imaginary trip sounds

Serafim Tsotsonis é um grego que traz uma sonoridade electrónica ambiente, que alberga géneros músicais como a deep house, minimal, future jazz e o downtempo. Com dois álbuns lançados, Peak em 2006, e em 2008 So this is heaven, oferece-nos música para levitar e para descontraír o corpo e a mente. Com paisagens sonoras que nos possibilitam viajar, este grego e como eu li algures, está entre os Boards of Canada e The Cinematic Orchestra. Não será exactamente assim, por causa de algumas músicas onde a batida é mais forte e com traços house. Estará mais perto de uns Boards of Canada do que de The Cinematic Orchetra. Resumindo, música óptima para relaxar e tornar o nosso mundo mais leve e os nossos problemas quase resolvidos. E da sua editora, a Klik Records (que para alem de Serafim Tsotsonis, tem outros excelentes projectos), deixo as seguintes linhas sobre o mais recente álbum:

"Klik Records proudly presents the return of Serafim Tsotsonis, the musician who was characterized from his very first steps, as one of the most important talents of Greece.
If it’s true that the second album in the career of a musician is the most critical and “difficult” - particularly if the first one created big expectations in public and critics, Tsotsonis accomplishes with “So, this is heaven” to exceed himself as we knew him through his previous work, “Peak”, which enjoyed the most warm reception.In the 16 tracks of his new album, Serafim Tsotsonis not only does not hesitate to reinvent his musical style, but decides to go deeper in the philoso- phy of electronica, using melodies, sounds and rhythms with a great amount of inspiration. In addition to that he goes further, using elements of the modern post-rock music scene and of the avant garde sound of the past decades.
Serafim Tsotsonis does not follow the easy way, but he leads his music in experimental paths, without however leading to sound extremities, since his sensitivity as a composer, ensures the essential balance between the “innovation” and “classic”. Vocals are particularly important in his new album, as he does not only use them in the ‘classical’ fashion, but also as music instruments in the layout of his melodies. In order to achieve this result, Serafim Tsotsonis, collaborates with Elena Charbila of (Kid Moxie), Marien, Costa Dino, Willow Wieliczka, Zach (Ocean Mind), Angeliki Tsotsoni, Nadin and Dioni (Astyplaz)."
