Above & Beyond Pres. OceanLab - Miracle (Original Mix)

Blissful Balearic moments courtesy of Above & Beyond’s chart-hitting side project with Justine Suissa…

Ibiza - the birthplace of modern dance music. 20 years on and the island remains an important catalyst for today’s hottest dance talents. This year, OceanLab, the project featuring Above & Beyond and singer/songwriter Justine Suissa spent several weeks holed up in a villa there finishing their debut album, ‘Sirens Of The Sea’.

Seeped in Balearic brilliance, ‘Sirens Of The Sea’ is a mix of blissed out epics and dancefloor cuts. An album of depth, variety and serene beauty, showcasing a level of songwriting and production rarely witnessed within electronic music, and already drawing comparisons with bands such as Zero 7 and Everything But The Girl.

Lyrics:
When everytime I close my eyes and I see your face
And I know ain’t a thing in this world that will ever take your place
When I’m gone just know that them things won’t change
And I know ain’t a thing in the world that will ever take your place
Like a rhythm you play or a drum that you feel
My love for you well you know that it’s real
All that I’m sayin’ and all that she’ll do, my love for her well I know that it’s true
I don’t stop, stop the way I feel, because I love you
Lord I won’t stop, stop the way I feel because I love you
You gotta smile that lights up my life and I won’t let go
I see the moon and the stars in your eyes and I’m wantin’ you to know
It’s been some time you’ve been in my life since the day we’ve met
I think of you and the times that we’ve had I will never forget
Like a rhythm you play or a drum that you feel my love for you
Well you know that it’s real
All that I’m sayin’ and all that she’ll do, my love for her well you know that it’s true
I don’t stop.

The Bicycle of Fate

Erik Mongrain - Fearless

Erik Mongrain - Rhythms of I

There's nothing better than playing a peaceful improvisation during a time of reflection and absorbing life as is. I know I haven't played too much electric lately with the new acoustic guitar CD out now but I'm glad to be hitting it again with raw emotions and of course being free of any kind of stress. This is my goal in life, express what can't be through music.

Ever since I got my first guitar and sat with it for the first time in 2001, I improvised. I have been improvising and letting myself loose since then and thought this may be a cool new series to show you all not only my compositions but my present feelings as I improvise. Hope you can feel what I was trying to say with these.

Improvisation 10 - Peaceful Guitar


Two countries, two cities, one river. The Oder River not only separates the German city of Frankfurt from Slubice in Poland, it separates two different worlds from each other. Whether rich or poor, people try to seek their fortune there – but often only find their limits.

Hans-Christian-Schmid („Nach fünf im Urwald“, „23“, Crazy“), one of the most successful and exciting young German directors, made a moving film with an impressive ensemble, telling emotional, deeply human stories, subtle and moving, tough and yet full of poetry.

Notwist composed the music for this film, based on a pianoloop and minimal electronics, and recorded it with participation of Sebastian Hess (cello) and Saam Schlamminger (zarb). For the twelve-inch release the piece was remixed by Martin Gretschmann aka Console.

My family struggled in every country we lived in, before claiming refuge in Canada, our final journey. But as a teenager, nothing was harder than leaving the U.S. after nine years and with only 30 days notice. This is the story of 'Us Against Them'.

Happy to announce my second LP "The Lamaj Movement" is now released with Candyrat Records! The CD features some original artwork from me as well as descriptions of each track revealing the concept of the album. 

"The Lamaj Movement" - May 2012, features 12 original compositions based on my nomadic life thus far (Iran, Belarus, Germany, USA, Canada). Each track is a piece of memory taken at one point during our travels. Phew what a trip!

Music also available on iTunes, Amazon, emusic, etc.

Erik Mongrain is a unique and highly talented acoustic guitarist who can claim to be a master of a large number of styles using different techniques, approaches and textures. His style of playing and his compositions have earned him a considerable international fan base.

Erik Mongrain (born April 1980 in Montreal, Québec, Canada) is a true innovator of acoustic guitar playing. He grew up in Canada and began to teach himself how to play guitar from age 14. Erik, who was influenced by the artists Michael Hedges and Don Ross, began to progress into a more acoustic and more complex style of playing. His playing adequately captures the emotion and variety of moods of the artist, as if he is at one with the guitar which is of course a rare talent and very difficult to replicate. He is now recognized as an innovative performer and composer who embrace the advantages of acoustic guitar amplification, unorthodox techniques and altered tunings while celebrating a gift for melody. During the last 5 years, Erik’s compositional and performance skills exploded in sophistication, resulting in his dynamic “man-band” performances. Combining these developments with revolutionary acoustic guitar amplification techniques, he created a milestone recording unlike anything anyone had ever heard.

One of his trademarks: The “lap-tapping” technique is astonishing to watch let along hear. Better than anyone, he is a true master of the lap-tapping technique based around the guitar lying flat as he hammers relentlessly on different parts of the strings to make unique sounds with rapid notes with this extra layer of percussion as well as harmonics. In late 2006, a live performance of his signature song “AirTap” became a featured Video on YouTube, achieving over 10,000,000 views on the former to date and remaining one of the highest rated music clips. He has released two albums but is really best experienced live.

In 2006, Mongrain independently released his first album named “Fates”. His second album “Equilibrium” released back in 2008 was a true reflection of this man's brilliance and stature amongst guitar enthusiasts. He has proven himself to be a top class artist.

Released in 2012, his third album, entitled Forward, is more introspective work that aims to position Erik Mongrain as a film score composer.

Erik Mongrain is a rising star in the world of acoustic guitar, and one can only admire his extraordinary talent. His unconventional music explores possibilities never before imagined, commanding the attention of amateur and professional guitarists alike.
