Daniel Mayer - Let Your Light Shine (CCM)



Daniel Mayer - Let Your Light Shine
Daniel Mayer has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called 'Let Your Light Shine'.

This song is an expression of Daniel's unapologetically Christian faith, breaking into the contemporary Christian music world where he is not afraid to speak what is on his heart and give all of his praise and creativity to God.

'Let Your Light Shine' has a catchy melody and lyrics that remind me of a passage from Matthew 5: 14-16: 'Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.'
Nobody lights a candle and places it underneath a table because the light will be obscured if you do so. To allow the candlelight to shine fully, light the candle, place it on a candlestick, and place it on a table. That candle is lit by God, and it is for us to shine so that all may see. This is the message I also take away from this song.

Daniel, who was born in the Rocky Mountains and raised in the City of Angels, has been playing guitar and singing since the age of seven and has trained and worked as an engineer/producer with leading professionals in New York, Washington D.C., and Florida. Beginning with a snippet of a melody in his head, he layers hip-hop-influenced drum machines/synths over his signature bluesy and psychedelic guitar licks, as well as his distinct alternative rock/pop vocal melodies. Daniel presents himself as a praising poet, giving all the glory to the Lord.

Riley Clemmons - Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix (CCM)

Riley Clemmons has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Stuck Inside My Head - Single Mix. The song 'Inside My Head' was born out of a season of pain and healing. As a result, the song has a way of speaking about life's difficulties that is accessible and relatable to everyone.  "As I was writing and dreaming up this record, "says Riley, "there was never a plan to create anything but honest music, born from hurting, growing, and healing. I collected songs for this body of work much like I collected every experience I found myself in the middle of over the past couple of years... the highs & lows, the conversations with God, the questions about my identity, the heartbreak, and the healing." Although the music addresses life's hurts, it does much more than that. The trials of life, according to Clemmons, are ordained by God so we can draw close to him. "The thread that began to connect them all quickly became the idea tha...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...
