Journey into Ehden EP

Determined Soul EP

Rather than plow ahead, pause and look at the world as renewed!  Life has seen its challanges, everyone has felt its grasp one way or another.  Yet in all of it, find the beauty within, feel the changes coming ... fall changes to winter, life begins its new cycle as it moves from spring to summer.   bring on the sun, that light of life.... Bring on the laughter, smiles and dancing and let this set begin your jouney...  enjoy #progressive #melodic 

NOTATIONS: Turais Fuaime

Blind Hope

I’ve been to Hell and back
Maybe not a Hell on Earth, but a Hell in my mind
A Hell that burned a hole in my life
And brought too many tears to my eyes
A Hell I thought about ending
An ending I almost tried
I can’t say what stopped me
Nothing specific comes to mind
Maybe just a Blind Hope
Or some whispers of a new road
But when the darkness started closing in
I just couldn’t do it
So I closed my eyes for a new day
And always woke up to it

Ethereal: A Journey Through Sonic Reverie

In the realm of electronic music, where pulsating beats merge with transcendent melodies, a new series emerges, bearing the name "Ethereal." As the title suggests, Ethereal is not just a sound, but an experience—a sonic odyssey that transports listeners into the sublime, the otherworldly, and the elusive.

"Ethereal: Beyond the Boundaries of Sound"

Solas Glioscarnach: The Shimmering Light Mix

Inaugurating this sonic journey is "Solas Glioscarnach," a mix that embodies the glistening, luminous core of the Ethereal series. "Solas Glioscarnach," an Irish term meaning "shimmering light," is a portal to a world where each note sparkles like a distant star, where the beats ripple like sunlight on water.

As the music unfolds, it guides the listener through the intricate dance of sound and emotion, taking them on a voyage through the realms of light and shadow. The mix's intricate harmonies and hypnotic rhythms serve as the vessel, carrying passengers on an expedition into the depths of their own consciousness, where they will discover the beauty in the ethereal.

Join us on this voyage beyond the ordinary, where sound becomes an art form, and where every note, every beat, every melody, is a brushstroke on the canvas of the soul. Welcome to "Ethereal," where music transcends the boundaries of the tangible, and you are invited to lose yourself in the sublime.

Laethanta Níos Gile: Better Days 

Inaugurating this sonic journey is "Laethanta Níos Gile," a mix that embodies the glistening, luminous core of the Ethereal series. "Laethanta Níos Gile," an Irish term meaning "better days," in a sea of days that have plagued humanity with division, isolation and disconnection from the paradise that was given to us.  We as humans tend to think of the world as not living, a world to which was set us us to use and abuse in any way we please.  This will have consequences for us all as the world begins its cycles to bring order and balance back.   

Join us on this voyage beyond the ordinary, where sound becomes an art form, and where every note, every beat, every melody, is a brushstroke on the canvas of the soul. Welcome to "Ethereal," where music transcends the boundaries of the tangible, and you are invited to lose yourself in the sublime.

Brú ar (Original Mix) [ Release Date June 4 2021 ]

One of Atlantic Canada’s most respected and followed DJ/Producers delivers his unique musical journey.  Call it techno, progressive, melodic, minimal and driving, the pieces of music and the sound complies a story like no other.   
2018, was a fantastic year, with releases on the internationally acclaimed progressive techno label, Techgnosis Records, continuous momentum with his mixed Notations series and bookings both locally and beyond.  People are beginning to take notice and understand his musical aspirations. “Music is more than just listening pleasure; it’s an experience, a journey one must venture from all walks of life, pulling deep from within the truth of life, past, present, and future!  Music can make one understand who they are and what they wish to achieve.” Through this format, Charife delivers a story to lets people experience openness and freedom to let loose to explore his vision through sound…  Creation a are custom to the event, producing a vision, a story if you will, drawing emotion deep into the music. 
His DJ story is quite unique!!! It goes back to the spring of 1991 when we suffered from a serious car accident near Antigonish, NS. While in hospital, he had a dream playing his electronic dance music on stage as he watched people dancing with his taillights flashing to the beat of the music… The inspiration of seeing everyone enjoying the music, he started pulling together DJ gear and connected with the Secret Music Club in the UK that offered test pressings of the sound that propelled him into the DJ spotlight. His first rave was Jan 1, 1992, where his good friend Joe MacEachern (founder of the Evolve Festival - evolvefestival.com) attended. He had stated in 2011 “if it wasn’t for your musical influence over the years, evolve might not have happened…”
