You may not yet have heard the name 'Otherwise Fine' before. 'Otherwise Fine' is a relatively new project (November 2018), combining several sounds and influences into something new and refreshing in the electronic scene. In late 2018 Otherwise Fine self-released their debut 8 track EP and have been steadily gaining traction due to their unique sound that combines the musicality and emotion of acoustic songwriting with the textures and energy of electronic production.
Otherwise Fine consists of Spencer Baird and Jake Sinclair. The duo initially met through the Toronto Dj scene, where they shared a residency at the same night club. In late 2017, Spencer had begun production on what would ultimately become their debut EP, but after moving to France had to shelf the project. Almost a year later, and while still in France, Spencer decided to re-visit the EP. Sharing a similar taste in the music that influenced the EP, and a common creative aesthetic, Spencer reached out to Jake to help create a visual identity for the project. Despite living on different continents, with Spencer at the helm of music production and Jake steering the artistic direction, the Canadian duo officially launched the Otherwise Fine project in November of 2018.
Not all of the music created by Otherwise FIne passes our strict acceptance criteria. The song: 'I Still Miss U' is a song to avoid because of explicit language. We are giving 'Otherwise Fine' the benefit of the doubt, and we don't want to slam the door shut because of something that may not occur again (1 track out of 16 has an issue). We will be looking closely at their future releases, and if we see a turn towards lyrics and/or video clips that disagree with a Christian lifestyle, the artist will be removed from our station, all of our playlists and socials.

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...

"The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL: At the Cross, Where Mercy Meets the Weary Heart

Rooted in the story of Jesus giving Himself at Calvary for everyone, "The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL turns this familiar message into a very personal invitation. Just stop carrying what is crushing you ( "Lay it down, let it go" ), surrender it to Christ, and let Him hold you. These lyrics are not only about the cross at Calvary. It's also about your cross, your fear, your shame, and your need for His peace. "Darkness fell, I was breaking fast," and we may count on the forgiving arms of a merciful Savior who is always there, even when our lives feel cold and heavy. "At the cross // You gave it all, you felt the cold // and love took hold // and made me whole." It's at the cross where "mercy bled and grace was born" for you, personally. It's where His grace clears your way home. What does that mean for us today? It means that we do not need to walk or carry our burdens alone. We may place everything that weighs u...

"He's My Rock" by Jamar Esaw & Triad 4 Christ: Finding Shelter in the Storm

(by Jasper Tan) “He’s My Rock” by Jamar Esaw & Triad4Christ featuring Koriann Lewis-Freeman is a powerful contemporary Gospel track that delivers a blend of traditional worship and modern soul. It reminds me of some of the songs by the band DC Talk, which was the definitive sound of modern Christian Contemporary Music when it exploded in the music scene back in the 90’s. This contemporary Gospel track brings forth an energetic sound that updates the way we sing our praise and worship sessions in our Churches. The song brings in a raw modern energy that breaks tradition while also encouraging worship sessions to be more in tune with the times, which brings a lot of youthful energy. The song is powered by Jamar Esaw’s smooth, commanding vocals and Koriann Lewis-Freeman’s additional vocal range. Bringing in an electric chemistry rooted in the authenticity of emotions as they sang the lyrics of the song. This is clearly felt during the song’s build-up to its climactic moments. With a r...
