Cosmosophy and The Peaking Goddes Collective member Daniel Symons' solo project DYMONS debuts on 7th April 2014 Monday 8pm CET on the Chill channel. 

Daniel Symons (a.k.a. Dymons) started his musical career singing and drumming at a very early age, playing on his Mum’s pots and pans! In his late teens his love for drum beats, combined with his thirst for adventure, landed him on a train to West Africa and Burkina Faso where he traded his own drum kit for the local version - djembes. His quest for alternative life styles, cultures, and music since then has taken him over the five continents. Daniel Symons has spent over eight years on the road, traveling and gaining considerable musical experience, playing many different instruments and assembling a large soundbank, traveling as he did with a digital tape recorder on him at all times. His personal philosophy that "there's much more to reality than we can see" led him to explore different states of consciousness with shamans and medicine men from many different parts of the world. He has since gone on to help others experience such states and cure themselves by musically accompanying healing ceremonies and rituals such as firewalks, trance dances, and sweatlodges. It also led him to spend a lot of time in nature, where much of his creative inspiration is drawn from. 

He has now settled down in Switzerland to write and produce his music, which he mostly releases on his own record label Elestial Records. He has also however appeared on over 30 different album releases throughout his career, in addition to his involvement in two bands - writing, recording, mixing and performing with The Peaking Goddess Collective, whose debut release in 2007 was the album “Organika” which came out on Peak Records and also as a part of Cosmosophy whose debut album “Organic Space Age” was released in 2009. 

His first solo album "Druids Brew" is a potion made of the many influences he was blessed with throughout his traveling through space, time and beyond and features guests from all around the globe. Daniel Symons' latest creation is the soundtrack to Amrit - Nectar of Immortality. The film is a documentary about the Kumbh Mela, a sacred Hindu pilgrimage to the banks of the river Ganges. It is the largest human gathering in the world. A remix album of the soundtrack will be released in 2013 by Elestial Records. 2013 will also see album releases as a solo artist under the names Crystal Monkey (an uplifting psychedelic trance project) and The Light Shifter (a progressive trance piece). Throughout his career Daniel Symons has played and written music with artists from all over the world and has performed over a thousand live gigs in more than forty different countries, sharing the stage with most of the biggest names in progressive, psytrance and chill out music. He has also performed as a percussionist live with acts such as Eat Static and Adam Shaikh.
