An Unusual Music Journey In Today Messy Busy Music World

October 31 marks third anniversary of releasing Silentaria's first studio album; "The Beginning of the End". https://soundcloud.com/silentaria/sets/the-beginning-of-the-end

With 2 successful released music albums and two singles, former online entrepreneur; Rixa White is a living example to prove that there are different ways to success in music world while entrepreneurship skills are vital to get discovered in crazy busy messy world of music.

As an electronic musician, he compares instrumental music to reading a book before watching it as a movie title. He is not trying to ignore the important role of lyrics in music, but he believes instrumental music releases listener's mind to fly free. Once a novelist wrote him a note after writing non-stop and finishing one chapter of his book listening to his second album; "What's Real?". Listen online at: http://silentaria.com/whats-real/

His music also is very attached to his poetry and his interest in literature. One of his music pieces titled as "Sabine", after one of the main characters in Romain Rolland's Nobel Prize winner novel, Jean Christophe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDkFk7sWjKQ

It was not an easy journey and he's had his share of criticism and even being marked as the black sheep between New Age musicians. They told him that his music offer nothing close to tranquility of New Age music and create chaos in beliefs and leads to melancholy instead. Hearing these statements, he quoted from Nietzsche: "You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star". "I am not going to force my audience to relaxation and serenity, when everything is falling apart around them, I encourage them not to fear and experience the life as it is." he added.

His white outfit combined with an emotionless white mask visualizes his quote: "One Mask To Hide Them All" and probably some truth is revealed here, as Oscar Wilde noted: "Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeFke2b2Plg

His fans wrote long reviews on his music, even talked about their feeling while listening to each track. No doubt, it is a sign of his successful relationship with fans. As Mike DeGagne, music critics mentioned on reviewing "The Beginning of the End" album: "Who cares about the comparisons, or what other artists their music reminds you of, Rixa White aka Silentaria's "The Beginning of the End" makes for a great escape into the wonders of electronic music, and he gets full marks for making each track distinctive, individualistic, and eccentric."
