Charles Hamilton




Thanks to my friend Omar, I heard about this artist Charles Hamilton---orgasmic.

Born in Cleveland, Ohio Hamilton was exposed to music since he was young through his mother who was an entertainment journalist. His music is mainly sample driven, but explains that its for the sake of telling a story and conveying emotion. "I believe that music is based on moments, and that there are some moments that people may have missed back in the day. They may have even missed it a year ago. When I sample, I'm giving the artist their respect, while simultaneously creating something new." He's influenced by a million different genres--he basically has music ADD. I personally give this guy props, his music's good and catchy and I can't wait to see what he has in store for us. You can also visit his blog at charleshamilton.blogspot.com. I'm not sure if his album is up on itunes but its called "The Pink Lavalamp".
