Notes

Live Electronic Music is a stand alone, iterative composition housed in a bespoke hand crafted polycarbonate box. This artist multiple is the first of its kind, utilising a specially designed software by Polychronopoulos with the help and ideas of Fotis Kontomichos. It is a universe, collected and housed in a tiny yet endlessly deep object. Each ‘playback’ is different to the one before it. The piece reveals itself endlessly, exposing new dimensions and dynamics drawn from a table of acoustic elements.

Essentially then, no matter how many times this piece plays, no two versions can ever be identical. This is a piece exploring evolution and iteration. A chance to experience and re-experience a sound world that is living and shifting moment to moment, no matter how subtle those shifts might beThis magic box from Spyros Polychronopoulos arguably just achieved one of modern composition’s smartest goals; to make a piece of music which will, in effect, play infinitely without direct repetition; using electronic means to create the effect of a musician trapped within a box of persistently morphing timbral and temporal paradoxes.

The sounds are indescribable; constantly shifting thru fragments of classical piano, field recordings, glowing drone contours, haptic grains and fizzing scree in a way that’s perhaps best compared in synaesthetic sound/visual terms to looking out of a train window while travelling at speed and trying to tune a shortwave radio.

We’ve seen a lot of innovative releases over the years, but in terms of both its execution and the amorphous abundance of sounds contained within, Live Electronic Music is easily one of the most fascinating objects we’ve had the pleasure to stock, garnering the kind of interest we can only compare to the initial Buddha Machine frenzy a decade ago.
