Video #1 – The Soul Project – Going Back in Time
(above) The streets of my hometown in Leamington, Ontario. This was extremely difficult to put together – not because I’m not a videographer by trade; not because I’m not a filmmaker either – (yes, that is my disclaimer in advance so that you’ll excuse all of my editing mistakes) – but it’s been most difficult [...]
Producer/Publisher kicks off Soul Project: It’s Personal.
Things will never be the same. For the last several years, I have been living under a basket. Afraid to talk to people in person. Afraid to show the world what I fear I have become. And it’s my doing. When you mess up your work/life balance, the imbalance will manifest itself somewhere. It has to. [...]

Born in Toronto, but having lived what’s amounted to many lives in places like Liverpool, Florida and L.A., Andrew Cole is an artist that has managed to take a piece of ‘everywhere’ and mould it into a unique sound reminiscent of times past, yet every part of the present and future.

Success has been a fruit that has been very slow to ripen for me… – Adam Cohen.
What makes me believe in doubt?
What makes me doubt myself – and even my dreams? Fear mostly. And what I’m afraid of can be narrowed down to 3 things. I sometimes fear success; Sometimes I fear letting people down. And most of the time I fear failure. Someone once told me that fear is nothing more than false evidence appearing [...]
Rest in Peace Etta James
She is renown for turning “At Last” into a timeless classic that will forever adorn the dance floors of North America – however big or small.
