James Vickery-Until Morning

“While listening to a track from Zak Abel, I searched for “British Soul Artists to watch 2019”, and once again, a truly soulful voice is discovered by Durham cool in James Vickery. Thanks to Complex for the review, as this voice transcends norms for reasons you will also discover on this “Until Morning” track.  James Vickery already has 13,655,370  views of Until Morning Colors Video, so we are Johnny come lately, but perhaps not too late for U.S. D.C. readers?  This track, Until Morning, deserves a second and third listen.  Allow this smooth operator to wash over you.  Sisters, understand.  This vocalist’s command is masterly. Vickery is the pure liquid flow in this performance.  For the newbies, watch the forecast in his arms and hands. Learn from a chill vibe master.

 

 

“James Vickery’s voice will grab you from the very first note. It is rich, powerful, and incredibly soulful, echoing the likes of Rag’n’Bone Man and Sam Smith (but with a lot more soul). Their debut EP Complexion was released at the end of 2017 and helped set the tone; he went on to top Spotify’s Viral 50 chart in the UK and received radio support out the gate. Vickery cleverly rode the momentum into his second project, last year’s Until Morning EP, with the title track garnering praise universally and streams in the millions. Produced by UK R&B artist Louis Mattrs, the song is a sultry slow jam where James shows his broad range, opening the tune while boasting an impeccable falsetto. Unsurprisingly, he’s received attention overseas and recently signed to the US label Th3rd Brain, where an album is currently in the works. “

This wireless Bluetooth model from Bose delivers very good sound quality and active noise reduction, combining elements of in-ear and earbud earphones. These earphones have an isolating design and an ambient sound monitoring feature; they will provide some muffling and electronic canceling of external noises and reduce the amount of sound that escapes from the earpieces. As such, they are best for those who want highly portable earphones that reduce the noise they hear from their surroundings or don’t want the sound from the earpieces to disturb others.

LYRICS:
Every little thing you do
Makes me feel so warm inside
In the kitchen slow, dancing
We’re alone tonight

Wonder if you want to commit darling
I could spend my life waking to those green eyes
Knew it was you from the first moment
You are
You are
You are

You are the reason I wake every morning
Cause it’s the only thing that gets me by
You are my world and you keep it revolving
And all my worries are then gone by night

I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you for life
No other feeling
Compares to what I have inside

Wonder if you wanna commit darling
I could spend my life waking to those green eyes
Knew it was you from the first moment
You are
You are
You are

You are the reason I wake every morning
Cause it’s the only thing that gets me by
You are my world and you keep it revolving
And all my worries are then gone by night

Consumer Reports Detailed Test Results Sound quality: The Edifier’s S1000MKII had Excellent overall sound quality. Bass has a good impact and goes deep, but is slightly prominent and boomy. The midrange is fairly even but is a touch grainy and hazy. Treble is extended and fairly detail but slightly prominent and a touch smeared. Does a good job of recovering room ambiance but is slightly congested. This two-speaker model comes as a stereo pair, and its sound stage width and focus depends on how it is placed. When well placed the sound field extends well above and to the sides of the speakers and has decent depth, and individual instruments and voices are identifiable and have a three-dimensional quality. Provides a decent volume level in a large-sized room. No significant difference between Bluetooth, optical, coax, and aux sound quality except bass is slightly less prominent with the Bluetooth input but can be matched to the others with a slight bass adjustment. There was no difference in sound quality between this model and the Edifier S1000DB it supersedes. Ease of use: We found the Edifier S1000MKII ease of use to be Very Good overall. Volume controls: The control is a labeled multi-function infinite-turn knob (volume & Input selector) which has a visual indicator on front of unit when max and min volume is reached. The volume control is not obvious due to its poor placement on the rear of the speaker. Switching sources: The source selector control is a labeled multi-function push button-knob that is clearly labeled. The control is not prominent (rear of unit), but uses ambiguous source selection indicators on the front of the unit. Wired setup: Is a 5 Din Pin cable provided for left/right interconnect of speakers, simply plugin, no prep needed. Bluetooth: The unit is always in pairing mode when not already paired when the Bluetooth input is selected, it lacks a pairing mode indicator and lacks an indicator when the pairing mode has occurred. Remote control: The volume controls are prominent +/- markings that lack index markings for volume levels, but have a visual indication when the max volume is reached on unit. The mute control is well marked, well placed, with clear indication when it is engaging, and mutes all inputs. The source selector has labeled buttons for all sources, but when selected the unit has ambiguous persistent source indicators on speaker display. The transport controls are obvious play/pause, skip only, no scan provision.
