Legendary ambient producer Gigi Masin releases new album ‘Calypso’ on Apollo Records in February this year, 34 years after his seminal 1984 EP ‘Wind’ was released.
Calypso is inspired by the mythical Greek island of Ogygia and its alleged real life counterpart Gavdos – also known unofficially as Calypso – a place of extreme beauty, which upon visiting had a profound effect on the musician.
This single from the album gives us a taste of things to come with warm analogue synths mingling with twinling piano melodies – ‘Calypso’ is music of the gods, goddesses and heroes, subliminally capturing all the celestial beauty, awe, romance and adventure of an epic saga.
