'The Glory' by DJ Sm!th: Modern Sounds, Eternal Truths


Time for a little bit of a change, and I know not everyone is going to appreciate this genre… but if you can appreciate CEDM, then you're going to love this track! DJ Sm!th's released the track, 'The Glory' in the CEDM genre. This song is an amazing blend of familiar hymn lyrics with a fresh EDM sound. I love how DJ Sm!th managed to breathe a new feel into this timeless message, making the message accessible to a wider audience. 

DJ Sm!th - The GloryThe essence of the song is pure praise. It begins with the lines, 'To God be the glory, great things He hath done, So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,' reminding us of God's love for us. By the time you reach the chorus, your ready to join in, 'Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear His voice, Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the people rejoice.' 

What makes the message of 'The Glory' so impactful is its focus on redemption, reminding the listener of God's promise of forgiveness. That promise is beautifully captured with the following lines, 'Oh, perfect redemption, the purchase of blood, To every believer the promise of God.' No matter who you are and what you have done, there's forgiveness and a fresh start when you turn to Jesus. 

So, take a few minutes and listen to 'The Glory.' If you're new to this genre, it will be an interesting experience, and if you listen to the lyrics, it will bring you closer to God.

(Related scripture: John 3:16; Ephesians 1:7; Revelation 5:12)

Secrets Artists Should Learn About The Spotify Algorithm

Spotify's competitive edge is the amount of data it holds on listeners and the way it uses that data to increase engagement. ... Using the same underlying data and technology can provide unique insights to record labels and artists about who's listening to what and help them reach more listeners. The Spotify algorithm sets itself apart from other digital music streaming services. The algorithm is an AI system known as BaRT (an abbreviation of Ba ndits for R ecommendations as T reatments). Basically, BaRT’s job is to keep listeners listening. It does this by playing and suggesting songs it knows the user is familiar with, while dropping in some fresh tracks it thinks they might like, but most importantly, haven’t heard before. This makes sure the listener is engaged, but things never get boring. BaRT decides what to suggest to listeners by combining two concepts – Explore and Exploit. This combination is the key to the platform’s recommendation system. Exploit uses the listene...

Fighting With My Demons' by Joe Nester is a powerful Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) song that confronts a universal and challenging issue — the battle with inner demons. Nestled within the soothing melody and catchy rhythm are impactful lyrics conveying despair, struggle, and ultimate redemption.

As we heed the voice of Nester, immersed in sincerity and conviction, the lyrics resonate, 'So fill me with your fire. Until I feel it burning bright and all the darkness turns to light.' It is a plaintive cry for God's sanctifying fire — His divine intervention to ov...

Josephine Grace - Higher Than the Heavens (CCM)

Josephine Grace has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Higher Than the Heavens. Josephine shared her story behind this song:  Some songs come quickly, some come slowly. This one was definitely the latter! It was way back in 2011 when I made a home demo of the first version of this song - it was moodier with completely different chords, melody and lyrics - and then it sat on the shelf (or more literally, on an external hard drive full of archived files) until the back end of last year. I’ve done some studying online with Hillsong College this past year and a half and at some point I’d explored what being wholehearted towards God means. Bits of the old song (it was called ‘I Will’ at that point), written quite directly from Psalm 108, started coming back to me beginning with Psalm 108:1 (NIV) “My heart, O God, is steadfast”.  I followed the melody in my mind to the chorus based on Psalm 108:4 (NIV) “For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your fa...
