Lakeway is indie-pop band based in Kiev, Ukraine, founded by three best friends in the early 2013. The band is performing western-influenced music with sensual lyrics and romantic synths, inspired by their love to nature and human’s feelings. The first EP “Beginning” consisting of five tracks has been released later in April and gained first popularity in their home city. Right after, Lakeway was invited to perform on the largest Ukrainian music festivals during summer and was noticed by Ukrainian radio stations. Later on, in March 2015, the second EP called “Heartbeat” has been released and it had a quite different sound than we heard before. The melodies have become more powerful, gained a special tenderness, softness, atmosphere of desperate love and hate in one jar.

This song is about escaping reality and finding a quiet place within ourselves where people know each other just by feeling and don't have to discuss anything. I can't tell a lot about how it came to me... I think I was deeply in need of this quiet place for myself so i created it with music and just a few words. It has been recorded at Thank you for smoking Studio, in Montreal Canada, co-produced with Phil Pelletier who put his great touch on the arrangement. beaboxmusic.bandcamp.com fb.com/beaboxmusic Joannie Labelle, presents her project bea boX where her voice, electronic music and percussive colors intermingle and offer us a surprising organic texture. released 05 March 2015 composed by bea boX arranged/produced by phil pelletier & bea boX recorded at Thank you for smoking studio mix/mastering by phil pelletier drums by benjy vigneault strings by pascale croft text review by dylan blanchard photos by lili labelle & liana paré love provided by family and friends (thank you! you’re all so precious to me)

This mantra is addresses to the God of the Sun - Surya, who controls the time and preserves the Creation. "Mantras are not only make your worries go away and bring piece of mind and soul, but help to understand the nature of conscience and it is primarily a self-realisation practice for us. We get our inspiration in Mantras because they free our conscience of conditionality, which conceal it's creative nature. It's like having a breath of fresh air in the midst of concrete landscape. We are really glad we can share this treasure with our listeners. Once you've listened to it you get not only an aesthetic effect". Uma, Shanti People Vocalist Natasha Uma - Vocal, Harmonium. Bo - Sound Engineer, VJ. Denis Shvets - Drums, percussion Egor Bass - Bass. Links: shantipeople.com fb.com/shanti.people vk.com/shantipeople

Cepasa makes emotional understated dance electronica that is sure to turn heads. Going on a new beginning is always a risk, whether this is a movie sequel or Monday morning. This moment is a kind of crash-test of strength and belief that the way had been chosen right. The second Cepasa's album called 'Nove' became such an ordeal for him. It catches your attention first with its melancholic atmosphere and emotional depth that a lot of similar electronic music lacks. Lowered vocal pitches, slow drawing of swinging rhythm and variety of real-time effects - these are the distinctive features of every track in 'Nove'. The album also includes dance floor material, which was noted in the first Cepasa's album. Now there's no doubt new format of Cepasa with his album 'Nove" appears to be in a higher weight category. cepasaofficial.com fb.com/cepasaofficial instagram.com/cepasa youtube.com/user/cepasaofficial last.fm/music/Cepasa

KEMI - Shine 03:29
"This song appeared on one of the rehearsals, after one of the participants, Dizi showed us a demo he brought. He was demonstrating a session making changes in it and then he saved it by mistake. In fact, it all started with an error. We considered the session to be lost because it sounded completely different, but together we have created a song Shine we all got satisfied with in the end." - Katrin Dzigua KEMI: Dizzy Bass, Katrin Dzigua, Angus Frank fb.com/kemiband vk.com/public47799577 soundcloud.com/kemiband

Jimmy Spoon's third release was written in collaboration with American producer LBN667. Ambient sounds, tending to future garage and Lo-Fi roughness is a recognisable feature of LBN667. Having combining an unusual singing manner for electronic music and LBN667's textures from beyond, Jimmy Spoon made a mix that is hard to describe. There are some strong emotions in the "Flow", these emotions develop into a solid conceptual story. It's a deep and lyrical yet #experimental work. It takes five tracks to take a listener through various layers and themes such as human relations and parallel worlds. With this record Jimmy got one step closer to his own sounding - nothing is restraining his singing tending to bluesy ardor and gothic detachment at the same time.

This song contains a metaphor, where people are being depicted as mirrors and each of them is alone even though they are all together. The sunlight falls upon them, but being a mirror all they do is reflecting the light on each other. These sunbeams are just like tears. They relate to people. People actually lonesome, but co-exist looking in each other an addition to one-selves, look for one-selves in others. There is a line - "Will you ever fall in love again?"It shows the majority of people are being selfish, they wait until someone falls in love.

about

"Inspired by Him only, I discover what is already created by Him [Nārāyaṇa] under His vision as the all-pervading Supersoul, and I also am created by Him only." Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 2.5.17

Two identities of soul, the Supersoul and the individual soul, are admitted to be in the living entity, even by the greatest authority of the universe. The Supersoul is the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead, whereas the individual soul is the eternal servitor of the Lord. The Lord inspires the individual soul to create what is already created by the Lord, and by the good will of the Lord a discoverer of something in the world is accredited as the discoverer. Srila Prabhupada's Commentary to Ś. B. 2.5.17
