Esmée Denters
Esmée Denters (born 28 September 1988 in Westervoort, The Netherlands) is a singer-songwriter fluent in both English and Dutch. She was a regular cover-artist on video-sharing website YouTube where she covered songs from some of the biggest charting artists like Justin Timberlake and Natasha Bedingfield.
In 2008 she would go on to start her professional career after attracting the attention of Dutch media scouts and American pop singer Justin Timberlake. Timberlake would go on to sign Denters as the first artist to his label Tennman Records in association with Interscope Records. In May 2009 she released her debut studio album, Outta Here which was executively produced by Timberlake and featured Denters co-writing all songs. The album reached number five in her home country of the Netherlands and only charted in Belgium, where it reached 55 on the Walliona Albums Chart[2] and the UK where it reached 48.
Denters added the official music video to the debut single "Outta Here" from her debut of the same name, to her official YouTube page on 22 May 2009, and her second single "Admit It" on 3 September 2009. In autumn 2009 she was on tour with Honor Society. The album has so far spawned two singles including the title song which reached top 30 and the less successful "Admit It" which reached 28 and 56 in the Netherlands and UK respectively.

Eric Clapton
Eric Patrick Clapton, CBE (born 30 March 1945) is an English blues-rock guitarist, singer, songwriter, and composer. Clapton has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Yardbirds, of Cream, and as a solo performer, being the only person ever to be inducted three times. Often viewed by critics and fans alike as one of the most important and influential guitarists of all time, Clapton was ranked fourth in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" and #53 on their list of the Immortals: 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.
Although Clapton has varied his musical style throughout his career, it has always remained grounded in the blues. Yet, in spite of this focus, he is credited as an innovator in a wide variety of genres. These include blues-rock (with John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers and The Yardbirds) and psychedelic rock (with Cream). Clapton's chart success was not limited to the blues, with chart-toppers in Delta Blues (Me and Mr. Johnson), pop ("Change the World") and reggae (Bob Marley's "I Shot the Sheriff") (He is often credited for bringing reggae and Bob Marley to the mainstream.) Two of his most successful recordings were the hit love song "Layla", which he played with the band Derek and the Dominos, and Robert Johnson's "Crossroads", which has been his staple song since his days with Cream.
Enrique Iglesias
Enrique Iglesias (born May 8, 1975) is a Spanish singer. He started his musical career with the Mexican indie label Fonovisa, which helped turn him into one of the most popular singers in Latin America and the United States, selling more Spanish language albums than any other singers, during that period of time.
In the late 1990s, he signed a deal with Universal Music for an unprecedented $48,000,000, with Universal Music Latin Entertainment records, releasing his Spanish and English albums to the English speaking entertainment industry. Iglesias has sold over 60 million albums worldwide and has won a Grammy and Latin Grammy and has had several Billboard Hot 100 number one hits and holds the record for producing 20 number one Spanish language singles on the Billboard's Hot Latin Tracks.
Ennio Morricone & Hugo Montenegro
This is a discography of film score composer and conductor Ennio Morricone. He composed and arranged scores for more than 500 film and television productions. Morricone is considered as one of the most influential and best-selling film composers since the late 1950s. Ennio Morricone has sold well over 50 million records worldwide, including 6,5 million albums and singles in France, over three million in the United States and more than two million albums in Korea. His score for Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West is one of the top 5 best-selling original instrumental scores in the world today, with 5 to 10 million copies sold. His score for The Mission was also at one point the world's best selling score. Morricone's music for The Good, The Bad & The Ugly (1966) and Le Professionnel (1981) sold each over 3 million copies worldwide. Hugo Mario Montenegro was born in New York City in 1925. He served in the U.S. Navy for two years, mostly as an arranger for the Newport Naval Base band in Newport, Rhode Island. After the war he attended Manhattan College while studying composition and leading his own band for school dances.
