Endless Melancholy and BILYK are exploring a retro 80’s sound in their new single “Running.” 

The Ukrainian ambient project Endless Melancholy departed from their original sound by diving into the world of synthpop together with their long-time collaborator, singer-songwriter BILYK. 

Inspired by the dimensions of the 80’s pop sound, “Running” was written in two places - the Canadian Rockies and then-peaceful Ukraine. The song is about the search for one’s true self and an embracing of all the voices that have their home within us. 

The video creates spacey images with explorative environments where one is contemplating unknown objects with curiosity, openness and excitement. Created by Roman and Helena Hense, the video is itself a journey of self-exploration through yet-to-be-discovered worlds. 
Co-produced and mixed by Taras Blyzniuk at Loud Mouse Studios and mastered by Joao Carvalho Mastering, “Running” united old friends and new collaborators with the desire to bring all strangers home with us in an exploration of infinite creative possibilities.

This is the first single from an upcoming Endless Melancholy - "Fragile" album, which is supposed to be released until the end of 2014. "Wherever" and "Somewhere" will be an opener and a closer of an album respectively.

PLEASE, NOTE: This is actually a fundraising activity. By purchasing this single you're helping me to fund one of my all-time dreams - having Endless Melancholy released on vinyl. The album is actually already recorded, but its release date depends on how fast I'll be able to collect the amount of money needed to make it happen. The faster I have the necessary amount, or at least a big part of it - the sooner I'll be able to order the production.

Every donation is a small step toward the goal and is highly appreciated.
Everyone, who donates 25$ and more will receive some pleasant benefits:
1) His name listed in "Special thanks" section to an album, both on digital release page and on a physical package;
2) Free digital download of a full Endless Melancholy - "Fragile" album two weeks before the actual release date;
3) A LP sent to his address once everything is done with no additional expenses.

Thank you all!


Somewhere

In 2023 I decided to revisit one of my very early tracks, 'Silent Dawn, Grey Twilight'. I always felt like this song had potential to sound bigger and even more epic. I asked some great musicians to help me with the recordings. So, more than 10 years after it was initially released on my 'Music For Quiet Mornings' album, here's 'Silent Dawn, Grey Twilight - 2023 Version'. Enjoy!

"Amber crackles like the surface of a quietly waking volcano, a rising melting-heat of ambient melody gathers momentum before fading and giving way to a wonderful piano refrain."

Closer (for Piano Day)

This is a reworked version of a track 'Like Ships Without Anchors' from the album 'Her Name In A Language Of Stars', cut and edited for my live set, which I used to play a while ago. I found it nearly as enjoyable as original (maybe even more), and decided to share it on my networks.

For the artwork I used a painting of a great Swedish landscape and marine painter Simeon Marcus Larson. I decided to leave it blank and not to use any fonts not to ruin the masterpiece. The painting is called Ångfartyg i solnedgång (English: Steamship in Sunset).

“One Day You Will Be Free” is a collaboration single between the Ukrainian ambient producer Endless Melancholy, and Ukrainian-born singer-songwriter BILYK. Recorded in Ukraine and Canada at Toronto’s Loud Mouse Studios it was mixed and mastered by Taras Trubbleclef. Artwork for the single was created by a talented designer Roman Hense from Germany.

“One Day You Will Be Free” is a stream of collective consciousness that talks about our full potential discovery and setting ourselves  free from social norms, that often prevent us from accepting ourselves the way we are. “You’re rising high but fall so low” relates to material possessions and fame that we often long for as a solution for our inner battles. “Its dust will only make you glow” – by having fame you will “shine”for the others but not necessary for yourself. When the right time comes you will set yourself free in any form (open to interpretation), so the social mask you are wearing can be taken off and you will be able to ‘fly’ (open to interpretation).

Released September 20, 2017.

“You and Me” is a second collaboration single by an ambient project Endless Melancholy and a Canadian singer-songwriter BILYK set to release September 21st, 2018 on all major music digital platforms. The single release will be accompanied by the official video filmed by the German filmmaker and visual artist Roman Hense. Roman has been collaborating with Endless Melancholy and BILYK since 2017 when their first single and the video “One Day You Will Be Free” were launched. 

After releasing a number of successful instrumental albums, Oleksiy Sakevych, a creator, composer and producer of ‘Endless Melancholy’, was keen to explore a new sound incorporating a female voice. This is when he invited BILYK to be a feature singer and co-writer on the project. BILYK shared similar musical style with Sakevych and was ready for new explorations. But when Hense joined the group he concluded a visual expression of the collaboration and set a mood to the existing sound. The big part of the project’s character was established by Taras Blyzniuk after he produced BILYK’s vocals and mixed both singles at Loud Mouse Studios in Toronto. 

The video is a journey visualisation of an internal world of a person who dreams about eternal love.  The main character starts the search for love in the cold world of the past.

Endless Melancholy​ - ''Fragments of Scattered Whispers' 
Label; Dronarivm 
Cat #.: DR-55
Format: LP (ltd. 100), CD (ltd. 150), DL
Release date: November 9th, 2018

CD/LP/DL: https://dronarivm.bandcamp.com/album/fragments-of-scattered-whispers

'Fragments of Scattered Whispers' is the sixth album from Endless Melancholy, a solo-project of Oleksiy Sakevych from Kyiv, Ukraine. It follows previous releases on labels such as Preserved Sound, 1631 Recordings and Hidden Vibes.

Arriving on CD, digital and heavyweight vinyl editions, 'Fragments of Scattered Whispers' is a collection of soft piano melodies and transparent ambient textures, gently flowing one into another. On this album Endless Melancholy continues with the tape sound explorations, started on his previous album 'The Vacation', but in a new, more distinctive way. On this occasion, Oleksiy teamed up with Krzysztof Sujata (known for his musical outfit Valiska), who did some outstanding job on processing the tracks through different kinds of tape recorders and mastering them afterwards. Accompanied by a stunning artwork by an acclaimed artist Gregory Euclide, 'Fragments of Scattered Whispers' is meant to evoke hazy reminiscences from the deepest corners of listener's mind, like a blurry photograph suddenly falling out of an old book.
