Precious Time by Sakis Gouzonis is now available via his official website.
The new album contains ten original electronic and cinematic music tracks.
Enjoy.

A 23-minute video of my music for mid-size jazz ensemble has been added to the Vimeo section of my Mixposure profile. Six of my originals  are featured. Think of it as a virtual concert. As you listen to the music imagine that you are in an audience listening to a performance by a live band. 

Note: The video description has detailed information about each piece.    

A digital album of my original tangos has been released at Bandcamp. 

I  am deeply attracted to tango nuevo and  Astor Piazzolla 's  music. My tangos are written in a personal style and are not intended to be like conventional ballroom tango music. They draw upon jazz and at times have a touch of contemporary classical. In a curious way, several musician friends have told me that they hear a  Frank Zappa  influence in some of my tangos. I suspect that is due to the humor that runs through much of my music. 

The 7-track album is $7. The music can be streamed (with the free Bandcamp app) or downloaded. As another option, individual recordings are $1 per track. Purchases help to fund new recordings of my originals.

My brand new album ARIA is now available!

It's a mixture of influence from power metal, glam metal, punk, folk and various symphonic elements.  It was written intentionally to feel like the experience felt during the journey of an epic Japanese-style RPG.

If you are a radio host or reviewer and would like a full album copy for review/airplay, please send me a direct message and I'll get you a copy!

Hi folks!

I've done another Steely Dan Cover. I can't help myself, it's too much fun!

It's really not finished yet, the mix is really rough (and so are my vocals in places, yikes!)

Anyway, here 'tis:

Daddy Don't Live In That New York City (No More)

There's kind of a story within the recording of this song. The guitar I used I bought sight unseen from Amazon for $140 brand new in the box. I already had a set of Seymour Duncan pickups laying around so...

I'm telling you, this guitar sings. It's one of those magical marriages of wood and pickups that somehow goes WAY above the sum of it's parts.

My band-mates call it "The Unicorn", because things like that only exist in myths, right? 

Also: The main guitar part on the original recording was done by Larry Carlton, one of the G.O.A.T.'s. My apologies Larry.

My new single "Encephalon" is now available!  Check my audio tab for more info