Hugo Montenegro-In the middle 1950s, he was directing, conducting, and arranging the orchestra for Eliot Glen and Irving Spice on their Dragon and Caprice labels. It was he who was directing the Glen-Spice Orchestra on Dion DiMucci's first release when Dion was backed by Dragon recording artists, the Timberlanes. Released on Mohawk #105 in 1957, the songs were "Out In Colorado" and "The Chosen Few", which were soon issued on the Jubliee label for better distribution. He was later hired by Time Records as a musical director producing a series of albums for the label, and moved to Los Angeles in the early 1960s where he began working for RCA records, producing a series of albums and soundtracks for motion pictures and television themes, such as two volumes of Music From The Man From U.N.C.L.E., an album of cover versions of spy music themes Come Spy With Me and an album of cover versions of the Clint Eastwood The Man With No Name series of spaghetti westerns that led to major chart hits. Montenegro began scoring motion pictures with the instrumental music from Advance to the Rear in 1964. Following the success of his albums, he was contracted by Columbia Pictures where he did such films as Hurry Sundown (film) and two Matt Helm pictures. Montenegro was also contracted to Columbia's television production company Screen Gems where he is most famous for his theme from the second season of the television series I Dream of Jeannie, his theme song "Seattle" and music from Here Come the Brides and The Outcasts. During the mid‑60s he started producing some of the most renowned works from the space age pop era, featuring electronics and rock in albums such as Moog Power and Mammy Blue. Montenegro's electronic works were decisive and influential for the future generations of electronic musicians, giving a retro/futuristic edge by the use of the Moog synthesizer, and helped to push its popularity.[citation needed] He will be also remembered by his versions of classics such as the main theme to Sergio Leone's film The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, originally composed by Ennio Morricone. This was Montenegro's biggest pop hit, reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, #3 in the Canadian RPM Magazine charts, and spending four weeks atop the UK Singles Chart in 1968. His version of the theme from Hang 'em High reached #59 in Canada. In the late 1970s severe emphysema forced an end to his musical career, and he died of the disease in 1981. His remains were buried at Welwood Murray Cemetery in Palm Springs.
Elvis Presley
Elvis Aaron (or Arona) Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American musician and actor. A cultural icon, he is widely known by the single name Elvis. He is often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King". Born in Tupelo, Mississippi, Presley at the age of 13 moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. He began his career there in 1954 when Sun Records owner Sam Phillips, eager to bring the sound of African American music to a wider audience, saw in Presley the means to realize his ambition. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was one of the originators of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country and rhythm and blues. RCA Victor acquired his contract in a deal arranged by Colonel Tom Parker, who would manage the singer for over two decades. Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", released in January 1956, was a number one hit. He became the leading figure of the newly popular sound of rock and roll with a series of network television appearances and chart-topping records. His energized interpretations of songs, many from African American sources, and his uninhibited performance style made him enormously popular—and controversial. In November 1956, he made his film debut in Love Me Tender. Conscripted into military service in 1958, Presley relaunched his recording career two years later with some of his most commercially successful work. He staged few concerts, however, and, guided by Parker, proceeded to devote much of the 1960s to making Hollywood movies and soundtrack albums, most of them critically derided. In 1968, after seven years away from the stage, he returned to live performance in a celebrated comeback television special that led to an extended Las Vegas concert residency and a string of profitable tours. In 1973, Presley staged the first concert broadcast globally via satellite, Aloha from Hawaii, seen by approximately 1.5 billion viewers. Prescription drug abuse severely compromised his health, and he died suddenly in 1977 at the age of 42. Presley is regarded as one of the most important figures of 20th-century popular culture. He had a versatile voice and unusually wide success encompassing many genres, including country, pop ballads, gospel, and blues. He is the best-selling solo artist in the history of popular music. Nominated for 14 competitive Grammys, he won three, and received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award at age 36. He has been inducted into four music halls of fame.
Dream
Dream, formerly called DRM, is an all-female J-pop chorus group. In May 1999, the Japanese record company Avex Trax held a contest in the hopes of looking for new talent. After going through 120,000 Japanese contestants, Mai Matsumuro, Yu Hasebe and Kana Tachibana were chosen to form the new group "Dream". Many consider the first three girls as the first generation of Dream, which made its debut on January 1, 2000 with the single "Movin' on." Dream consisted of those three members until July 7, 2002 when Mai Matsumuro graduated to a solo career. Six new younger members joined the group (Risa Ai, Erie Abe, Aya Takamoto, Ami Nakashima, Shizuka Nishida and Sayaka Yamamoto) which allowed people to draw comparisons between the "new Dream" and another Japanese pop group, Morning Musume. Dream remained an 8-member dance & chorus group until the graduation of member Ai Risa on March 28, 2004. On June 25, 2007, the group decided it was time to have a makeover, and changed their name from Dream to DRM. The name reflects the change in the group itself, from a "young adolescence" image, to a "mature ladies" image. On July 22, 2008, it was announced that Yu Hasebe had left DRM, and that the group was changing its name to Dream. The remaining girls continued and in fall 2008 they worked together with the popular band EXILE. They recorded the song Love, Dream & Happiness along with the PV for EXILE's album, EXILE BALLAD BEST. After a longer absence on the release sector, Dream has finally announced the release of a new single titled Perfect Girls for September 2009.
