DJ Mnx (alias Manue Dawar) started his career
as a DJ in the clubs of his hometown in Northern India in 2005 which laid a good platform for
his own electronic music productions. He soon experienced a kick start with some major label releases which
laid the foundations for various endorsements, shows and a growing fan
community.
But his personal satisfaction came when he had his first deep meditation
experiences and started producing new age music.
He never took any classes neither for music
production nor for meditation. “Meditation is never taught or done, it happens”
are his words. On his travels from
2010, DJ Mnx experienced many live sessions with different people and he conducted counseling sessions,
meditation classes and anti stress/drug de-addiction camps. These sessions were
taken only with music and the understanding for notes and scales came while
discussing other people’s problems.
This way Manue has found his own connection to music and discovered that
music has always been an answer to many problems. His passion for experimenting
with sounds is endless and he loves to make smooth and Indian influenced sounds
and this encouraged him to make a series of ‘new age’ influenced Chillout /
Lounge albums titled ‘Being
Buddha’
As Buddha says, don’t believe me. The emotion
shaped within the music tracks under this series of albums is intended to
create a process of thought in one’s mind which will help overcome what other
people say and encourage to explore what is real, the truth. Discover the
natural and the virtual world. Feel the intensity of an emotion, adapt virtuous
things and embrace them for good.
“Being Buddha Vol.1” is created with a smooth
ambiance and the sounds encourage love. Love for human and nature and it is
overall a relaxed experience. The music instruments used in these tracks are
sitar, piano, Jazz drum kits, e-piano, flutes, saxophone and tabla - with contributions of several people from
around the world.
It is DJ Mnx’s first release on label “Lemongrassmusic” and is scheduled for
November 29th 2013.
Happy Meditating!
