For me, 2011 was such an exciting year for music. Amongst the platinum selling artists, Adele‘s ’21′ was definitely a highlight for me (Yes, Jamie XX‘s remix is killer, but the originals are already beautiful).

Amazing.
Brand spankin’ new Maylee Todd video is out for “Aerobics In Space,” directed by J. Lee Williams (1188 Films).
