I posted a really fun music video for Mario Monday this week. YouTuber AaronGrooves, a favorite of mine famous for his Mario on Marimba, got together with another musician, a guy named Bronkar Lee, to perform the heck out of a groovy version of the Super Mario Bros.' Underworld Theme.
I was curious: Who is this guy, Bronkar? Turns out he might be best known for a viral video of him beatboxing for his dancing baby. I looked around a little bit and found the he and Aaron have collaborated on something called Collision of Rhythm (which has a separate YouTube channel and associated social media). And then of course Bronkar has his own YouTube channel as well. I checked it out and learned that — in addition to the baby beatboxing — to my surprise, he plays a bunch of beautiful, really soothing meditation music! (There's a lot more there; you should see for yourself.)
That brings me to what I actually wanted to tell you about today: that there's a free app of Bronkar's music and guided meditations! It's called Brain Beats, and there are hours and hours of music, plus 16 guided meditations ranging from under 4 minutes up to 11 minutes. You can find the link to the app for Apple and Google at www.meditationsthatdontsuck.com. I'm enjoying his music so much, and I think you will, too!
