  • Practice Piano Effectively to Be a Good Pianist - Although this article is written for pianists who want to learn how to practice effectively, it is also a good advisory for any musicians wanting to hone their skills in any musical instruments.

  • Your Child's Emotional, Social, And Intellectual Development - Recent research on the brain shows a dramatic spurt in learning between ages 4 and 10-when the brain is most biologically equipped to learn. Although the brain can learn new skills throughout life, it will never again be quite as active and receptive as it is during these years. During this time the brain eagerly seeks information from the senses as it decides which brain cell connections to keep and which ones to eliminate. Connections that are not reinforced by stimulation from the outside world are trimmed away until; by about age 12, the brain's basic architecture has been formed. Learning a foreign language and other skills such as playing a musical instrument become more difficult after age 12 because the brain has to work harder and more indirectly to commit these skills to memory by building new connections and breaking apart old ones.
  • Why the type of DJ you are matters - I remember what it felt like to want to be a DJ. I wanted so badly to be the one who was up there behind the decks. In charge, busy, approachable but also slightly intimidating (if I'm honest) – because that was the way successful DJs made me feel. I don't expect you're like me at all, but between ourselves, I was actually a little shy and awkward when I was in my teens. Even in my early twenties, I still found it much easier to deal with parties and other social gatherings if I had something to do. Well for me, that "something" was spinning the discs.

  • CD Covers - Brighten Your Corner of the World - Album art as reflected in the covers for major musical releases has become almost as much of a collector's item as the music release itself.

The CD covers have become a form of artistic expression that has a great deal of support in the art world as well as in the musical world. Because of the rapid changeover from long-playing stereo albums to ipod recordings that are carried around hooked to one's belt or pocket, CD covers are not so apparent as record album covers used to be.

  • How Daily Alpha Meditation Can Make You More Creative - We naturally enter into the alpha brainwave state during light, dreamy sleep.

(He had stopped smoking and drinking when a friend and I visited him in 1992.) He told me he realized he needed to do something when breathing became so difficult he couldn't walk the length of his house. Now he felt better and could vacuum floors and walk to the end of the driveway.
  • Can I Listen To Your Song, Again? - It is, and has always been, my belief that songwriters fail in the music industry not because they lack ability, but because deep down inside they're resigned to failure. I'm not going to dwell too much on why songwriters fail. I make the point only so that we can clearly identify the real enemy to success. When things never seem to go right a lot of people look round for a scapegoat - someone to blame. We've all met the type. It's never their own fault. In truth, such people may have enormous ability but, subconsciously they're painfully insecure, unable to cope with a "thanks – but no thanks." As soon as they receive five or six rejections, they're beaten psychologically. They begin to rationalize.
