About Me

Hello everybody!!!!My name is Aris Markogiannakis, i was born in Athens and studied interior architecture in the technological institute of Athens. since i finished school i started playing electric guitar and taking lessons. Some months later i started playing in various local bands and recording the first demos. During this period i spent some time of learning by myself some things and methods about recording audio engineering and music production. On the year 2003 I started playing in a band where i have suggested the name ''Art Of Simplicity'' I had to left to Milan to continue my studies in industrial design for 2 years knowing that the group was waiting for me to continue what we had left behind all together. We continued playing and recorded one promo on 2005 and one year later we had finished our first full lenght album ''caught in this iless storm''. Some live shows took place, and our promo cd started having good comments in the various magazines and webzines (demo of the month Dec. on Metal Hammer Greece). That was a good force to take it more seriously and starting recording and finishing our debut album. With the help of some members of the band we managed to make the production by ourselves in my room!! (sounds strange ...:)) On the summer of 2006 we signed with burning star records that gave us the opportunity to release this cd in the whole world! Personal reasons made me left the group a few days ago after the first festival of our record label. I had to be present at this live show because we just have lost 3 shows because of the car accident of our drummer. Now i will surely continue my music career with something i wish to stay!!!I wish a good luck to my ex-group Art of Simplicity. REMEMBER: ''EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO STAY ...STAYS''Right now i started a new band with my ex-guitar teacher and friend of mine Panagiotis who was the guitar player of one of the most progressive metal bands in Greece , Guardian Angel! The name of the new band is : "Fractal Veil" and of course its progressive and we are preparing our first songs that soon will be upload in our myspace profile!a
