Kokan Dimushevski

Short bio

 

Kokan Dimushevski born April 26, 1958 in Skopje – Macedonia, as he likes to refer to himself, be a Macedonian – born pianist turned keyboardist. He is unique among synthesizer players in two respects:

He uses combinations of synthesizers to simulate a one-man orchestra, and he strives to create original, electronically synthesized music that sounds acoustic. Since 1976 he has combined single-voice and a polyphonic (or multi voice) synthesizers to wave a fabric of nearly orchestral richness. The context for Dimushevski multi keyboards accomplishments has been LEB I SOL, a popular fusion band that Dimushevski co founded in 1976 . He tries to stay away from electronic sounds and go for natural sounds, instead. They don’t have to be known natural sounds. In many recordings he made for example, the sound isn’t one that’s known-you wouldn’t recognize it as anything else-but it is acoustic. It sounds like some kind of native instrument.

He doesn’t start out on paper to write music. He composes by improvising the melody and recorded. Then he will put it away of a few days before he start to listening again. After hearing it a dozen times, he improvises out an orchestration. If you’re going to orchestrate with eight-note chords, each voice making its own melody.

His music is very specific-emotionally colored, from pianissimo (ppp) music parts-to strong, fast and fortissimo (fff) expression dynamic fields.

Dimushevski symphonic music readily embraces the tonal and even, according to the needs of the work, the conventionally “beautiful”, he has no compunction about shattering the beauty.

It’s result of many years spent exploring a sound area.

 

Dimushevski explain his sound-worlds music with a new name: Private Music.

OtherPhoto presenta libro:"gris-gris in senegal"di Fabrizio Biaggi

La dimensione mistica è profondamente radicata nella cultura africana. La quotidianità di queste popolazioni è intrisa di sacralità e rimane profondamente legata al culto dell’animismo. Vi trova quindi spazio una dimensione soprannaturale, che nella società occidentale è relegata perlopiù alla sfera della superstizione. Amuleti, oggetti sacri, riti, momenti e sguardi sono catturati nelle immagini di questa pubblicazione.
