cool patterns and arrangement to create lovely sounds

Giannis Gogos is a self-taught musician and composer from Alexandroupolis in northeastern Greece. He began making music back in 2005 before switching artforms to focus on photography in 2008. After over a decade of hiatus, the upheavals of 2020 drew him back to music production again with a new-found vision. Giannis had already been inspired by Ambient and Experimental music, citing Future Sound of London, Aphex Twin’s ‘Selected Ambient Works’ and Trentemøller’s ‘The Last Resort’. Yet since his return to producing Ambient music, he discovered the work of artists such as Taylor Deupree, Dictaphone, Federico Durand and Marcus Fischer. In his own sound, Giannis seamlessly merges analog and digital elements in his compositions, weaving intricate melodies with keyboard, glockenspiel, kalimba and guitars through various delay and reverb pedals. His debut album ‘Roads’ was released in March 2024 on Tasmanian cassette label Perceptual Tapes.

This new album 'Linger' is a testament to tranquillity, characterised by its calm and dream-like aesthetic, imbued with a sense of nostalgia, crafted using cassette recordings and degraded tape loops. These seven delicate soundscapes are formed from an array of organic instruments such as the Kalimba, glockenspiel, and a vintage Yamaha VSS30. 'Linger' embodies a concept of lingering—translating to staying in a place longer than necessary because of reluctance to leave.

Giannis writes “The rustle of leaves, the water flow, a flickering light through the curtain, a warm sunset, clouds clearing from a mountain after a storm; an invitation to a quiet frequency, away from our daily routine. I am losing myself. I am disconnecting from reality. But it is not true. The more I am losing myself, the more I find inner peace. The more I am letting my senses open to my daily impression, the more I connect with my inner truth. I am carrying those moments, holding them tight into to my soul, and I try to convert them into sustaining musical notes.”

Each note, each tone is a reflection of Giannis' endeavor to translate ephemeral moments into timeless musical experiences, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in a quiet frequency far removed from the chaos of daily life. Through 'Linger', Giannis extends a heartfelt invitation to wanderers in search of solace, hoping his music will serve as a vessel for shared moments of contemplation and connection.

« Study N°3 of the Opus 15 » of Joachim Andersen

This is my interpretation of Catherine Christer Hennix's classic drone piece The Electric Harpsichord. Not a duplicate or recreation of the original, but an attempt to honor the essence of the piece as I understand it.

We don't have (to my knowledge) any score or written notes from Hennix herself, but we know from Henry Flynt that she used the North Indian Multani scale, tuned according to Alain Danielou's "Ragas of Northern Indian Music", and this is what I used here. (I refer to it as a scale and not as a raga because it is not used in a way that conforms with raga performance practice, although near the beginning you can hear the canonic ascending and descending forms of the raga.)

Hennix performed this piece on a retuned Yamaha electronic keyboard using the harpsichord setting, accompanied by sine wave generators. I am using two Meng Qi Wingie2 resonators (with custom firmware for the tuning), one for the bass and melodic figurations and one to resonate similarly to sympathetic strings. The little 7-note arpeggios/glissandi are implemented using MIDI, but it is all triggered by hand. This recording captures a single session, performed in real time. All of the sounds issue from the two WIngies, except for the underlying sine-wave drone, which is implemented in Csound.

A partial list of the other gear used includes Soma Labs Cosmos looper and Chase Bliss CXM 1978 reverb.

Shinkei (1406-75) was a renowned renga poet and critic, best known for his two-part work "Sasamegoto" (Murmured Conversations). To find out more about this interesting and largely unknown poet-priest, I recommend reading Heart's Flower - The Life and Poetry of Shinkei by Esperanza Ramirez-Christensen.

NOVA ILUSÃO

No rarear dos deuses e dos mitos
Deuses antigos, vós ressuscitais
Sob a forma longínqua de ideais
Aos enganados olhos sempre aflitos.

Do que vós concebeis mais circunscritos,
Desdenhais a alma exterior dos ritos
E o sentimento que os gerou guardais.

Lá para além dos seres, ao profundo
Meditar, surge, grande e impotente
O sentimento da ilusão do mundo.

Os falsos ideais do Aparente
Não o atingem — único final
Neste entenebrecer universal.

Fernando Pessoa

Nova ilusão

"I'm a mellow artist, aging 67. I love and release eclectic music, from post-classical to drone. My fave instrument is the Mellotron."

Così, sinteticamente, di solito mi presento.

In genere compongo musica partendo dal suono delle tastiere, ma il mio vero strumento è il registratore.

O i software di registrazione.

"I was made for loving and making recorded music."

Confido da sempre nel potere evocativo e orfico della musica, nella sua capacità di riconsegnarci a mondi più veri e più giusti, più belli di quelli in cui di solito viviamo.

"Ich bin ein kosmische Kurier"

SoundCloud è la piattaforma musicale che preferisco perché è soprattutto il regno degli amateurs, di quelli che fanno musica per sé e per gli amici .. come quando da ragazzi si condividevano con gli altri le invenzioni e le creazioni .. io sostanzialmente sono rimasto lì e così .. non sempre, ovviamente, ma spesso ci trovo delle cose che valgono altrettanto - se non di più - rispetto a quelle più affermate e conosciute
