Inspired by the ideals of Spectromorphology and analogue Horrors such as Local58 and Number Stations, Sound of The Chimes was created by the manipulation and editing of the frequency spectrum of wind chimes. The track also delves into the deep underlying mysteries of the world and the structures of different sounds. The track contains all of the frequencies of the recording and produces an analogue horror effect with an eerie jingle and morse-code sounds underneath.

A big thank you to Zoe for spending an hour of her time creating and editing the cover art.

Sound Of The Chimes

Producer: Nicole Din

Open Insight (2024) is a musical continuation of 'Sound of The Chimes' (2023). Similarly to 'Sound of The Chimes', the track consists of recordings being spliced and edited. This track is made up of sounds such as bird calls; a keyboard tapping; whistling and humming. These recordings were then manipulated by MIDI mapping on Ableton to create spacious and echoing atmospheres. Open Insight is quite abstract in meaning and the meaning can be up to the listener's interpretation.

Kokoras’ sound compositions develop functional classification and matching sound systems written on what he calls Holophonic Musical Texture. As an educator, Kokoras has taught at the Technological and Educational Institute of Crete, and, the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (Greece). Currently, he is Regents Professor of Composition at the University of North Texas and director of the Center for Experimental Music and Intermedia (CEMI).
