Owl City - This Is The Future \/\/FREE\\\\


Tantalizingly, Young told THR last month he writes in [dance music production software program] Logic and that in the future he may offer up a few tracks that veer more in a traditional dance music vein.

Suffering from insomnia while working loading Coca-Cola trucks, Adam Young began to compose music,[10][11][12] recording with a C-1 Behringer Microphone. Among the software that he began with was Reason from Propellerhead.[13][14] He began uploading songs recorded in his parents' basement to Myspace.[12][15] He started to receive favorable attention for his music and then helped cultivate this nascent fanbase by being an open and accessible web presence, responding to any messages he received and constantly posting blogs.[16] He has variously attributed the name Owl City to either his sister having a pet owl which once got loose in her church,[17] or the 1962 short film An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge.[18] His manager Steve Bursky later highlighted the significance of Young's engaging online manner in building his following saying: "People feel like they know him, like they've got a direct connection to him because of how he approaches his connection with them online."[16] Through a deal with the digital aggregator CD Baby, he then started making the songs available for sale through iTunes.[16] In 2007, Owl City released an EP titled Of June, followed by the 2008 release of the album Maybe I'm Dreaming. Of June reached No. 15 on the Billboard Electronic Albums chart, and Maybe I'm Dreaming peaked on the same chart at No. 13.[19]


"I think they saw Owl City as representing the future of our business. This idea of a kid in a tiny town in rural U.S. being able to make songs in his basement that sound like Top 40 radio could never have happened ten years ago. By hiring a young management company who understands the business circa 2011 over a seasoned industry vet, who might not understand the online spaces well, showed a lot of understanding of where this kid was going to end up having success."[16]


Ocean Eyes, Owl City's major label debut, was released on iTunes on July 14, 2009, with the physical release following on July 28, 2009. The album debuted at No. 27 on the Billboard 200. Owl City released three singles from this album: "Umbrella Beach", "Vanilla Twilight" and "Fireflies".[21] "Fireflies" topped the US and Canadian charts. Ocean Eyes reached the top ten on the US album charts, topped the US electronic charts, and also reached Amazon MP3's top 10 most downloaded album list. By April 2010, it was certified Platinum in the United States.[22] On January 24, 2010, Owl City reached the No. 1 spot in the UK Top 40 Singles chart with "Fireflies". The song "Tidal Wave" also received significant airplay on Christian music radio stations.[23] On January 2, 2011, it was revealed "Fireflies" was the 20th most downloaded song of all time in the UK.[24]


In 2010, Young revealed a new musical project known as Sky Sailing, which moved away from his usual electronica genre of music and introduced acoustic guitar and piano accompaniments into his work. The unrefined tracks were recorded in the summer of 2006 before he began making music as Owl City.[31] His first album under this new project is entitled An Airplane Carried Me to Bed, and was released July 13, 2010, via iTunes.[32]


The music video for "Alligator Sky" would be released on May 6. Young discussed the concept in a making-of video posted on Owl City's VEVO account, "The concept is basically about these two guys who are leaving Earth. Rather than it being this very dark post-apocalyptic vibe, it's very optimistic, and so it's like people are excited to leave earth."[46]


In mid-2012, Universal announced that subsidiary Universal Republic Records would be closed down, with the label's entire roster being transferred to Republic Records; as a result, all future Owl City material will be released on Republic Records.[71]


On December 18, 2015, Young announced that he would focus on a new project titled "Adam Young Scores". During each month of 2016, he composed and recorded a score based on a subject of his choice, which is something he had wanted to accomplish for a long time.[103][104] On February 1, 2016, the first score, which is based on the Apollo 11 mission, was released on Young's "Adam Young Scores" website. This was followed by 10 additional scores on the first day of each month of 2016. In reflection of this discussion, each song, 10 scores, were all based on historical events that impacted Adam Young in some type of matter over the time of his entire career as a musical artist and personal lifetime.


