Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded in a hotel room in Rome utilizing advanced mobile synthesizers, the Greek composer's urban concept album sonically illustrates a day in the life of a modern metropolis. The cinematic, highly atmospheric electronic suites blend his signature romantic melodies with subtle field recordings of city noise.
