#AlternativeRock Lady Kayas - Escape

Magali Clouds - BTOML EP A review by Neil MacGowan of Monarch Music Media

I was delighted to receive a message on Facebook the other day from my good friend Magali Clouds (formerly known as Lady Kayas) asking if I would like to listen to and review her EP entitled BTOML.

Monarch Music & Media is now in the business of promoting musical, artistic and lyrical talent in addition to the retail side of things so requests such as the one from Magali are ideal for both parties, helping with publicity through cross-promotion.

OK so let's get straight into the music...

Track 1 : Escape
The opening track starts off with a moody piano melody before Magali's resonating vocals kick in, followed soon afterwards by the drums and guitar. A catchy chorus then draws the listener in and by that time you're totally in sync with the song! I particular like the way the song ends too.

Track 2 : Turned
This one is all about the bass guitar coming at you with a killer riff, then you are hit with the vocals and the drumbeat. Perhaps a little more reflective than the first track, the mourning of a lost love and that feeling of not being complete without a certain someone are sure to strike a chord with many.

Track 3 : Buck It Up
A very different style track that the previous two with very clever and catchy rapid-fire lyrics complemented by bass and lead guitar melodies which work very well together. Wonderful alternative rock track this one!

Track 4 : BTOML
My favourite track of the EP this one, it's epic! I particularly like the way the song builds. Magali's vocals really stand out as the backing music is a little more understated than in the previous songs. It's ultimately a positive song about overcoming difficult times in your life, turning the negatives into positives and going on a journey of self-discovery, staying defiant and ending up triumphing.

But don't take my word for it!

You can check out the EP at the link below where you can find lyrics for all the tracks which are also available as free downloads :)

Update 27th June 2017 : The artist formerly known as Lady Kayas has just rebranded and is now known as Magali Clouds, SoundCloud link and title post edited accordingly :)

Arxan Technologies State Of Application Security Infographic


An excellent article from Arxan Technologies about the state of piracy within digital media :-

State of Digital Media Piracy (Infographic)

It’s no secret that large amounts of music listeners are ditching the price tag of their favorite music and are instead downloading pirated versions of them for free. So, what’s this costing the digital media industry as a whole? And how are these pirated versions being made available in the first place?

Software security company, Arxan Technologies, just recently released their 2015 State of Application Security report, which answers these questions and more. The report found the root cause for the recent rise of piracy was contributed to poorly protected applications and a rapidly evolving ecosystem for pirated releases. Furthermore, they discovered that very few applications are deployed with protected binary code. This means a hacker can directly access unprotected binary code, analyze and reverse-engineer it back to source code. With the revealed source code, hackers or pirates can quite easily copy, modify and redistribute digital media releases.

Jeff Bedser, CEO of iThreat Cyber Group says “The best thing content owners can do is continually monitor the marketplace and equip themselves with intelligence tools and leverage data and application protection techniques to fight piracy head on.”

The infographic below highlights key findings from the Arxan’s 2015 State of Application Security report.

Monarch Music & Media - Update 28/01/2015


Monarch Music & Media

Update 28/01/2015


Website News

It's been a very busy start to the year here! On reviewing the website and content it was decided that things needed some reworking in order to provide more of a range of products along with better up to date news and reviews etc so that our blog readers hopefully become better entertained and informed.
The main part of this process took the best part of 10 days to complete but I thought it better to keep the site open during this time albeit with a limited amount of content.

Social Media News

The social media side continues to develop rapidly and yesterday the Twitter page twitter.com/MonarchMusicMed reached the 2000 follower point so thank you to everyone involved there. Facebook continues to be a great outlet for the business too and I'd like to thank everyone at the Facebook page facebook.com/monarchmusicmedia for following/giving it a like. I've also been looking into other social media sites such as Tumblr, Instagram and Pinterest etc to see how best these could help spread the word also.

Hope everyone's year has started well and as always a big thanks to everyone for your continued support, any feedback and ideas for going forward are much appreciated!

Monarch Music & Media - Update 02/01/2015


Monarch Music & Media

Update 02/01/2015


Happy New Year to everyone and I hope 2015 will be good for you!

It's been a predictably busy Christmas & New Year period but has also been very nice to find a little time to relax and enjoy the company of family and friends, although as usual far too much food and drink has been consumed and the first game of indoor football next week after a 3 week break should be rather interesting as a result of that!

Our Twitter page twitter.com/MonarchMusicMed has enjoyed some rapid growth over the last month and has gone from around 500 followers to breaking the 1500 mark today so a big thank you to everyone involved, the bigger the page gets the more coverage I'll be able to get for the musicians, artists and games developers that I'm promoting so it's nice to be making some clear progress with that and of course anyone wanting to get involved in cross-promotion is very welcome to join the page.

The YouTube page youtube.com/c/MonarchMusicMediaRudheath has not yet experienced the mass interest that the Twitter page is enjoying but does at least have its first subscribers with a few views of the videos so I'll continue to add content there but the key to growth I think is in the tagging of the content so that's the next avenue I intend to explore more.

At the Facebook page facebook.com/monarchmusicmedia the number of likes are increasing not just from internal traffic but also from visitors via Twitter so it's nice to see social media linking effectively. There's now an ever-growing list of our featured artists on SoundCloud and YouTube which appears as a pinned post at the top of the Facebook page, lots of great talent out there covering all sorts of musical genres (see below for link).

The SoundCloud page soundcloud.com/monarchmusicmedia is where our featured artists are hosted and there are now over 30 tracks plus a couple of my own productions and collaborations. Hip hop and rap fans in particular will enjoy these as for some reason we seem to have had an influx of that genre lately.

Once again I would like to thank everyone for their continued support and here's to another year of broadening the musical horizons!
