It's all about living out of the box...where music sounds like different directions have been unified under the veil of a tripping mood. From downbeat to breakbeat, with tones of post electronic, jazz, rap, funk and chill.
Ekos Quartet Biography
It was when ForTune gave some music experimentations on classical and hip-hop sounds to The Ant, and he immediately proposed him to form "something". After working together on music and lyrics during 2004, Stelx joined them as a guitarist in 2005. Not much later than that, the three of them found Eskimint, who had been working on trip-hop vocals by herself. They formed Ekos Quartet in November 2005, and recorded their first song, “Fortune’s lake”, in January 2006 and they performed live for the first time in December 06. During 2007, the band gave many live concerts and kept producing new tracks. This opportunity gave them the courage and the inspiration to start expanding their musical horizons, mixing downbeat, electronica, funk, hip-hop, jazz breaks, post rock, classical samples and ambient sounds, all based on a tripping background and mood. Their first release was the song “Free with you” in “Concealed Truth” compilation by Andrianos Papadeas (June 07). They also released 4 tracks in the multi-ep part of the compilation "City Campers" a bit later. In 2008, they have appeared as a quintet in some concerts, after the addititon of George PapaG (bass), while Mandragora has been helping the band on their live sound. They also completed the recordings of 13 songs in "Silicon" studio. s_fx and Ekos have mixed their debut album, "In a dream full of charm", while Bob Katz did the mastering. Ekos Quartet had been working on this album until late 2008 (about to be released in 2009). Their aim is to achieve evolution, improvisation, experimentation and originality through their musical journey, during which they can express their emotions and talk about a world that can be more beautiful and charming, rather than controllable.
