Iasos is born in 1947 in Greece, but his family moved to the USA in 1951. He is one of the most intriguing and innovative composers linked with the developement of the new age musical trend in California. Actually, he is one of its forerunners, since from 1967, he started to imagine a new kind of music, "paradise music". He was then a student at Cornell University, and he graduated in anthropology in 1968.
Angelic Music was released in 1978 as a tape. I bought it in the early 80's and it was at the top of my personal playlist for a long time. One can be interested or not in Iasos spiritual and new age discourse and concepts. I was not... But the music was really innovative and inventive, there was such a unique way to manipulate acoustic and electronic sounds, to play with tape recorders speed, with reverse playing of tapes, with various reverb and echoes treatment...
Iasos' music is very floating and ethereal, it is wide and deep as the sky... Listening to it is a unique experience...
Angelic Music offers two long tracks, "The Angels of Comfort" and "Angel Play".
The CD release added a new dimension to this already multi-dimensional music...
If you like this music, you should support Iasos and buy Elixir (number 2 in my Iasos playlist).
Realms of Light and Essence of Spring could be your next steps to reach the new dimensions explored by this unique musician...
Relax, forget anything else, and enjoy the music !
