Real Name:  Simon Lewis, Stephen Joyce
Profile:
Amanaska was born sometime in 2001 in the brain of Simon Lewis when he began experimenting with mixing elements of electronica with jazz and funk and various musical languages from around the globe he had ingested during travels abroad. He shared some of these ideas with the guys at One World Records who got excited about it too and suggested doing an album. Flying solo can be a lonely ride so Simon asked Stephen Joyce to come on board and add is unique musical approach to the project and together they finished the first album Panorama. 

Lewis has been touring for the last few years on a busy schedule that has taken him all over the U.S. several times, Canada, across Europe, and to parts of Asia. The first tour in the U.S. was eight weeks and the band drove about 17,000 miles. He was able to make use of all the time in the van by working on new tunes for the live show, remixing tracks from Panorama, as well as writing new material for the latest Amanaska release, Circles. 

Most of the album was composed on the road in all kinds of corners of the globe with artists in India, Singapore, Scotland and the USA. 2005 was spent mainly at home in Melbourne, Australia finishing the project with some local musicians that performed on the last album plus many new players. The album features some stunning vocal performances from Tania Doko (Batchelor Girl), Lynelle Moran(Velure) and Janine Maunder (Naked Raven). 

Amanaska can also be found playing keyboards for Nfa from 1200 Techniques and Reverend Funk around Oz when he is at home. 

Amanaska is a Sanskrit term that refers to the perfect balance of restfulness, alertness and strength and this musical project of the same name explores a similar balance of unusual musical styles, the latest in grooves and sounds, and an eclectic collection of instruments, musicians and singers from a wide range of backgrounds.

真正的名字：西蒙·劉易斯，Stephen Joyce
簡介：
阿馬納斯加2001年出生於西蒙·劉易斯大腦的時候，當時他開始試用混合電子元素的爵士樂和樂曲，以及他在國外旅行中吸取的各種音樂語言。他與One World Records的同事分享了一些這些想法，他們也對此感到興奮，並建議做一張專輯。飛行獨奏可以是一個孤獨的車，所以西蒙問斯蒂芬·喬伊斯來到船上，添加是獨特的音樂方法的項目，他們一起完成了第一張專輯全景。 

劉易斯在過去幾年裡一直在忙碌的旅程，多次在美國各地參加過美國，加拿大，歐洲以及亞洲部分地區。在美國的第一次旅行是八週，樂隊開車約17000英里。他能夠通過在現場表演上進行新的曲調，從Panorama重新混合曲目，以及為最新的Amanaska版本Circles撰寫新材料，從而在貨車中使用所有的時間。 

這張專輯的大部分是在全球各地的藝術家在印度，新加坡，蘇格蘭和美國的道路上組成的。2005年主要在澳大利亞墨爾本的家中度過，與一些本地音樂家合作，在最後一張專輯上加入了許多新玩家。該專輯的特色是來自Tania Doko（Batchelor Girl），Lynelle Moran（Velure）和Janine Maunder（Naked Raven）的令人驚嘆的聲樂表演。 

當他在家時，Amanaska也可以在1200技術和Funk周圍的Oz上找到Nfa的鍵盤。 

Amanaska是一個梵文術語，指的是寧靜，警覺和力量的完美平衡，同名的這個音樂項目探索了不同尋常的音樂風格，最新的凹槽和聲音的類似平衡，以及樂器收藏，音樂家和歌手來自廣泛的背景。

Amanaska 在參與 Zen Connection、Eco Zen 等合輯獲得巨大成功後,由 One World Music 於2006年結集出版了這張專輯,專輯的一些新曲目還收錄在次年的 Buddha Bar IX、Klassik Lounge 6、The Chillout Lounge、Cafe Zen等著名沙發系列當中,由此也可看出整張專輯的水平和影響力,個人尤為喜歡裡面有輕柔女聲加盟演繹的曲子,例如試聽的Sleep (已收錄入佛之吧系列).
