Lyrics: Closed off from love, I didn't need the pain Once or twice was enough, and it was all in vain Time starts to pass Before you know it you're frozen, oh
But somethin' happened for the very first time with you My heart melted to the ground, found somethin' true And everyone's looking 'round Thinkin' I'm going crazy, oh
But I don't care what they say, I'm in love with you They try to pull me away, but they don't know the truth My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closin' You cut me open and I -
Keep bleedin', keep, keep bleedin' love I keep bleedin', I keep, keep bleedin' love Keep bleedin', keep, keep bleedin' love You cut me open
Trying hard not to hear, but they talk so loud Their piercing sounds fill my ears, try to fill me with doubt Yet I know that the goal Is to keep me from fallin', yeahyeah, oh
But nothin's greater than the rush that comes with your embrace And in this world of loneliness, I see your face Yet everyone around me Thinks that I'm goin' crazy, baby, baby
But I don't care what they say, I'm in love with you They try to pull me away, but they don't know the truth My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closin' You cut me open and I -
Keep bleedin', keep, keep bleedin' love I keep bleedin', I keep, keep bleedin' love Keep bleedin', keep, keep bleedin' love You cut me open
And it's drainin' all of me Oh, they find it hard to believe I'll be wearing these scars For everyone to see
But I don't care what they say, I'm in love with you They try to pull me away, but they don't know the truth My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closin' Oh, you cut me open and I -
Keep bleedin', keep, keep bleedin' love I keep bleedin', I keep, keep bleedin' love Keep bleedin', keep, keep bleedin' love (love) Oh, you cut me open and I -
Keep bleedin', keep, keep bleedin' love I keep bleedin', I keep, (oh, keep bleedin' love) keep bleedin' love Keep bleedin', (I keep) keep, keep bleedin' love Oh, you cut me open and I -
Keep bleeding Keep, keep bleeding love
Remix/MashUp description: Enjoy this beach house experiment between Robert Miles famous hit 'One & One' and Sunseeker's ibiza track 'Sky Is The Limit' /DJ River
Mix description: Premiere for a new genre.. funky house, london style! -I got inspired to make this mix after a visit to London and the famous night club 'FIRE' back in 2006. In this first mix I want to take you back in time, and bring back those memorable club nights! In the coming sessions, I will progress into more of today's funky house, but in the same london style! ;) Enjoy! /DJ River
REVIEW: I've just finished listening to all the songs from the FreshAir Session Vol. 1 on youtube individually. Before you had mixed them that is. :) I did this to get a real sense of appreciation for all your work you put into your mixes. You transform all these songs into something else entirely, purely in a positive and improved way. While the originals sound good, the way you mix, mingle, and create these mixes makes them completely unique. I have already lost count as to how many times i have listened to the FreshAir mix now haha. /Michael Owens, USA
Remix/MashUp description: -A powerful mashup between Leftfield's 'Snakeblood' v/s Shakedown's classic hit 'At Night' Enjoy! /DJ River
Remix/Mashup description: -My very first mashup remix! You might recognize the lyrics in this one, from the classic tune from the 90's eurodance band Snap! - 'Exterminate'. In this mashup the tune is based on the newer electronic artist Cristian Paduraru - 'Masterpiece'. Enjoy. /DJ River
REVIEW: Once again the miestro of surreal music and orchestrated a collection of pieces sure to elevate you right out of your seat. Each hand-picked selection takes you through a auditory journey that captivates your very presence and commands your attention, yet in a subtle and provocative way just so you senses are teased by a merry-go-round of sweet esoteric dreams. Once you awaken from your subconscience slumber you will feel refreshed and invigorated!
/Jeff, 25 (USA)
REVIEW: Dont expect to jump around the room to this music, dont expect constant, pumping baselines. What you get in DJ Rivers Liquid Nonsense Vol. 1 is a cruisy glide through the spectral realm of Ambient & Psychill. It's relaxing at times, with deep throbs sounding like heartbeats underneath chime-like piano samples; at other places it is like a cold and foreign world. Liquid Nonsense Vol. 1 wont give you the same old tunes you may expect from DJ River, but it will hopefully excite and intrigue you with the fore-taste of Rivers new adventure into a refreshing genre of electronic music.
/Iain, 25 (New Zealand)
REVIEW: Awesome tunes. Top notch complication. VERY A++ MIX. 100% Trancy, good bass lines and sweet synths as for me. Super subsonic, very professional detail oriented mix. Keep up the GREAT WORK DJ!!! Greeting form Las Vegas, NV.
/Deschtroyer, 24 (USA)
Added on demand! :) The Happy Chillout Mixes was one of my very first mixes ever, the series then evolved into the later Coloured Room Sessions!
