MultiTracks Now Available from Split the Sky by Chris Quilala Friday, November 11, 2016 Jesus Culture founding member and worship leader Chris Quilala has brought a unique new sound to his debut solo album, Split the Sky. This album was largely influenced by retro pop and futuristic soundscapes and it carries themes of hope, encounter, and the Father's deep desire to have a relationship with us.

In holiness I’m face to face." This anthem truly captures the heart of the album as it speaks of God's unrelenting pursuit of us and declares our adoration and total surrender to Him. "Won My Heart" continues on this theme, offering Jesus all that we are as it examines the way He has transformed us with His love.

New MultiTracks Available from North Coast Worship - All Tuesday, November 8, 2016 North Coast Worship was born out of the desire to create powerful, moving music with themes and lyrics inspired by the culture of Vista, California's North Coast Church, as well as to inspire the congregation to a closer walk with Christ and to sing a prayer they didn’t know they needed to sing. They have just released a new EP titled All, following up on their 2015 self-titled debut release. These new songs are simple and congregational and they carry themes that focus on surrendering our lives in obedience to the King as an expression of our love for the Him. The album's title track, "All" declares the sufficiency of Christ and our need for Him. Band member and producer Andrew Polfer shares, "We were created to be reliant on Jesus. In both seasons of hardship and blessing, and especially in death we will still look to Jesus as our satisfaction and reward." "Voice Like Thunder" is a fun and energetic song that was inspired by the popular synth-driven sound of the 80s. The song captures the awesomeness of our God as we approach Him as His children, praising His power and proclaiming His majesty. All is now available on iTunes. Download your copy today!
