An album consisting of 27 Experimental compositions inspired by Astronomy and artists like Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, and Cluster.
Athens, Greece – Experimental musician and author Billy Yfantis releases his new digital album “Birds in Space.” The album consists of 27 experimental tracks that explore space from a musical and conceptual perspective. The concept refers to a flock of birds that travel in space among various space objects (clusters and galaxies). The album’s song titles refer to real space objects that exist in the science of astronomy. Trivia: The “Birds in Space” track is a 30 minute psychedelic composition that includes real bird sounds, recorded somewhere in Athens, Greece!
Billy Yfantis commented on the release: “In a world full of music stars, if you really want to find the next real star, then just switch off the TV, pick up the telescope, and look up to the sky, where the real space objects exist and surround our planet. Astronomy and music, according to Plato, are “twinned” disciplines of sensuous perception: astronomy is for the eyes, and music is for the ears. The goal of this album is to feed your eyes and ears with sensuous food for thought.”
Billy is currently working on his next album, with a scheduled release in late 2023. Stay tuned for more information!
