Drakeford - Ruins (CCM)


'Ruins' by Drakeford is a captivating CCM song that delves into the depths of the human condition and the longing for restoration. The lyrics are filled with metaphors and vivid imagery that convey the brokenness inherent in humanity.

The song acknowledges the singer's own flaws and brokenness, recognizing that he has always been tattered and unable to hold himself together. The recurring theme of falling apart emphasizes the universal nature of human brokenness.

Drakeford - RuinsThe chorus draws parallels between personal brokenness and the ruins of ancient civilizations, serving as a reminder that no one is exempt from the fall. Despite this, there is a yearning for restoration, for the Maker to bring forth transformation and restore us to a city on a hill, a place of beauty and hope.

The second verse explores the fear of disappointing those we care about and the vulnerability that comes with growing closer to someone. The bridge introduces the concept of salvation and redemption, with the imagery of lifting hands in worship and the sacrifice of the one sent by God to save.

The song ends on a note of hope, highlighting the power of Jesus Christ to bring life to the ruins. It conveys the belief that even in the midst of brokenness, there is the possibility of restoration and renewal through faith.

'Ruins' offers a reflective and introspective perspective on the human condition and points to the hope found in Christ for redemption and restoration.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 61:4, Matthew 5:14, Romans 8:11)

"Coming Out Of Babylon" by Robert Peterson and The Crusade: Finding Purpose and Joy in Christ

Robert Peterson had barely dusted off his drum kit when the Lord handed him a new setlist. Robert shares: "this current round of songs being created were different - they were all his - well sort of all his." He had decided it was time to offer up his talents to the Lord. Robert writes: "I was mortified at the thought of actually giving my life to Him. I didn't want to give up who I thought I was."   "Coming Out of Babylon" is the first song coming out of this change (one that was on the shelve a while pending creation of a intro). The result is a five-minute testimony that turns a trembling surrender into a victory march. As you listen, you can feel how this slow ache of "doing what I wanted to… without a fear" transitions into the realization that "I needed You - all the way."   What I enjoy about the song is that it helps to see "leaving" as the first step that is needed to following His calling for us. The chorus emph...

Secrets Artists Should Learn About The Spotify Algorithm

Spotify's competitive edge is the amount of data it holds on listeners and the way it uses that data to increase engagement. ... Using the same underlying data and technology can provide unique insights to record labels and artists about who's listening to what and help them reach more listeners. The Spotify algorithm sets itself apart from other digital music streaming services. The algorithm is an AI system known as BaRT (an abbreviation of Ba ndits for R ecommendations as T reatments). Basically, BaRT’s job is to keep listeners listening. It does this by playing and suggesting songs it knows the user is familiar with, while dropping in some fresh tracks it thinks they might like, but most importantly, haven’t heard before. This makes sure the listener is engaged, but things never get boring. BaRT decides what to suggest to listeners by combining two concepts – Explore and Exploit. This combination is the key to the platform’s recommendation system. Exploit uses the listene...
