“Borey is the project of the young St. Petersburg producer , and his new track 'Hyperborea' is an amazing symbiosis of classical chillwave and experimental idm. This work is a vivid example of how crystal clear sound and harmonious synth-wave melodies are intertwined with rare inclusions of field recordings, vibration of strings and live, mesmerizing guitar.”

“Проект молодого петербургского продюсера Borey, чья музыка являет собой удивительный симбиоз классического chillwave и экспериментального idm, выпустил в свет свой новый трек 'Hyperborea'. Данная работа яркий пример того, как кристальный, чистый звук и гармоничные мелодии synth-wave, переплетаются с редкими вкраплениями полевых записей, вибрацией струн и живой, завораживающей гитары.”

Borey - the producer from Saint-Petersburg, Russia presented his second single - Hyperborea.

Continuing to delve into ancient Greek mythology, this time Borey decides to voice the story of Hyperborea, a mysterious Northern country, the ancestral home of mankind, where groves and forests were people's dwelling, where they did not know what is disease and strife.

Even death came to the Hyperboreans as a release from the satiety of life, and, having experienced all the pleasures, they threw themselves into the sea, but at will could be reborn after death.

Having replaced the synth-wave aesthetic with an acoustic sound saturated with live instruments and various percussion and glitches, Borey steps on the ground of ethno-fusion and significantly expands the boundaries of his own creativity.

Hyperborea is a musical eclecticism in which you can hear both dub and art rock, atmospheric soundscapes and analog synthesis. Special attention should also be paid to the string section, which adds even more dreaminess and cinematography to the composition.

Mainly acoustic guitar and vocals, nothing fancy, I aim for plain beauty on these tunes. Hope you like it and I would appreciate it if you chose to share it on your media!

http://www.ivorywoods.com/

Formed by Finnish singer-songwriter Jussi Alamikkelä, Ivory Woods reached the ears of its indie folk audience in 2017 with their debut album Ivory Woods. The album consisted of songs from the previous couple of years and was put together with help from producer Matias Kiiveri and fellow musicians Atte Loponen, Jeremia Kangas, Matias Haataja, Aapo-Matti Puhakka and Joni Seppänen. It presented a unique combination of solitary, nature inspired folk songs with deeply contemplative lyrics and the band’s built-in rock n’ roll flow that had been bringing them together for years.

The group headed back to Hollywood House studios, Helsinki, in November 2017 to record their second release, All the World Is Yours EP, which was released in February 2018.

After focusing on touring, writing new material and launching an unofficial series of home recordings called Timberline, the band released their newest single Flickering Light with b-side Sanctuary in early 2020. The release presented Ivory Woods in their current 9-piece form with six guitars. The sound keeps on growing.

That eventually led me on the path of music creation and I worked my way through a few genres before landing in the ambient genre.

Astral Projection "Utopia"

Jesper Hasnaoui – It’s That Time Again (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Pop, The Latest|Tags: , , , , |

“You had a hard day and want something to reset your mind into a state of brightness and calm, it's that time again of search the right medicine. Music is one of the best, proven, and Jesper Hasnaoui with a gentle heartwarming vocal performance and his minimal guitar riffs and drums through a sound clarity is what you need now. Laid back and re-think more clean after listening this. ”

-Nagamag.com

This song is about how we still linger over the same memories every year, and that we should keep learning and exploring so we dont get stuck with what we know and what we think we know.

https://www.instagram.com/jesperhasnaoui/

Jesper Hasnaoui (1992) is an artist based out of Oslo, Norway.

He has from a young age played guitar in multiple bands, and always was the guitarist in the back of the stage. He realized that if he wanted to write music that reflected his own thoughts and ideas, he needed to write his own music.

Hasnaoui is a creative force inspired through a very personal contrast between emotional bliss and emotional desolation. With music being a therapeutic measure, Hasnaoui writes longful and atmospheric tracks, often accompanied by delicate guitars, soothing electronic blankets and mellow percussion.

He finds comfort in melancholy, nature and silence, but with a strong drive to create art, music and portraying emotion live.

Strong influences include artists like Bon Iver, The Tallest man on earth, S. Carey, Matt Corby and Blake Mills
