LATEST NEWS: Gisele's song "Special" has been nominated as one of the 20 Best Australian Songs for a feature in the Weekend Australian Magazine. Please vote at http://www.ausmediaserver.com/song/vote.php
Gisèle’s music has been chosen by the Tokyo based Yellowbeat.com for long-term airplay in their Gone Fishing for Blue Skies selection. Listen at gonefishingforblueskies.com starting Sept. 30.
Gisele's song "Live it Up" is being featured alongside "Let Go" from Paul Van Dyk, in the NY based Friday Night Dance Party, podcast No.77. Check it out at fridaynightdanceparty.com.
Gisele is also a featured artist in Issue 26 of the Urban Mainstream Magazine, as well as by the solo female collective The Sirens of Sydney - www.myspace.com/sirensofsydney.
Out of a total of nearly 15,000 entries worldwide, Gisele's song Special made it into the quarter finals of the US based 2006 International Songwriting Competition.
Gisèle Scales is now billed as one of the hottest unsigned dance artists from all over the globe, with the inclusion of her tracks Versuch es on the Tunetank MMC10 Dance 2006 CD, Live it Up on the NMS '07 Festival compilation, Cafe, Armonia & Oh You on AMMA Issue 25, and Live it Up on the Bandit/Gotham Records sampler 2007. Add to this the inclusion of her track Café on the AIR Annual Vol.8 Electronica/Hip Hop compilation, and you'll appreciate the amazing effect her music is having worldwide.
Gisèle Scales 2 Think CD is an inspirational journey. Of driving beats, irresistible electric violin breaks, and uplifting vocals in English, French, Italian and German. This is a journey that will have you reaching for the play button, over and over again.
Having had success with the European No.1 funk single Mother Egypt by Vega, as well as a string of album credits with the likes of Midnight Oil, Eurogliders and Jeannie Lewis, Gisèle now unleashes her solo dance CD on an unsuspecting public. Think Kraftwerk meets Deep Dish meets Les Rythmes Digitales.
Possibly best known as a music presenter with BBC & ABC Radio and Qantas Inflight, composer/violinist/vocalist Gisèle Scales has come up with a dance music CD, that will engage lovers of electro, techno, breakbeat, rock, pop, tango, world music, the blues and classical alike.
Aware of the power of music to change lives, the 2 Think lyrics motivate even the most hardened of cynics. Universal themes of love and respect, dedication to a higher power, and recognition of the individuals unique place in this world, leave you with the feeling that you can achieve absolutely anything! Happiness is but a state of mind.
