Recorded live in his studio near Alexandroupoli, Greece, the album blends IDM, ethnic Balkan, and Mediterranean sounds, reflecting a unique fusion influenced by the region's cultural heritage, with no DAW processing, a rare approach supported by studies showing live recording enhances emotional authenticity in electronic music (e.g., Journal of New Music Research, 2022).

Lydia Has Seven Flats

This is a song that began with me laying down some bass, organ, piano, synth, and slide over a looped, heavily delayed guitar riff. I asked Ken to put some drums on it, which he did to perfection, as well as added some acoustic guitar. I then sent it to Tez, and asked him to come up with a lead part for it. He also delivered exactly what I wanted to hear. We dropped the initial looped guitar that was the whole basis for the song to begin with, which I think is pretty cool. Tez mixed and produced this, and what a fine job he did, too, as always. these two guys are wonderful collaborators--so talented and so easy to work with. What I told them was that I wanted to make sober people feel high when they listen to this. I hope it has that effect on you!

The Glories of Our Blood and State
by James Shirley (1659)

The glories of our blood and state
Are shadows, not substantial things;
There is no armour against Fate;
Death lays his icy hand on kings:
Sceptre and Crown
Must tumble down,
And in the dust be equal made
With the poor crooked scythe and spade.

Some men with swords may reap the field,
And plant fresh laurels where they kill:
But their strong nerves at last must yield;
They tame but one another still:
Early or late
They stoop to fate,
And must give up their murmuring breath
When they, pale captives, creep to death.

The garlands wither on your brow;
Then boast no more your mighty deeds!
Upon Death's purple altar now
See where the victor-victim bleeds.
Your heads must come
To the cold tomb:
Only the actions of the just
Smell sweet and blossom in their dust.

"Dino Steps" (edit: Mastered with iZotope Ozone on 25 September, 2023)

Here is a song which - despite it being played in minor key - was originally meant to tell a story of a celebration! You see, I recently got a chance to get a new electric piano sound library and especially a new lovely Dyno Rhodes sound which I so dearly love and which I believe to have been listening to all my life on countless of records and songs. So, I sat down, started to play and here is the end result. The sound, beauty and expressiveness of Dyno-My-Piano modification of Rhodes electric piano never ceazes to amaze me. You can play almost anything with it. The name of the song "Dino Steps" was partly related to that "Dyno" sound but also came to be as a reminder of the known fact that sometimes in life a step that seems small can be or mean a giant step. Finally, the name also came to be as a wish from a certain private party (that is, a certain natural person:) who happens to love dinosaurs.

The song was played by me using my old Korg SGProX digital stage piano as a midi keyboard and the Yamaha Montage 8 as a audio interface. The main electric piano sound here is the lovely Dyno Rhodes sound from the wonderful Dyno Expansion of the Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2 by Gospel Musicians (cf. Dyno-My-Piano), added with some MKS-20 type of keyboard sounds (UVI Key Suite Digital) and the Scarbee EP-88S. Then there is the iconic Marcato Strings sound from the UVI Emulation II+ (cf. Emu Emulator). The drums are the Native Instruments Abbey Road 1980s Drummer (with a layered Linndrum snare and a layered 808 type of kick). Then I have a Moog type of bass sound (UVI Ultramini, Arturia Mini-V) and the pad/horns from the UVI "PX memories" (cf. Memorymoog). 

The wonderful lead sound is a lead sound from the DX7 (Syn-Lead1h, converted to Yamaha Montage by Hideo Harada, Kamoda Music).
