█ █ Black Hole Recordings??? Ehm ... yes █ █
█ █ sirs ... Tiesto's label, so you █ █
█ █ might wanna grab it ... Sweet █ █
█ █ voice, sounds like Tori Amos █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ Driven by curiosity and guided by █ █
█ █ her own philosophy on life Esmaye █ █
█ █ gathered her thoughts and desires, █ █
█ █ transforming them into twelve █ █
█ █ beautiful songs on her debut album █ █
█ █ "Elements in Me". █ █
█ █ Inspired by the four elements she █ █
█ █ takes you on an intriguing and █ █
█ █ passionate journey, combining █ █
█ █ acoustic and electronic sounds into █ █
█ █ her own unique style. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ Early in life Esmaye developed a █ █
█ █ strong interest in music and dance, █ █
█ █ as a young girl she started writing █ █
█ █ songs to express her thoughts and █ █
█ █ emotions. Like a diary she kept them █ █
█ █ for herself, secretly dreaming of █ █
█ █ becoming a singer one day. When she █ █
█ █ heard about auditions for a local █ █
█ █ theatre play at the age of 17 she █ █
█ █ decided to give it a tryà. and got █ █
█ █ herself a part! The play turned out █ █
█ █ to be a success as they performed at █ █
█ █ festivals across the country. Esmaye █ █
█ █ didn't stay un-noticed, a producer █ █
█ █ saw her perform and asked her for █ █
█ █ his "pop" project, they recorded 2 █ █
█ █ singles and a video. █ █
█ █ The following years she worked on █ █
█ █ several projects, exploring █ █
█ █ different styles of music to keep █ █
█ █ developing herself. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ In 1999 she decided to take a rest █ █
█ █ from it all and started travelling, █ █
█ █ while discovering new places she █ █
█ █ fell in love with Mexico and got █ █
█ █ herself a job as a piano-bar singer █ █
█ █ and dancer in a small diner-show. █ █
█ █ Singing and dancing every day gave █ █
█ █ her the confidence she needed to █ █
█ █ make the next steps. After living in █ █
█ █ the sun for a year she decided to █ █
█ █ get her songs "out there" and moved █ █
█ █ back to Holland. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ While working as a M.C/Vocalist in █ █
█ █ clubs she met a couple of producers █ █
█ █ who wanted to work with her and █ █
█ █ within a year she signed her first █ █
█ █ publishing-deal. After releasing a █ █
█ █ few dance records she wanted more █ █
█ █ and felt ready to work on her own █ █
█ █ songs and discover her own style. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ A friend told her about the █ █
█ █ "TiestoÆs In Search Of Talent" █ █
█ █ contest and encouraged her to send █ █
█ █ him a tape. Esmaye won! Out of █ █
█ █ hundreds of contestants they chose █ █
█ █ her for her exceptional voice and █ █
█ █ qualities as a songwriter and █ █
█ █ offered her a record-deal. She █ █
█ █ released her debut single "Easy" and █ █
█ █ soon after that the worldÆs most █ █
█ █ famous DJ asked her to accompany him █ █
█ █ on his "Just Be" tour. Together they █ █
█ █ performed at prestigious festivals █ █
█ █ throughout Europe. After the tour █ █
█ █ she totally committed herself to her █ █
█ █ own career. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ "Elements in Me" shows many █ █
█ █ different sides of EsmayeÆs unique █ █
█ █ personality. "This is who I am, my █ █
█ █ songs are about my inner-search, █ █
█ █ reflecting my past and present █ █
█ █ experiences" █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ EsmayeÆs debut album shows all █ █
█ █ aspects of life in general. While █ █
█ █ exploring the deeper and darker █ █
█ █ sides of spirituality and emotion █ █
█ █ there are enough lighter and happier █ █
█ █ themes such as the sensual song █ █
█ █ "Gravity" and the inviting and █ █
█ █ inspiring "Open Lashes". █ █
█ █ "Elements in Me" also contains the █ █
█ █ obscure classic "Sugar Me" written █ █
█ █ by Linsey de Paul in 1972. Once █ █
█ █ Esmaye heard the song she instantly █ █
█ █ knew she wanted to record the track █ █
█ █ in a way that would stay true to the █ █
█ █ songs meaning but with a modern █ █
█ █ flavour that would make it fit in █ █
█ █ easily with the rest of her █ █
█ █ repertoire. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ "Elements in Me" is a spiritual pop █ █
█ █ record that flirts with elements of █ █
█ █ dance and electronic music. As a █ █
█ █ composer and lyricist, Esmaye uses █ █
█ █ experiences from her own life as a █ █
█ █ guideline to explore the variety of █ █
█ █ themes in her songs. █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ "You can find the strength to lead █ █
█ █ your own life, it doesnÆt matter █ █
█ █ where youÆre from or how dark itÆs █ █
█ █ been, you are the light". █ █
█ █ █ █
█ █ Esmaye is a groundbreaking and █ █
█ █ refreshing new artist with a mind of █ █
█ █ her own who doesnÆt shy away from █ █
█ █ the bigger picture of life while █ █
█ █ staying grounded at the same time. █ █
