Lionder in Athens

Hello, everyone. My name is Lionder and today I'm going to be talking to you about my new song "No Pressure" . I'm very excited that my new song is finally out! I've been working on this for quite a long time. This song is about being pressured. Whether that is peer pressure or family pressure, or pressure from work or anything. It doesn't have a certain theme so everybody can relate to it. I started writing the song back in October. It's a song/video that took me nearly 5 months to create, direct, visualize etc. I'm going to give you a detailed analysis of the music video.  First things first, I'd like to mention that visualizing the video was such. a hard. process.

I tried to dig and dig and dig a little deeper into my mind just to find an idea for the video but it was so hard. I asked my friends to help me with th

Hello, everyone. So, today I thought it would be a great idea to just start talking about random stuff. It doesn't have to do with anything specific, just random stuff that come in my mind as I'm writing in this little little blog. My favorite social media site is maybe Instagram.

I've never been so passionate about taking pictures before; only when I made an instagram account. But Facebook is a great way to connect with my friends and mo

Hello, everyone!  My new song is out now!  Go see it, download it!!!  http://lionder.bandcamp.com/track/hot-outside Hooray, I am so happy.  A little story about it.

This year, after having my song "For Peace" remixed by Antibassis, I asked him to help me with "Hot Outside" and he gladly did!  Video Shooting I asked a friend of mine and my best friend, Nick, to help with the video shooting and it went pretty cool.    The first video shooting day, we spent 4 hours because we did it in beach full of people who would cross the way in front of the camera so we had to wait and try again, wait and try again, wait and try again. Even though it was a tiring process that didn't really ended with a lot of footage, video shooting with your friends is great. I mean, when I'm all alone, I don't have fun at all.  I try to stay focused and when something
