It seems like today it is pretty hard to get lost. We have endless gadgets which help us navigate through reality, but on the way we neglect our natural senses, the ones that used to guide our path in the past. However, every once in a while it is good to get lost, in order to activate our animal instincts, and be reminded that we are, in fact, animals.

Optiloop aka George Kopelakis and Agamemnon Aspirtakis, from Heraklion of Creta in Greece, came to help you discover those inner hibernating senses. They started their project in 2006, in order to unlock psychedelic stories from the dark realms of oblivion.

Nature can summon various dangers, for this reason hearing had to be refined and tuned to recognise whatever lied in the wilderness. It is not a question of Leon vs. Scorpion, the species does not matter, the only thing that matters is survival. Because if a Target Destination is spotted, it will be hard to create a diversion, however, if you will be creative and brave enough, you might just have a chance. Are you?


Target Destination

01. Optiloop - Leon vs. Scorpion

In the last decade Berlin became a magnetic force of culture. With an enormous appeal to artists from all areas of expertise including music, design, architecture, theatre, dance and everything that helps the evolution of imagination and creativity. This is why it should come to no surprise that it is the birth place of both Iono Music and its founder - Matthias Sperlich.

Like many other labels, Iono Music was born in order to give its founder, Cubixx aka Matthias Sperlich, the freedom he needed to release his first creation as Koaxkaos – "Evolutyon". After he met Murus in 2003 at a Psytrance festival, they started working together for several years, and so Iono Music was established in 2005. Unlike many other labels, which are affected by fashion, hype and commercial factors, Iono Music has been motivated by the radiation that the music transmits and the way the body reacts to it. If the music changes the molecules and atoms into ion then it means it has been ionized*. The Ionization process can only be fully successful if your music is high quality Electronic music. Iono Music's main emphasis is on Progressive Psytrance and yet any Electronic style is accepted as long as it stands out of the others – after all it has to reach the top atmosphere to be an Iono…

Matthias Sperlich was born in 1977 in Berlin, Germany. He has over 15 years of experience behind the decks and has a long time love affair with electronic music. He works as a professional VFX artist for cinema and TV, which allows him to pursue his passion and vision of extraordinary music, while being guided by his perfectionist's standards. Since the beginning Cubixx knew that Iono Music could succeed only if he chooses each artist with extra care, examining every aspect to see if they belong in the Iono family. Thus all the artists and dj's you see in our website were picked one by one, after proving to be not only excellent artists but also great people.

Iono Music never stops to evolve, always being one step ahead with technology and new initiatives it had grown to be an exciting international label. Always on the move, Iono Music promises to give you the top notch music this atmosphere can offer.

*"The Ionosphere is a shell of electrons and electrically charged atoms and molecules that surrounds the Earth, stretching from a height of about 50 km to more than 1000 km. It owes its existence primarily to ultraviolet radiation from the Sun." (Taken from Wikipedia.org)
