As promised on my previous post, I will be sharing with you the series of events that I will be attending and it would be a great pleasure to share these events with you guys! So, let's start with the first one.
The Queen City of the South and the nearby Islands in the Visayas region experienced horrendous natural calamities for the past few months and even though the news are gone and people are starting to recover, no one can erase the horrifying experience in Visayas. Tragic, yes...but it is about time for Visayas to stand up and keep moving forward. This is the objective of
LifeDance Sinulog 2014!
LifeDance Sinulog 2014 - Transcend Through Time
To celebrate resiliency and the renaissance of the Visayas region, LifeDance is very proud to share with everyone the BIGGEST stage established in Cebu (so far), better sound quality and light show, awesome guest lounge, more and improved portalets and, the most important part, is to impart fairly what we can --proceeds will be given to Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc (RAFI) to budget shelter and primary needs to survive for those who were greatly damaged by the recent earthquake and super typhoon, Yolanda.

'Helium' by Chris Lake featuring Jareth is out now at iTunes: http://smarturl.it/Helium
Over the past six years, English producer and DJ Chris Lake has traveled the globe indulging his audience in the deeper throngs of electronic music. With crossover hits such as ‘Changes’, ‘La Tromba’, ‘Only One’, ‘Sundown’ and ‘If You Knew’ as well as presence in the darker and deeper side of electronic music, Chris has become known as a ‘champion of creative freedom’.
Signed to a worldwide deal with NY-based imprint Ultra Records, his most recent releases include ‘Black Thong’, (a collaboration with producer Michael Woods), and other single ‘Ohh Shhh.’ A career which is split in two with a major focus for Chris as the head honcho for his label, Rising Music.
Rising has become an avenue to grow and support young and talented artists, and Lake has proved his A&R skills by signing talents such as Nom de Strip and TJR.
Chris plans on spending 2013 continuing to tour the world, as well as releasing new music as a producer and supporting the acts on his imprint Rising Music.

As the USA’s dance music scene continues to come of age on a widespread scale and different styles proliferate and evolve, new talents are coming thick and fast. Only a few have the staying power to go the distance, however.
Formerly known as Nick Terranova, U.S talent Starkillers has been cutting a swathe through the bolshier end of the global house music scene with his tough-edged, eclectic sound. Blending big hooks and riffs, soaring vocals, thumping beats and mind-bending effects trickery, his sound is the perfect blend of high-octane, fierce energy and accessible appeal. It’s truly at home amidst the contemporary sound of cutting-edge dance music.

| BOBINA at LifeDance Sinulog 2014 |
The Producer: Taking the name from the Russian word for a reel-to-reel tape, Bobina sprang to life in Moscow in 2003. Moving the act swiftly towards its first album, he released his freshman long-player, ‘Catchy’ in 2004. Bobina’s sound spread wildfire-like across his home country, turning ‘Catchy’ into the country’s first #1 electronic dance album. ‘Lazy World’, the first single taken from it was signed to the DeepBlue label in the UK and marked the first international step in Bobina’s career. In 2005 Dmitry followed this up with the vocal anthem ‘September Rain’ under the moniker Zenon. With A-list DJs Ferry Corsten, Paul van Dyk, and Paul Oakenfold wasting little time in picking up on the track, it was signed to the NewState/Maelstrom music group for a UK release. This deal ultimately paved the way for Dmitry to sign Bobina to the highly respected imprint. His 2006 follow-up album ‘Beautiful Friend’ posted week-1 sales in Russia of over 10,000 units and the video for the single of ‘Beautiful Friend’ made the Russian and the UK’s MTV network hotlists. After taking time out to begin establishing himself as a remixer (see below), in mid-2007 Bobina pushed forward with production on his third album, ‘Again’. ‘Lighthouse’, the first single taken from it enjoyed heavy airplay across Europe and earned Bobina the ‘Most Rotated Artist’ accolade at 2007’s RDMA’s (Russian Dance Music Awards). ‘Slow’ - an electro-trance cover of the Kylie Minogue hit - followed it in April 2008 and set the scene for the release of ‘Again’ the following month. Selling over 40,000 units in the first 3 months of release, it became Russia’s best & fastest selling electronic dance album to date. It has gone on to spawn the singles ‘Invisible Touch’, ‘Time & Tide’, ‘Lighthouse’ & ‘Honestly’. In September of 2009 the album for followed by ‘Again Remixed’. Featuring reworks of all the album’s tracks, it prompted DJ/producers like Ferry Corsten, Gareth Emery,Sean Tyas & First State to contribute reworks. In November both ‘Again’ and ‘Again Remixed’ were re-packaged to form a 2xCD set ‘Again – The Special Edition’ for the UK’s Maelstrom Records label. This made Bobina the first Russian electronic music artist to release an album outside their home country. Most recently with ‘Rocket Ride’ - his fourth studio album - Bobina commemorated the 50thanniversary of Yuri Gagarin’s first manned space expedition. In July 2011 the album took flight and saw Bobina dominate both radio waves and club floors with the singles ‘Angel of the North' and ‘You Belong To Me'.
