Listening to Akshin Alizadeh on Radio Paradise

Reminds me a lot of Moby. Except maybe even better.

Well this is a bit of screw up. This track is by Akshin Alizadeh, a contemporary electronic music producer. The bio is of Agshin Alizadeh, a long-dead Soviet era classical composer. Both from Azerbaijan to be sure and with similar names, but still. Seems young Akshin doesn't have a bio anywhere online. But his (self-composed) Spotify profile reads as follows:

"A music hobbyist from Baku, Azerbaijan. Playing violin and piano since the age of 6. Combining funky grooves, soulful vibes and live instrumentals with punchy hip-hop beats and modern synths. Holding a master's law degree from LSE and making music occasionally just for fun and not for money."

Thanks for getting this posted ❤️

I think many Neil Young fans will be horrified, while Neil Young himself will have a good laugh

Pretty nice. I'm usually not a fan of smurfs doing backing vocals, but here it works.

I would have never thought I'd dig a song off an album called Street Bangerz Volume 8, but here we are.

I like this quite a bit, but the thing that really makes me grin is loading up the RP page for it and seeing the stodgy Azeri as the artist who made an album called "Street Bangerz Volume 8."

Edit: RP has changed the artist photo and biography. Probably for the best, but I did laugh every time I saw the old one.

I did NOT expect to hear Merry Clayton in a remix!
She’s about the most famous backup singer ever.

Now this is a cover reimagined, not that Gorrilaz song on heavy rotation getting all kinds of praise.

I wonder if Neil has heard this? Azerbaijan no less!!! I think it’s great. Thx @billg - this is what makes your station SO special.

Seemingly they are both from Baku, Azerbaijan and their names only differ in one single letter.
