DiN32 - Shade by Parallel Worlds
Release date 23rd March 2009

Shade is the studio album follow-up to Obsessive Surrealism (DiN26 - 2007) and
is the fifth CD release by Parallel Worlds (the main musical project of Greek
electronic musician Bakis Sirros).

Parallel Worlds employ a vast arsenal of both vintage and modern analogue
modular synthesisers with extensive use of classic sequencing techniques to
produce a sonic world that combines modern electronica and ambient music styles
with the feel of retro electronic music. His attention to detail is astonishing
and his careful sculpting of sounds and textures produce an organic, ever
evolving atmosphere full of half glimpsed meanings and subdued emotions. The
purely electronic rhythms and beats seem to have a life of their own and
showcase a musician who is a virtuoso with these types of instruments that are
the antithesis of the quick fix pick-a-preset mind set of much of todays
society. Musically he likes to explore various states of mind, no doubt
influenced by his medical background and this adds a tension and darkness to his
compositions that are punctuated by disarmingly simple and wistful melodies.

With Shade Parallel Worlds show a musical maturity and command of sonic
atmospherics that takes the music on a journey, moving through dreams and
shades, aiming for the light.
