June 22nd 2018

Release

Have you the new record by Alexis Georopolous (Aka Arp) ?

Producer and multi-instrumentalist Alexis Georgopolous, who records as Arp... produces music that exists beyond genre, in the liminal spaces between. On the new track 'Nzuku', Georgopolous skirts lines between Ambient music, Cosmic Jazz, Disco production, and Pop songwriting// emerging with a sound that is uniquely his own. A pulsating marimba creates anchor for melodic explorations on the synthesizer as live drums generate ecstatic forward motion. This track is taken from the upcoming album 'Zebra', his full-length debut for Mexican Summer which is out on June the 22nd.

You can Pre-order 'Zebra' from this link: http://smarturl.it/ArpZebra. A mutant offspring of diverse stylings, unlikely convergences, unfixed constellations 'Zebra'. Alexis Georgopoulos’ (Aka Arp) fifth full length album, is a post everything symbiosis of ancient to future psychotropics, emphasizing points of connectivity between far flung traditions. 'Zebra' is as naturalistic as it is alien, disrupting outdated boundaries between musical traditions, hierarchies and genre politics. Using forward looking production techniques and an idiosyncratic instrumental palette... analog synthesizers, double bass, Fender Rhodes, Electronic and acoustic drums, flute, vintage harmonizers and tape delay.

Georgopoulos proposes a vast, shimmering prospect, floralizing an array of styles and smiles Fourth World tremors, vibey Cosmic Jazz, 80's Japanese production, floating kosmische drum atmospherics. Emphasizing 'points of connectivity' in a time when reactive and fractious isolationism threaten in divisive ways, 'Zebra' is the sound of interaction. 'Zebra' seeks something beyond definition of singularity perspective and division. It is constructive instead of flippant: ecstatic instead of wallowing; clear eyed instead of opiated, romantic instead of cynical. Like the 'Zebra', Georgopoulos’ latest album revels in contrast / duality - Naturalistic + alien. Urban + rural. Calm + unsettling. Lucid + mysterious. Bold simplicity + fiendish complexity. The result is a portal to a more curious World that compels repeat visits.
