Owl City -- insomniac in productivity^_^

Most persons would say one can efficiently work during the day. But, one person in particular got his creativity and talent from being productive at night...nocturnal and insomniac...No wonder he used the pseudonym known as "Owl City" -- cause the artist is kinda like an owl, awake at night^_^

Owl City is comprised of actually one person, Adam Young, together with his instruments and love for music. He was able to make songs out of staying up late at night at a space in their house. He posted his creations in My Space website and it brought a stir to every music lover who hears his music. He already released two albums, "Maybe I'm Dreaming" and "Ocean Eyes" his sophomore album that is being talked about by fellow music artists in Twitter. The fact that he was mentioned a couple of times by David Archuleta, my soooooo infinite idol, my curiosity about this singer didn't stop by reading tweets.

Listening to his music, it's got the synthpop, new wave kind of sound. His songs are pleasing to the ear and are like comfort foods -- soothes and relaxes. From his songs that I heard lately, "Fireflies" and "Saltwater Room" are my faves. He likes putting themes like natural elements [like the song "Fireflies"], urban design [e.g "Designer Skyline"] and travel [e.g "Hello Seattle"]. I personally recommend that you listen to any of his songs and possibly, you would love one from the playlist.

P.S. By the way, you can follow Owl City -- Adam Young via Twitter: @owlcity.
