01 | Kograe (featuring Arve Henriksen & Ragnhild Tronsmo) |
Ahead of his forthcoming album on Beatservice Records, Aleksander Kostopoulos serves up the first of three new singles. A masterclass in emotive songwriting, 'Kograe' merges earthly tones with explorative electronics. Arve Henriksen's deft trumpet intertwines in a ghostly dance with the cello of Ragnhild Tronsmo Haugland and Kostopoulos' reverberating piano. Gradually the glitching beats join the rhythm as a driving kick guides the journey. The night falls, the tempo drops and the elements disperse back into their electronic ether. |

01 | reneba (featuring Ensemble Noor & Ragnhild Tronsmo) |
Aleksander Kostopoulos has a gift for evoking drama through his music. 'Reneba', the second single from his forthcoming album on Beatservice Records, is no exception - a stunning example of a story told through sound, with feeling centre stage. Blistering yet blissful, Kostopoulos crafts a neo-classically tinged drum and bass dreamscape for this next single. Drawn in by the strings of the Ensemble Noor trio and cellist Ragnhild Tronsmo Haugland, you slip through the spacetime continuum carried by textured basslines and shapeshifting breakbeats. |

01 | Mrtts (featuring Daniel Herskedal, Ensemble Noor & Ragnhild Tronsmo) |
Aleksander Kostopoulos' third and final single before the release of his album on Beatservice Records, comes in the form of 'Mrtts'. It's a n expansive cinematic journey, beginning with the hauntingly beautiful tones of Daniel Herskedal's bass trumpet. A stunning string accompaniment from Ensemble Noor and cellist Ragnhild Tronsmo Haugland dials up the emotion of the opening, unfolding with elegance and poise. Organic meets electronic erupting in a synergy of metallic percussive beats, interstellar synthesis and thundering bass from Kostopoulos. A truly epic voyage. |
