Yoann Lemoine aka Woodkid, is widely regarded as one of the most creative and exciting artists working in the contemporary music, as witnessed by his hugely acclaimed videos for Global superstars Lana Del Ray and Drake & Rihanna amongst others. Woodkid is the musical artist, the songwriter/singer/lyricist/producer, who has made this beautiful record. The visual aspect remains hugely important with Woodkid directing all his own videos and turning his live performances into a spectacle rarely seen in the world of pop music. Together with a 30-piece orchestra, he turned the venerable Le Grand Rex theatre in Paris into a place of ecstasy in front of 3,000 adoring fans last September. “When I started playing my own music, I wanted it to be as tall as a skyscraper. Images can achieve that. A really big orchestra can also achieve that.” 

This creative ambition and artistic freedom have allowed Woodkid to make such a unique sounding and powerful album as The Golden Age.  “It’s all about that time of passage between adolescence and adulthood, into that confusing hyper-reality,” Woodkid notes.

Book of Fears was started by Jason Rabe and Fernando Sanchez In 2013 while on a break from recording and playing in their other band The VLA. Jason first had the vision for Book of Fears a few years back while recording some material for a film score a friend of his was working on. He wanted to create something which was both Acoustic but also cinematic in it’s scope and sound… Stripped down but with a tone and subject matter that evoked the landscape of Los Angeles and it’s surrounding desert.
The actual “Book of Fears” was a pamphlet that Jason got a few years back from a friend who had picked it up at a home for the mentally disabled. The original ‘book’ was written by a paranoid schizophrenic who simply listed his fears alongside crude drawings which depicted the various things which frightened him. Such things as, "Feared of escalators" or "Feared of falling into a hole and not getting out." “Feared of bats flying at head” and so on… Although the pamphlet is lost, it remains the inspiration for the music and lyrical content of the songs.
Though their music is not overtly political, Book of Fears are very politically and socially engaged. As a result, the music and lyrics tend to reflect this aspect of their lives. Trying to find an angle or obscure way to express a political view is one of the goals for Book of Fears. Where we live, how we live and who we are trying to become as a community are constant narrative themes which they explore.
Both members currently reside in Los Angeles, CA and can be found wandering the streets most nights looking for a quiet place to grab a drink and eat some grub. See you out there sometime soon…

Egokind & Ozean is the project of two Berlin-based electronic music producers and sound aesthetes. During their studies of audio design, they merged their previous band backgrounds with an in-depth knowledge for rich arrangements while establishing Egokind & Ozean into a DJ duo as well as a live act. Releasing their first album „Transition“ in 2014, they were introduced as „Berlin’s new electronic generation of producers“ (Mixmag) convincing with a „prosperous debut LP“ (Groove Mag) by creating „intricately detailed electronic hybrids“ (XLR8R) between UK-infected house, dreamy ambient soundscapes, emotional electronica and deep techno grooves.
