European Disco

I Can Hear You Heartbeat (Drop Out Orchestra Rework) - PART 1

Void and Ray — это творческий псевдоним Андрея Алексеева. Настоящий человек-оркестр, Андрей успевает всё: он и композитор, и поэт, и продюсер, и диджей, и шоумен, и дизайнер.

Псевдоним Void and Ray звучит практически как «Void Andrey» (Войд Андрей), но имеет глубокий смысл для самого артиста. По легенде, однажды Андрей вошел в состояние экстатического транса (без каких-либо веществ) и увидел себя лучом света в пустоте, которая была полна других лучей, с радостью и удовольствием летающих вместе в разных направлениях и пересекающихся друг с другом.

Андрей также чувствует внутреннюю энергию пустоты каждый раз, когда у него возникает потребность творить, так что это слово имеет для музыканта как психическое, так и практическое значение.

Андрей говорит на русском, английском, французском и китайском языках. Фонетика, графика, ритм и культура языков вдохновляют его время от времени создавать прекрасные треки на новых языках, как, например, «What a beat» на арабском (хотя некоторые мои друзья, говорящие по-арабски, говорят, что это красивая белиберда 🤣).

Так как не самое творческое прошлое Андрея связано с технологиями и финансами, он ведет шоу под названием «Risk Appetit» на своем YouTube-канале (ссылка ниже). Шоу посвящено нашим отношениям с деньгами и технологиями, а также тому, как найти баланс между творческой и коммерческой сторонами жизни.

——————————————————————

Void and Ray is scenic name for Andrey Alekseev. Man in many hats, Andrey does it all: composer, poet, producer, DJ, showman and designer.

Void and Ray phonetically sounds like Void Andrey but has a deep meaning for the artist. The legend tells that once in a while Andrey got to ecstatic trance (without any substance) and saw himself as a ray of light in the void which was full of other rays who enjoyed flying together to various directions intersecting with joy and pleasure. 

Andrey also feels internal void energy each time when there is an urge to create so that word has both psychic and practical meaning to the musician.

Andrey speaks Russian, English, French and Chinese. Language phonetics, graphics, rhythm and culture inspire Andrey to create beautiful tracks in new languages from time to time, like “What a beat” which is in Arabic (but some of my Arab speaking friends say that this poetry is beautiful gibberish 🤣).

As Andrey’s not so creative background is in Technology and Finance, he runs the show called Risk Appetit on his YouTube channel below. The show is about our relationship with money and technology and how to find balance between creative and commercial sides of life.

House music isn’t just about the dancing it’s straight from the soul… 

I had to steal the following paragraph from ERAN AVINER SIMPLY because it is 💯 % unarguably correct.. 

“Because absolutely nothing compares to music. This language, whose universal vibes can 
be understood by anybody, connects people around the globe be it religions, cultures or ethnicity. Great tunes turn strangers into friends. One note expresses more emotions than a thousand words. Music goes on where words fall short. It simply touches your soul.

I’m an eclectic DJ based in Liverpool, UK, originally from Istanbul, Türkiye. My passion lies in blending melodic sounds across genres like deep house, tech house, melodic house, afro house, lo-fi, garage, downtempo, world music, disco, and soul.

Someone once described my sound as “trippy yet groovy” and I think that still sums it up pretty well.

While my live sets are more dancefloor-oriented, I love creating mixes for streaming that are better suited to home listening.

Hope you enjoy the ride. <3
