about

In 2011 I was working for the Greek National Theater's production of Cyrano De Bergerac (dir Nikos Karathanos).
During the last months of the production, I decided to assemble 4 tracks that I had been working on at the time, and gift them to some of my fellow colleagues. The idea was to use the artwork as wrapping paper for 4 brownies, emulating (in a way) what Ragueneau, Cyrano's buddy and zany pastry cook, had to endure in one of the play's most famous scenes:

During a suspiciously intense case of sugar cravings, a mob of poets came knocking on Ragueneau's door, demanding pastry. Freshly out of wrapping paper, Ragueneau's wife had the brilliant idea of using pages torn out of Ragueneau's poetry books instead.That's how my second EP, "Brownie Crumbs" was made. Using a handmade black & white box, and rice paper artwork, the package contained four brownies, which would be baked on the night of a performance.

Hope you enjoy listening to these old, and poorly homemade tracks, which (just like the brownies) were shitty cooking, but made with love.
