⚡️Elīza Daine⚡️

Elīza Daine, kura līdz šim pazīstama kā grupu Purple Negative un Pretplūsma dalībniece, novembrī publicēja savu pirmo minialbumu jeb EP ar nosaukumu “dziesmas bēdīgajām meitenēm”.
“dziesmas bēdīgajām meitenēm” ir sešu dziesmu apkopojums, kas atklāj stāstus par cīņu ar skumju upēm, dusmu mākoņiem un savu iekšējo spītu tiem pretoties. Minialbuma skanējums raksturojams kā melanholiska, akustiskā indie mūzika, kur dominē akustiskā ģitāra un vokāla daudzbalsība.

Lai gan šis ir Elīzas pirmais solo projekts, mūziķe jau ir zināma Latvijas alternatīvās mūzikas scēnā kā grupas Purple Negative dalībniece. Ar savu solo projektu “dziesmas bēdīgajām meitenēm” Elīza paplašina savu muzikālo skanējumu, alternatīvā roka žanru un elektrisko ģitāru nomainot pret akustiskajām, minimālistiskajām indie mūzikas skaņām.

⚡️Rūdolfs Mikus Stelps⚡️

Rūdolfs Mikus Stelps mūzikāli iepriekš darbojies kā basģitārists grupās Advanced Blue un Purple Negative, taču paralēli enerģiskai rokmūzikai, pēdējos gadus vienatnē rakstījis mierīgāku, akustisku solo mūziku. Rūdolfa dziesmas dzīvi visbiežāk uzsāk kā latviskas dzejas rindas, kurās aprakstītas ikdienišķas situācijas un sajūtas. Vēlāk tās tiek apvītas ar ritmisku ģitārmūziku, ņemot ietekmes no indie un folk mūzikas, roka, blūza un visa, kas starpā.
