INTERVIEW
Why this name?
Something original that would only relate to my music on the internet.
Do you play live?
Yes i do! Anywhere! Yes! A lot!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's the perfect way for me to reach my audience and I don't believe in DRM or other means to limit distribution.
Adrenaline?
“Music makes us feel invigorated. It motivates and drives us. It also angers and saddens us. It's really another sense by which we experience the world around us.†Makrolon understands fully how music reflects life – both the good and the bad, hence the invigoration stirring in a context of shadows – and brings this understanding through music to help communicate all this to the listener.
Inspiration?
For fueling its Electro-rock fusions, Makrolon turns to life in all its facets and the reflector of life – music itself, of all styles. In Makrolon's view, “Music is another sense to experience the world; thus, life and music are intimately intertwined.†By casting a wide net and bringing it to bear with utmost focus, Makrolon crafts lean, mean compositions that bring a magnifying glass to life's complexities and do so with keen listener appeal.
Accomplishments?
Makrolon unleashed in 1998 its self-titled debut EP upon an audience of listeners that quickly made it a success. Following the success of “Makrolonâ€, the following year saw the release of the band's full-length effort, “Wintersunâ€. It brought significant recognition to the artist, which saw itself rise to prominence in charts at sites such as Acidplanet
Anything else...?
While the music is difficult to classify, Makrolon reaches a worldwide audience with the mixture of trance, club and goa influenced music. Despite the vast number of electronic artists of today, the sound of Makrolon carries unique characteristics that daily attract more listeners. Mainly releasing his music on the Internet has enabled tens of thousands of listeners from around the world to enjoy the hypnotic moods created in his compositions.The music can appropriately be described as lavishly filtered layers of euphoric pads, samples and effects with a deep genuine beat. While the majority of earlier releases were heavily genre focused and purely instrumental - new elements are being introduced as Makrolon progresses.
"Makrolon music touches your spirit and soul in ways that you won't believe are possible. You will be treated to a fantastic, beautifully articulated, musical experience far beyond your expectations."
"Makrolon is a miracle maker on the piano. He incorporates every human emotion there is into his music. When he plays, he plays with so much emotion, it almost makes you dizzy. The man is purely amazing.."
"Awesome! Simply brilliant, the sort of music that stops you dead and demands that you listen. Its music that soothes, relaxes and inspires all at the same time - whether you are playing or listening. What a talent this man is."