He revealed that during the eight months from October to June, three EPs, which he has called Reels, would be released, each with three songs from the upcoming album, including "Not All Heroes Wear Capes". He stated that the inspiration for this album is from "the amazing people he has met and the places that he has seen."[107] The album's second single, "All My Friends", was released on November 3.[108] On December 1, 2017, Owl City released the first, Reel 1.[109] On January 12, 2018, a single from the album, "Lucid Dream", was released.[110] The second Reels EP was released on February 2, 2018.[111] The third Reels EP was released on April 6, 2018.[112][113] Cinematic was released in its entirety on June 1, 2018. The album has 15 main songs, plus alternate versions of "All My Friends", "Montana", and "Firebird".


Owl City also has been compared to the Postal Service, often critically, for his combination of fuzzy synths, ironic lyrics, and use of female guest singers.[129] Pitchfork goes to say that "the surprise No. 1 single in the country, Owl City's 'Fireflies', jacks the Postal Service in such a bald-faced, obvious manner that getting into specifics feels redundant at best and tacky at worst."[130] In response to the suggestion that his work is derivative, Young suggested in a 2009 interview with The New York Times that Ocean Eyes is perhaps the "next chapter" after the Postal Service: "The Postal Service released a record in 2003, and that was it. There was really nothing to compare it to until someone else came along and wrote the next chapter. Maybe that's this record. Maybe that's this band."[131]

Just then, the cute girl becomes an old bearded guy in a turban, and we realize the girl was a figment of Young's imagination. Oops! He speeds from the scene, dodging dinosaurs on the road, before arriving in the year 2015 and coming face to face with his future self in a spacesuit -- just as the clip ends.


Owl City first came to fame during the release of their mainstream hit single Fireflies in 2009. The track appeared on the hugely successful album Ocean Eyes.Adam Young formed Owl City on his own in 2007, while suffering from insomnia when working on loading trucks in his hometown Owatonna MN. He then started to compose music, deciding to share his music with the world via myspace and receiving mass attention for those songs. What followed was a set of EP releases, first was Of June followed by the release of Maybe I'm Dreaming in 2009.It wasn't until the release of album Ocean Eyes in 2009 that Owl City seemed to take off to crazy heights of success. Ocean Eyes was released on iTunes in July 2009, with the physical release following two weeks later and debuting at number 27 on the Billboard 200. The album spawned three official singles, Umbrella Beach, Vanilla Twilight and the stunning Fireflies, the latter becoming the most downloaded track on iTunes.Relient K have strong links with Owl City. Vocalist of Relient K Matt Thiessen has toured and collaborated with Owl City on several tracks, including 'Fireflies', where Matt can be heard providing the backing vocals. Adam Young also produced Relient K's song 'Terminals'. Thiessen stated that it is very likely that he and Young will produce a side project called "Goodbye Dubai" in the future.While Young writes, composes, records, and produces all of Owl City's music, during live performances he is accompanied by a group of supporting musicians: Breanne Düren Keyboards & Vocals, Daniel Jorgensen on guitar and xylophone, Laura Musten on Violin, Hannah Schroeder playing the Cello, Matthew Decker plays the Drums.Moving onto the near future and Owl City are about to release their second album All Things Bright and Beautiful. Produced by Adam Young and mixed by Young along with Grammy Award-winning engineer and producer Jack Joseph Puig (Delirious, Beck, Mary J. Blige, Green Day), 'All Things Bright And Beautiful' features twelve new songs including lead single 'Alligator Sky', which hit radio stations in April, plus other tracks including 'Deer In The Headlights', 'Dreams Don't Turn To Dust' and 'Wear My Heart On My Sleeve'.Alongside the release of the new album, Owl City will kick off a major US Tour in Nashville on 13th June at the historic Ryman Auditorium, continuing through until 30th July in Minneapolis.


I will admit that Christians still have questions to answer, but this makes sense. It makes sense that there is a Creator who designed everything about our world with the finest of detail. It makes sense that the good things about us are a reflection of our Creator, if it is true that He knows us and wants us to know Him. And it makes sense that our poor life decisions have separated us from God, if it is true that He is perfect and the ultimate standard of good and right. Stay tuned and pretty please come back next week for part 2 of The Gospel According to Owl City! 041b061a72
