” these phrases and their comrades usually do you no service. I hope this little song helps you step out of that groove and begin to see yourself in new ways that involve more phrases like… “I’m glad I…” “I’m happy I…” “I’m thankful for…” “I do my best when I…” This kind of self talk opens your heart to receive the blessings you have been waiting for.

Tom Goss - Make Believe



Available on iTunes

No man is an island. Unless he's Tom Goss. In a new music video for Goss's song "Make Believe," the DC-based singer-songwriter's body is transformed into an island paradise on which an animated duo have an imagination-filled adventure amidst monsters, a dragon, a volcano and a bear-piloted airplane. The human time-lapse video features a (discreetly) naked Goss lying perfectly still on his back while nationally renowned painter Scott G. Brooks transforms his body into a tropical landscape lush with vines and flowers. All the while, a shipwrecked character and his local guide invent a series of playful games while escaping the dangers lurking around this most unusual Isle of Man. The video, Goss's fifth, was shot in one 80-minute take, with help from ten off-camera puppeteers. Each second of video time took 28 seconds to film; a clock over Goss's naughty bits tracks the real time. In addition to painting Goss, Brooks also drew 159 different versions of the main characters, a clumsy circle and a trickster triangle, which come to life via time-lapse. Another nationally known DC artist, Dave Peterson, created the dragon, sea monsters, and flying bear. The video was directed by Aram Vartian and Michael Key.
