Yannis
Mourjopoulos, assistant professor of Electroacoustics at Patras
University and a frequent collaborator of Floros Floridis
and Michalis Siganidis, presents his first work on CD, a selected
number of his compositions, which were used for short-film
soundtracks, TV-films, Ads and video clips, between 1985 and
1995.
Believing that modern technology, used properly, can contribute
to a wider audio-visual perception, in harmony with the atmosphere
of the music, Yannis worked together with painter Christos
Markidis to realize the visual part of the album, so that
it can be read by a PC with a CD-Rom drive, with no need to
load the data on the hard disc of the PC.
The music, perfectly recorded and performed by the composer
himself (Floros Floridis plays only in three of the albums´
tracks), gives emphasis on the creation of a variety of electronic
soundscapes, leading to a pure ambient result, avoiding complications
or ´cheap´ impressions.
The visual remarks made by painter Christos Markidis in the
multimedia part of the CD, put the finishing touch to the
audio part, trying not to ´chase´ the music through
the pictures.
DRAMAMUSIC is a place, where technology with a human face
is congruent to art and Yannis Mourjopoulos´ personal
aesthetics, thus trying to give answers to the inner and sublime
needs of the listener/user. |
