Side Liner

http://www.facebook.com/sidelinermusic Side Liner began as a project in 2004 by Nick Miamis in Athens, Greece to explore the emotional side of music and give shape to the events of the day. His music is best noted for the continuous flow of thought it creates, often visually stimulating and evocative of a particular mood -- without the jarring interruptions of so much of today's electronic and chillout music.

Side Liner began as a project in 2004 by Nick Miamis in Athens, Greece to explore the emotional side of music and give shape to the events of the day. His music is best noted for the continuous flow of thought it creates, often visually stimulating and evocative of a particular mood -- without the jarring interruptions of so much of today's electronic and chillout music.

The sounds created by Nick in his studio by the sea are heartfelt expressions of his concerns for the future -- whatever it may bring.

Side liner has released 9 full albums: ?Emotional Diving? (2006), ?Once Upon A Time? (2007), ?My Guardian Angel? (2008) ,?Crying Cities? (2009), ?Missing Pieces Of A Puzzle? (2009) , "Human Recycle" (2010), "Dream Stealers (2011), ?Missing Pieces Of A Puzzle 2? (2012), "I A Bird Now" (2012) all through Cosmicleaf Records.

Miamis often releases "beta" versions of a track through Last.fm and other music channels on the web to get feedback from the public before finalizing an album. He personally reads and often responds to the feedback he receives through "shouts". His broken English is testament to his desire to get everything he does "just right", and the final production is usually flawless.

The critics have taken note of the body of work from Miamis and have begun to help spread the word-- or the music. As Groove Magazine perfectly described, "Side Liner's music is a journey through sublime textures that hopscotch between comforting warmth and oblique menace. Running the gamut from ambient to breaks, (the music) soars through dreamy soundscapes where Side Liner's chilling vision of the future collides head-on with the realities of a perplexing modern world."

Nick Miamis began releasing his music in 1999, his first record deal with Discobole Records. Under various names before Side Liner project, his work was mostly considered "trance". Miamis has created or produced over 202 tracks, covering 75 releases -some of whom were on "chillout" compilations as well as his own albums.
