Tokyo+1

"Tokyo + 1" was recorded in Japan and Greece. As we thoroughly listen to its nine tracks, we find ourselves in a certain maze of discouragement, which is derived from incapacity of finding the similarity and comparison. Shortly this illogical puzzle vanishes along with the walls and geographical borders and we find ourselves in the middle of the unknown culture and location. This virtual traveling becomes in fact most factual in the next moment, bringing our entire body into motion, moving through the places where the sounds have been initially captured. But even after this point, the sounds accelerate our expectations, by their earsplitting level, unnaturally sharpening the picture and our motion through it. The usually blurred environment around us becomes concrete as never before, converting into close-up and giving each infinitesimal detail exceptional meaning. This is a concrete tour that initiates in Tokyo and finishes in Ikaria, where the music also ends, and motion and sound around us return to their usual level of display and perception with one definite note: we can lose ourselves and repeat this tour over and over again.
