In General: So, What is this whole thing about, you ask? Free Mp3s, and more! My name is Paula, and I'm the founder of this project. I'm a composer, and I wanted to self-release my compositions. It just seems a little too narrow to make an entire Website all to myself and about myself, and that is how the basic idea for this project began. I would rather share a Site with other artists, and the people who want to listen to our creations! It has been a gift to see this project develop. I am on Social Security Disability, and despite my limited income I have been able to produce an album and develop this Site. I have done so in a do-it-yourself manner of course. I believe that YHWH has helped me to see what is important in my life, and what things I must sacrifice, in order to make this project a reality. This is part of why I believe that it is not necessary to charge for a composition, YHWH will provide, if you let Him. I have done all of this despite being classified as "low income" and on government assistance programs. My first "official" album release, published to this Site, is titled "Free, Indeed." This is an intentional reflection of the heart of this Web project, as well as my gratitude for what The Father and His Son have done in my life. I have truly been set free. If you did not recognize this, the words "free" and "indeed" are a scripture reference. The specific verse I refer to is from the book of "John," chapter 8, verse 36: "If then the bĕn makes you free, you shall be free indeed." I have truly been set free. There is an entire testimony as to what has occurred in my life since I was called out of professing paganism and into YHWH's world. Some believe that striving to honor all the words of Messiah is a form of bondage, but I see myself as set free in Messiah's loving commandments. I believe that His words apply to all believers, no matter where they "originate" from. Without doubt, you will hear more about the importance of freedom through faith as this project unfolds. But, my main mission is to include free Mp3 downloads from various artists who have a heart for YHWH and Ha'Mashiach. All of these things, and more, presented to the esteem of El Shaddai and His Son. This Website does not endorse any extra-scriptural teachings. This is not a teaching Site. I am not affiliated with any specific sect or denomination, my basic doctrinal resource remains Scripture (and of course my relationship with Elohim!) "Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned at all." (Luke/Luqas 6:37) The above is an extremely important verse that I carry with me. I am committed to having the closest relationship with Messiah and YHWH that I can, and because of a personal experience I had, I feel that means experiencing Messiah by His "Hebrew roots." For me, this means I am most comfortable exploring the same traditions, and even attempting to understand the same language and values, of Yehoshua (also known as Yahusha, Yahushuwa, Yashua, Yeshua and other variations of pronunciation and spelling), The Messiah, at the time He was with us on this earth. By studying and relating to Messiah in this manner, I have experienced a richness and a growing closeness in my relationship with Elohim.

Accessibility: Netzarim Soundz is a project that will take into consideration many types of visitors, whether visually-impaired, hearing-impaired or just the average listener. Here are some of the accommodations in the works: 1. By providing long and short picture descriptions, I attempt to offer a more enjoyable visit to those who rely on screen readers. 2. In order to make this generally auditory Site accessible to the hard of hearing, I request that participating artists provide lyrics, a form of poetry to be sure, for viewers. 3. I will request that the artist videos produced specifically for play on this Site will contain visual lyrics or closed-captioning of some form. Videos that are equipped with some form of closed captioning or lyrical display will have the words "Visual Lyrics" as close as possible to the page link. Please be patient, as people have varying degrees of comfort with video editors. Some people may find it difficult to add lyrics to videos. There will also be special extras, like scriptural desktop wallpaper and stickers, which may also be saved to various other devices, for an uplifting visual experience. _______________________________________ I am taking every precaution I am able to make this Site accessible to as many people as possible. If there is anything that I can do to increase the accessibility of this Site, please use the contact page to reach me personally. I will respond as soon as possible, yet please be patient! The words from the heart directed at Our Creator are indeed the song of the soul which can be heard without ears, just like any psalm in our beloved Scripture. And, even if one has never been able to utter a word since birth, there is still the joyful music of praise in salvation, which can be found within the heart of any believer. |
