AjSil You-Tubes Musical Thrill

Ajsil

Every now and then I am directed to a new site by one of my friends.  This time it was my YouTube friend Ken who introduced me to Eleven-year-old Anthony Javier Silva or better known by his stage name Ajsil.

From the very first note of this boy’s music video he captured 100% of my attention! Most young artists his age sing covers of other artists songs and while this holds true for Ajsil, his originality coupled with some amazing video creativity, truly make him unique and extraordinary. This boy is not just a good little eleven-year-old singer, but he is already a true artist showing his own style and musical ability.

Ajsil has a natural musical talent

His Dad explains:

Aj became involved in music from a very early age working next to me in my home recording studio, shadowing and assisting me in my music productions and recordingajsil1 sessions. Being around music so early in life has helped him tremendously in developing an incredible musical ear.  He is able to naturally harmonize vocals on cue on any song as well as develop his own musical ideas and melodies.  He is extremely fast and accurate when recording vocals, doubling voices and harmonizing since he has been doing that throughout his young life. A few months ago, I asked him if he wanted to try out for a singer/actor/model audition in Orlando Florida and he answered yes.  He sang the National Anthem and received a standing ovation.  It was then that he realized his full potential for singing and asked me to help him with his music career.  I always knew my son had great talent and eventually would realize it himself and want it to go professional, but I didn’t want to force it upon him, the decision had to be his own.

He is of both Belgium and English decent, so he consequently speaks English and French on a daily basis. In addition, Loic studied German in school making him trilingual.  Loïc, like many youngsters who are singing eloquently by their teens, started singing very early.  In fact his mother disclosed to me that he showed a talent as a baby exercising his lungs with a cry that almost sounded as if he were singing!

Loic On PianoHe began piano lessons at just 6yrs old and at 9yrs he asked if he could have a guitar. While his parents hesitated for a while, due to his already busy schedule between music and sports, they finally agreed and Loïc received his first guitar as a 2007 Christmas present. It was when he started guitar lessons that they really started to observe his outstanding ability of both playing and singing. Continue reading “Loïc Van Hoydonck Switzerland’s Singing Star”
