Classic Riddim 2010

Hello Music Friends,

If you like Maxi Priest, then you might like listening to this. I heard the talented reggae artist singing on this riddim and automatically fell in love with the groove. Although I had planned to learn the song, I never really set aside the time to do so; however, a live poolside gig at The Mariott Hotel in Charlotte, North Carolina forced me to go from "0 to 60 in 11seconds" so to speak. I didn't realize that my music player was set to "Shuffle" therefore when my ipod chose the Classic Riddim, I had to improvise my way through it.
I hope that I'm not the only one who likes this rendition.

Best,
Minsky

Steel Drum Wedding Music - Minsky Delmonte

Hello Music Friends,

The video above explores the idea of adding the romantic sound of steel drums to your wedding day. I'm happy to have filmed and edited it myself as I've been practicing those skills. I also included an original song " Amber Mint" in the latter half of the video. Have a look and consider contacting me for you steel drum wedding needs.

Lights, camera, steel drum!

Hello Music Friends,

Here is a recently created performance video. It is R. Kelly's " Happy People". I played it at a really fun wedding in South Carolina.

I mentioned that I've been brushing up on video editing. I've learned to split the audio track and sync it with the video. Have a look.
Special thanks to Lisa L. for the camera work.

Best,
Minsky
