Its 6AM... feel the disturbance

About Me


Music that does not challenge us, that does not move us or trigger our most deepest of thoughts; that does not touch our lives and that asks nothing more of us than mediocracy is the most tragic art form.
We are brought up to be afraid of one other, but I say let us embrace each other, understand one another and realize that the only thing that keeps us at bay is the fear of one another that we've been brought up to accept.
Reason is a poison one that penetrates the thick outter layer of ignorance and superstition and systematically breaks it down, till all thats left is the truth. The anti-venom is fear.
Some call it euphoria; others call it peace. To some it changes their life; and others it is their life. It brings both tears, and smiles, cheers and screams. It brings joy, and on the rare occasion it even brings pain. Its a force to be reckoned with, a blessing from the minds its idea graces, a gift from whom it was wrought, and something only we have the privilege to see. For some of us it is passion, and the rest our escape from the chaos that runs our lives. It is emotion through the physical world, a language, and a way of communicating that transcends all language. It describes the very core of our humanity, where we can no longer fathom words to express how we feel. Some will never know what it actually is, or how it comes about and manifests into its familiar form, and others will be able to manipulate it into pieces that will out live even them. It surrounds every part of our lives, has no cultural barriers. It is as much apart of our lives as is the daily breaths we take for life. For some it is the way they breathe…
From birth, till death, we shall be graced with its presence. Its sound will forever wrap its arms around us. It is our expression, our voice, and our life. It is our Music…
-Neil Dam
Neil Dam found his passion for music during high school. His influence of trance and electronica got him started with basic synthesizers and looping software. Where a typical phase in life leads to cliché results, Neil Dam stuck with the grassroots of Electronica/Dance music. He discovered the soul in music. Soon there after he began producing pieces of music that didnt just catch your attention, they questioned your reason for being captured. From this enlightened moment, Neil expanded his horizons to DJing, Jazz, and Improv Piano. All his efforts are to achieve one true goal...
....Music you can love
-Jay Ebue
The flow keeps you coming back for more. Deep feeling and thought whenever I hear the beats..you just cant help but smile . its an understanding to the music that makes me sigh..that sigh of relief..its like saying thank you for the beautiful music my heart and soul love to hear. Progressive at its best, for mewords can never express the feeling the body feels. Its a whole different level
