premiered. \u00a0I don\u2019t think anyone had a doubt that he would be anything less than stellar on the show, but I don\u2019t think anyone realized the impact he would have on viewers around the world.\u00a0 If you have seen the show you know what I am talking about; Javier\u2019s voice is undeniable, and combining that with his first-class demeanor and composure has authentically gained him millions of fans around the world.\u00a0 Since the premier, Javier has been on a whirlwind ride and we have been fortunate enough to keep in touch with him even though his schedule has changed\u2026\u00a0 just a bit;)<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Taking \u201cThe Voice\u201d out of the picture, the best part about what is happening to Javier is that the guy just deserves it.\u00a0 He has worked hard his whole life, rolled with a lot of punches, made good solid decisions for the right reasons, surrounded himself with a great team of people including his manager Stephen Brush who spotted him a long time ago, and has never given up on the dream of reaching the masses.\u00a0 For Javier, \u201cThe Voice\u201d is just a vehicle at a stopping-station on his musical voyage that has given him the opportunity to authentically connect with music fans.\u00a0 The timing has been great for Javier with \u201cThe Voice\u201d because he had just finished his EP in SONAR and gotten it up on iTunes before the show started.<\/p>\n<p>Javier recently stated, &#8220;I am at an exciting place in my career and have been blessed with an enormous amount of exposure as of late. \u00a0My EP which is self produced\u00a0and mixed in SONAR has really spiked since my participation on &#8216;The Voice&#8217; and is now # 130 on ITunes top 200 Albums. \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/noelborthwick.com\/cakewalk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Javier-Colon-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-5619\" title=\"Javier Colon 2\" src=\"https:\/\/noelborthwick.com\/cakewalk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/Javier-Colon-2-300x190.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"190\" \/><\/a>With everyone&#8217;s help I think we can break the top 100. \u00a0I&#8217;ve been using SONAR and Cakewalk software for over 10 years and I love it. \u00a0I went from using the program in college just to get my musical ideas down, to recording my latest CD, &#8216;The Truth-Acoustic EP&#8217;, using SONAR entirely; it has everything I need to make amazing recordings from my project studio.\u00a0 Thanks for all your support and I firmly believe \u2018What&#8217;s meant to be is meant to be.\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is a great period of time for Javier and other artists who can make their own professional recordings in SONAR and possibly end up reaching the masses.\u00a0 Yes the Major Labels are having trouble, but there are plenty of other lucrative opportunities out there for people who have the talent and the drive to take control of their recordings like Javier.\u00a0 The next episode of \u201cThe Voice\u201d will air on Tuesday at 9pm EST on NBC where we will find out the results of this week\u2019s voting; and of course we wish Javier all the best.<\/p>\n<p>There are three methods to vote if you would like to support Javier:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nbc.com\/the-voice\/vote\/\">http:\/\/www.nbc.com\/the-voice\/vote\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Dial 1(855)864-2308 (Charges may apply)<\/li>\n<li>Purchase the song on iTunes that Javier performed from here <a href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/angel-the-voice-performance\/id443938679\">http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/angel-the-voice-performance\/id443938679<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>A full description of the rules of voting can be found here <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nbc.com\/the-voice\/vote\/faq.shtml\">http:\/\/www.nbc.com\/the-voice\/vote\/faq.shtml<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>More Information:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cakewalk.com\/products\/sonar\/X1-Producer\/\" target=\"_blank\">SONAR X1<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5URGRA-frjw\" target=\"_blank\">Javier on the V-Studio 100<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.roland.com\/products\/en\/SONAR_V-STUDIO_100\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">Roland V-Studio 100<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.javiercolon.com\/index.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">Javier Colon<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/noelborthwick.com\/cakewalk\/sonar-x1-user-javier-colon-to-appear-on-nbc%e2%80%99s-%e2%80%9cthe-voice%e2%80%9d\/\" target=\"_blank\">Prior Javier Colon feature<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A little over a month ago we featured Javier Colon on our blog the day before &#8220;The Voice&#8221;
