Theodore fuses electronic + classical compositions on 'Towards? (for what is to come)'


Fusing classical composition with electronic elements to create beautiful, atmospheric songs, multi-instrumentalist Theodore has become renowned for his live performances as well as his cinematic soundscape.

Schooling in piano and traditional Greek music equipped the Athens-based artist his musical tools, and he followed a professional music career in London where he studied Music Composition in 2011.
He has written film scores, notably a new score for Buster Keaton’s classic silent comedy of 1928, The Cameraman, which he performed alongside his band at the Temple of Zeus in Athens.

His wide array of influences include Pink Floyd, Sigur Ros, Nils Frahm, Arcade Fire and Max Richter, and it is this wide sonic palette, as well as his multi-instrumental talent that contributes to his rich compositions. His latest single ‘Towards? (for what is to come)’ is slated for release on March 2nd via United We Fly. Described as a "sonic stream of consciousness," ‘Towards? (for what is to come)’ is deep and moody auditory masterpiece, showcasing Theodore's technical skills from ethereal, to melancholic, to classical, to post rock.

Speaking of the single Theodore says “Towards? (for what is to come) is going to be the first song of my upcoming album. This is the initial question I will be exploring throughout the album. It is about the two different sides of one’s personality; the conscious and the magical one and inspired by the battle between them.”