REVIEW: One word to describe this masterpiece: Euphoric! This piece alleviates you to an emotional plateau that's almost trancendant in nature and takes you on a journey only you can imagine! Absolutely wild and mentally stimulating. Intelligent musique! :))
/HEvans, 23 (Malaysia)
REVIEW: Excellent. Completely excellent. Relaxing, chilling, energizing music from River. Jazzy house tracks, pure vocals, every track is awesome. Honestly, I wouldn't be able to describe a better house/lounge mix for my taste.
/Sergiu, 20 (Canada)
REVIEW: Smooth, mature and impressively thought out. Seamless movement and agile transitions make for a dreamlike experience. DJ River demonstrates his mastery over sound and feeling, captivating the mind and caressing the senses. Fall into a soft, deep armchair and be embraced by the music. Perfection.
/Timothy, 27 (USA)
REVIEW: Pure relaxation. Drifting, senuous and emotionally sequential. Espe has the ability to traverse the entire network of chill, taking you from thoughtfulness to sublime enlightenment. Part II of the Mind Expander will dance across your skin like a subtle breeze and leave you refreshed and revitalized. Excellent work!
/Timothy, 27 (USA)
REVIEW: Starts with high quality sounds, very nice atmosphere. Melodies are great overall, guitars, bass etc. are nicely balanced with each other. Brass sections work aswell. I didn't remember the original song right away, but now it came my mind, very nice going in this remix. Drums are mostly basic, but simple is beautiful here. Bass drum is soft enough and fits perfectly to the songs atmosphere. Other sounds fit in nicely also. Overall work very well and the track sounds pro from beginning to end. Very nice remix and atmosphere is just great. Vocals are professional of course. Very very enjoyable and smooth track.
/Jarkko Saikkonen (Finland)
REVIEW: Infectious and addictive. Smooth, seamless, and thematically consistent. Energetic and cool at the same time. Great for dancing, driving, running, walking...breathing. Excellent work again, River.
/Patrick (Canada)
REVIEW: What more can I say. River takes us on another journey through chill house music. Going deeper into our minds with pulsating bass and crisp highs...Smooth as ever River. Right back at ya...
/Breckerbros (USA)
REVIEW: And yet again DJ River takes us on a wondrous journey of mind, soul and introspection. Fabulous, magnificient and simply outstanding mix. DJ River, my hat is off to you, with this Mix, you've simply outdone yourself.
/Pakna (Croatia)
REVIEW: Awesome!! It builds and builds whilst remaining calm and sophisticated. Each track sounds better than the one before, I've only ever heard Breaks do that before. Genius! DJKJ.
/Kelly Jackson (UK)
REVIEW: Finally, a chillout mix that is naturally relaxing. I stumbled across this mix while trying to find some soothing house, this is class man. Some 'chilled' mixes tend to drag on as they TRY to be relaxing, this mix just IS relaxing...great work!
/Vimlit
REVIEW: Absolutely marvellous and outstanding! i Chicane is my favourite musician and your mix is really NICE :) Moreover, what is really important after listening it hundreds of time it is still not boring . Pure energy, wind of freedom and sth flowing in the air! GREaT joB !
/hUud (Poland)
REVIEW: This is probabably one of the best tech house sets i've ever heard. Your mixing is just crazy! Keep up the good work sir :)
/Marco (Cyprus)
REVIEW: As a long time Chicane fan and a DJ, I can detect the enormous amount of work and respect that has gone into this set. Absolutely stunning!
/DJ Lurk - www.djlurk.com - (USA)
REVIEW: It's just awesome, love it, only those words come out of my mouth.
/Robert Francisco
REVIEW: Now we can see the imagination evolve into a more complex interweaving of ideas beyond ACM1, setting the stage for 3 and 4. A beautiful blend, with a very elevated (at times spacey) feel. The cross-fades are astonishingly exquisite.
/Patrick (Canada)
REVIEW: Very nice atmospheric start, reminiscent of Banco De Gaia. Slowly builds up into a perfectly blended set. Paced enough for a seasoned follower of Psy and accessible enough for those who have not dabbled in the genre before. I rate this set very highly. :)
/Sephiroth (UK)
Added on demand! :) The Happy Chillout Mixes was one of my very first mixes ever, the series then evolved into the later Coloured Room Sessions!
REVIEW: A wonderful journey through the mind, going where only you can be taken. I love it!

-:Thrillseekers Tribute:-
REVIEW: Hey DJ River, first of all I would like to say "Thank You" for this brilliant mix! I haven't listened to trance music for more than 1 1/2 years. Now, at the beginning of your mix, I really started crying, because "Dreaming Of You" is one of my favourite songs! I really love your mix because I keep thinking at the only person, I deeply love. :) Best wishes,
/André (Germany)
REVIEW: What a simply wonderful mix. It is exquisite! What a blend of orchestration and vocals! Gave me chills at time it was so moving.. Thanks so much for your magic.
/Dave (USA)
REVIEW: Another beautiful trip. Recommended on subway or train transfers, a must have on your ipod.
