Belau / Band
“Take You to The Sea” – claims about their compositions. Belau originally started as a solo project by Péter Kedves in 2015. He was inspired by his travels and adventures abroad. In the world of Belau a constant buoyant mood and a sense of optimism meets innovative electronic beats. This genre of elegant and clean beats capturing the feeling of summer has been dubbed as sundowntempo. The debut song of Belau, Island of Promise was released in late 2015. A single-take music video has been shot for the song by critically-acclaimed and award-winning director, Attila Damokos. The music video won the Hungarian Video Music Award’s Special Prize and it was the music video of the year at some of the biggest Hungarian sites. Now it counts nearly 400.000 views. The first Belau song has been chosen the top hits of 2015 at Deezer Hungary and the biggest Hungarian news portal, Index; also appears in a famous HBO series called Aranyélet (Golden Life). In early 2016 the project expanded and became a duo with a longtime friend, Krisztián Buzás. Later this year Belau has returned with a new single featuring some flawless vocals from the young and aspiring talent, Böbe Szécsi, who also sings in the live act of Belau. You And I was released with an extraordinary lyric video and was performed live on Balcony TV. After the project turned into a band (featuring several session musicians) Belau had at least 70 live performances during one and half year in 10 countries. They played at major festivals in the region like Sziget, Untold, Balaton Sound. Tunes of Belau are also featuring in international commercials for Pepsi (33 countries) and Telenor. The debut full-length album of the band, The Odyssey has been finally released at the 16th of November 2016 with 12 new songs featuring several guest vocalists from the Hungarian underground scene. The LP brought a groundbreaking success with a double sold-out show at A38, they had a chance to perform in the UK, London and the possibilities for Belau are just increasing since then. One of them is the greatest
honor so far: winning the Hungarian Grammy’s, the Fonogram-awards for the best electronic album of the year.
