About Me |
|
| Zen Garden were born in 2007 by core- creators Stefanos Tortopoglou (Music: Synths, Guitars, Samplers, Programming) and Roxani Garefalaki (Vocals, Lyrics, Performance: stilts, silks) both of whom are on an ongoing journey through the corridors of music. Their music ranges from electracoustic ambient to tribal trance. Natural musical instruments, electronic sound and vocals (raging from pop-like melodies to atmospheric lyrical song in both English and greek lyrics), are seamlessly interwoven while in their live concerts there is a rich blend of live music and (DanceTheatre-like) performance surrounded by visual art environment. It is a circle of people in an interactive creation, which integrates: Yiannis Smeros and Yianna Medvedeva in Aerial Acrobatics- silks, Physical Theatre- stilts Spyros Bell, member of Visual Vibe Project in live Visual environment, Live Percussionists: Manolis Kambouris, Panagiotis Voulgouridis, Giorgos Koukoulis, and Ioanna Gioni in Didgeridoo vibes. They have participated in live acts around Greece, dressed with music the production “Deva” of the DanceTheatre Synergion of Arts and of the DanceTheatre Fygein Adynaton “Facts and Faculties”, while on the other hand they have taken part in the music orchestration of artmentary Chania/Eco. They have had live performances in Club Mansion, Soul Club, were the opening act in Juno Reactor Live in Athens (19.4.08), the opening act of international Aurora Festival (Kavala 25.8.08) and performed for the opening of Olympia Mall (Trikala 25.10.08). With their project “Feeling in Process” they explore and look into the creation of an experience which travels through musical landscapes, marrying electronic with pagan sound, as well as the magic of live Visual Art and Movement.AURORA FESTIVAL openinglive with Juno Reactorzen garden at home.. | |
