Get Your Beat On With This Song

by: Consuelo Bernardi

Found this track on the weekly video picks from the website 'Culture Addicts'.

Great beat, lots of synth and as Culture Addicts put it...very grimy.

A Must Have on Your iPod

by: Consuelo Bernardi

So when I came across this Tweet last night from Ian Drew (Senior Music Editor for Us Weekly)...

@Ian_UsMusic: Plan B about to go on to heat up this snowstorm

I was A. slightly seething with jealousy and B. totally craving some of that music from across the pond (I love my Brit music) and C. totally thrilled that Plan B was finally finding their way to North America.

Music That Makes You Feel Good

by: Consuelo Bernardi

Now I know it’s hard, I know it’s hard to remember sometimes, But you gotta keep your head up, And you can let your head down
~Andy Grammer

With the brilliant #BeKind movement that was launched yesterday on Twitter I decided that a song with positive lyrics that inspired and made you feel good...like you can take on anything...would be my contribution for the day.

The Face, The Voice, The Blog!

Consuelo Bernardi is a 30-something mummy of two. She can't play an instrument or sing a tune in key but is still obsessed with music. After a five year hiatus from the radio business she's back on the air doing weekends on Majic 100, Today's Soft Rock in Ottawa.

Still she always found the time to listen to music and make it a huge part of her life. She has more CDs than she cares to count and her monthly downloading bill for her iPod? Don’t even go there. Music truly is food for her soul. Plus secretly she’s always wanted to be a wannabe rock star...a girl can dream.

So take a minute from your day and crank up the volume. Motherhood isn't always pretty but at least your music will be hot.
