AmesEla Main Page

"Another (at least to me) new west coast label offering a strong vocal production by DJ MFR aka Marco Celone. A bumpy groove with wicked keys and vocalist AmesEla who is blessing us with her talent. She's giving the track that extra soulful edge."

"A sultry sophisticated vocal from AmesEla over a groovy and smooth instrumental. Sexy keys and a solid garage feel to the track will make it a choice for the vocal DJs. My first experience with Cosmic Flux and hopefully not my last."

Other performances include The Knitting Factory LA, VIC @ The Mayan 2002, on Burning Man Radio 1999, Burning Man 2000 & 2002, The Learning Party, with DJ Keone at Tryst, Marakkesh SF, and other alternative and underground events. These performances include her infamous DJ Diva sets with well known DJs, as well as songs from AmesEla's upcoming release. AmesEla appeared as a performance artist with the Chakra Explorers in "SOL" last fall which featured "IN THE FLOW", a song from AmesEla's latest project with music by L. Henry Sarmiento, II.



NEWS: SO BEAUTIFUL DANCE MIX made #3 on Radio Centro Suono in Rome! Cosmic Flux Musiq SF released house mixes by both Vincent Kwow and DJ MFR (Marco Celone) of AmesEla's "SO BEAUTIFUL" with music by DJ MFR of Transport Records! "DJ MFR is turning heads all of a sudden. I like his style. For fans of Miguel Migs or Naked Music, this release is sure to find plenty of play-time in your crate. The a-side is a full vocal mix of "So Beautiful" with AmesEla providing silky smooth vocals over deep house beats, smooth synths, and string arrangements. The first cut on the b-side is the Dub mix, which is my favorite by far. AmesEla's vocal snippets adorn the track in all the right places giving this track a soulful feel without getting all queeny. The inside cut is the Original mix which layers AmesEla's vocals over snappy snares, old-school house organs, and a live bassline." - CoyWest, 12" Reviews "Another (at least to me) new west coast label offering a strong vocal production by DJ MFR aka Marco Celone.

					Referred to affectionately as "eclectic", AmesEla is the reflection of musical noodling in combination and influence of collaborator L. Henry Sarmiento, II and other talented musicians. AmesEla brings an unlikely marriage between blues, electronic and urban pop -- all derived from pure unadulterated expression and song writing. Funky jazz, deep lyrics and progressive beats, AmesEla's range of vocals compliments this salad of sound with twists of the gritty low end all the way to alto soprano. <Order* "BLUE SKY". Play Songs and view the lyrics of the "BLUE SKY" Project.> MP3 Ratings: Indie featured on MP3! "Mouth Shut" made Top 40* and has been noted as a "Hot Mover". AAA featured WABI's "Wheel". BLUE SKY made Top Ten and has been noted as a "Hot Mover" in Alternative. "Blues Lives! Great blues number. Really nicely orchestrated. I think the singer is holding back a beautiful voice just a bit. The musicians are quite good. I could hear the influence of blues men/women, especially Bonnie Rait in the style. I think an instrumental solo at one point may offer something to this song. The flow was really good. Great Blues number.
