Echoes of the Sea

Echoe sof the Sea

Lover of orchestral film scores and epic music.

I had started making music in the 90s with my Amiga 500 but it wasn't capable (me neither) of producing the sound of a whole orchestra.

The diverse musical expressions in filmscores have a bigger emotional impact than any other genre I can think of. My music is heavily inspired by the great composers around 1980-2000, like John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith, James Horner, Basil Poledouris and Hans Zimmer.

With synthesizers, a whole new world of sound has entered the arena and merges with the orchestra to a fantastic sonic experience.

I try to tell stories and convey emotions in my pieces to take you onto a journey into unknown territory.

We are two both co-composers and arrangers, inspired by exhaustives sources (jazz, rock, classic...)

Is Time a relative realm, or does it exist as unique, static & monolithic, and the things and beings pass in an illusory manner while it does not change at all ?
Who can say that time exists in any way other than intangible ? If this exists, can it be judging or helping in any other way than philosophically ....................................................
real music half composed with mouse, keyboard, mind and heart (No generative AI involved) and half played with my hands, in the case of keyboards and some synths.

Pianiste et compositeur invitant les auditeurs à un voyage à travers des paysages sonores imaginaires.

Welcome to my page.

I appreciate all the comments, likes and repost that you leave me in my compositions.

I make music for fun and to get away. I have multiple styles, although my biggest influence is in electronic music.

I am self taught and learned with Music Studio 2 on a first generation ipad 11 years ago. I have never composed before. Perform more than 80 songs a year for the first 6-7 years to learn about the program and develop creativity to compose. I have listened to different types of music throughout my life and maybe that has helped me.

I still compose only with an ipad (last generation), but I no longer work only with native MS2 instruments since I have expanded my instrument library with programs such as Audiokit, Digital D1, kv331, Sunrizer, etc ...

My music can be downloaded, but not used for commercial purposes (my authorization is required).

During the last two years I have encouraged myself to collaborate with professional or self-taught musicians like me. Are these:

Annie Smart

Dan DT

Loue ghazi

Lukowig

Mirjam Keijnemans

Nathalie B20

Subzero

Vicent

Winkanwoo

Wypernet

Only Piano (Chris Matsikoudis) is a contemporary pianist / composer from Athens, Greece. His childhood influences were Classical composers and later listening to a lot of genres mainly Pop to Hard Rock, AOR, Progressive Metal and film scores. He early on fell in love with the piano sound through the works of Chopin, Lizst, Beethoven, Rachmaninoff and later listening to pianists like Yanni, Giorgos Hatzinasios, Jordan Rudess, Keith Jarrett, David Foster, Aziza Mustafa Zadeh, Stavros Lantsias, Chick Corea, Glenn Gould, Bill Evans and Brad Mehldau. All of these pianists and later mentors shaped the Only Piano sound. He started as a self-taught musician at the age of 11 with a PC-1000 Portatone Yamaha Keyboard. He later joined the National Conservatory, starting classical piano but this path wasn’t for him. He briefly studied with notable teachers like Julie Troussa (Piano Technique) at Skalkota Conservatory, Manolis Papasifakis (Jazz Hanon) at NTUA musical dpt and Alkis Tsertsetis (Classical Theory and Harmony) at National Conservatory.  Later on he was devoted to Jazz, studying Modal Jazz Harmony with legendary Jazz pianist Marcos Alexiou and Jazz Technique and Standards with the famous Jazz pianist George Psychogios. Meanwhile he was performing live at several Venues in Greece with a variety of Greek bands: Acrobates (Greek Rock), Intravenous (Ethnic Jazz), Big Trouble (R&B) and gave sporadically some solo concerts. In 2011 he co-established the Fusion band "Nagare" which produced an LP with the homonym title in 2018. The band is still active and preparing their second album. Only Piano continues his musical research through various publications and online courses and he has already produced 3 LP’s: In the Loop (2021), Love (2022), Maturity (2023)
