For this project, the process was started in Amsterdam. That means that the core-idea project came from https://soundcloud.com/igor-iofe-1 ! Very enjoyable process because my partner has great will to create new material and is also an efficient cooperator that accepts different perspectives, readjust and reconstructs details with the final result as our final goal.

About this composition: One of my favourite parts and maybe the best on the crescendo and breathing has a lot of common elements with the first one but this version is specialized on core base trumpet notes. evolution and final crescendos.

About this composition: The last and fourth Improvisation is the one that took me a lot more time than the others to finish. I get struggled a lot about the complexities that have but everything worked perfectly and I felt relieved after the record button stopped and I knew that I finished all this process.

Imperfect//Monologs III [by the ''Imperfect//Monologs'' EP |Piano: Thomas Nakas|Trumpet: Igor Iofe]

On the 88th day of the year, as we celebrate the 88 keys of a piano, musicians and pianists from around the globe come together to honor one of the most beloved instruments in history. Join us in celebrating #PianoDay2022 and enjoy my composition as a special gift for this occasion.

As I crafted this track, I drew inspiration from Greek composers such as Lasdias, Reboutsika, and Karaindrou. Their unique approaches to music and melody have always fascinated me, and I sought to pay tribute to their influence through this composition. May this piece bring joy and harmony to all who listen!

One Fall After Another - Lament  in G# minor[ March EP 2022 by Thomas Nakas | Piano&Violin ]

Franz Schubert - Piano Trio In E Flat Op 100 (Second Movement)

The works of Toru Takemitsu and Joe Hisaishi have been a profound inspiration for me. Their compositions reflect a beautiful synthesis of Western harmonies and Japanese cultural influences, resulting in pieces that possess ample breathing space and impactful gaps between phrases. As a musician, I find their use of tempo and pauses to be particularly compelling. It's truly remarkable how they infuse their music with a unique blend of emotion and technique. I'm grateful for the opportunity to pay homage to these great composers in my own work.

'' One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.''
 
1984, Goerge Orwell 


About this Project: I was inspired by the movie's scene of the famous "1984" by Goerge Orwel.

Walking on the Same Path[ Ordered Art Cover by Vassiliki Kouremenou ]

  The title "Radiant Soul Transcends" inspired a half drum and bass hip-hop beat that captures the essence of the human spirit. 
The composition starts with an upbeat rhythm, symbolizing the energy and vibrancy of life. As the music progresses, 
it slows down into a more contemplative hip-hop beat, symbolizing the introspection and self-discovery that comes with age.
.................................................................................................
   The inspiration for this piece also draws from the Angel scene in Alejandro Jodorowsky's movie, "Endless Poetry." 
The scene speaks of how the pure light of the human soul remains as one grows older. 
The music captures this sentiment with a transition from the outside of a rainbow hole, symbolizing the chaos and confusion of life, to the inside, where the human soul can be found shining bright. 
The final transition takes the listener outside of the rainbow hole and into a new dimension, representing the transcendence of the human spirit.

Soul's Radiance Transcends Chromatic Abyss.

Radiant Soul Transcends

In the mesmerizing symphony of existence, the melodies of our story unfold. Soar, the enigmatic traveler, emerges from the depths of a rainbow hole, a portal of swirling hues that signifies the chaotic tapestry of life's trials and tribulations. As he steps into the interior, a luminous realm of ethereal beauty, his gaze is met by an ever-burning spark deep within his being—a radiant soul yearning to illuminate the unknown.

Yet, destiny weaves its enigmatic threads, and Soar finds himself transcending beyond the limits of familiarity. In this new dimension, his essence entwined with the cosmic fabric, he discovers his form transformed. With a single eye, a unique vessel for perception, he navigates the vast expanse of this enigmatic universe. His face, once a reflection of identity, has now dissolved into the infinite abyss, leaving behind an eternal mystery.

In this boundless realm, Soar becomes both an explorer and a conduit of emotions. Every sight, sound, and touch reverberates through his ethereal existence, connecting him to the grand tapestry of life. Despite the loss of all that was cherished, Soar revels in the precious gift of discovery. He walks the uncharted paths of his new self, embracing the fleeting moments of joy, vulnerability, and awe.

Through the symphony of sensations, Soar unravels the profound truth that lies within the measure of a being is not confined to physicality or remnants of the past, but in the boundless spirit that resides within. And as he journeys further, drawn by the magnetic pull of the unknown, he carries within him the echo of a forgotten memory—an indescribable whisper that promises a revelation, a revelation that may redefine the very essence of his existence.

Soar, in this metamorphosis of forgotten identity and newfound wonder, dances with the universe, an embodiment of both humility and resilience. In his soul's yearning for purpose and connection, he embodies the human spirit's capacity to embrace the beauty of the unknown and, with every step, to unravel the tapestry of existence itself.
