Elektrolux presents the phantastic Chill Out Album "Silk" by George
Pallikaris aka G-Pal. George Pallikaris originally hails from
Thessaloniki, one of the largest cities in northern Greece. George
was first introduced to music at a very young age. By the age of 4
he was already training to play the piano. Although he was studying
the likes of Jean Michelle Jarre and Vangelis he was also composing
music on his first synthesizer. Once George reached his teen years,
he got very involved with early dance music buying house and techno
records and playing them for his friends. After graduating from
high school, G. Pal stepped in a direction away from music for
about 4 years. So instead, he chose to pursue the subject of
physics. While in the University, G. Pal slowly drifted back to his
true passion, musical production. If it wasnÆt for this almost
complete musical void G. Pal may never have gotten so determined to
earn a living producing music.
After a few years of developing his skills composing and producing
tracks, G. Pal decided to move to New York City so that he could
pursue a degree in music technology. According to G. Pal, he would
have stayed in Greece, but not one of the schools offered a degree
similar to the one available through NYU. And frankly, it is tough
to argue with GeorgeÆs thinking. After all, there canÆt be a better
time to get a degree in music technology. This educational
experience, combined with his own interest in studio gear, hardware
and software puts George way ahead of your average dance music
producer. While attending NYU, George started shopping his tracks
around the end of 1997. About a year later, a decent amount of
respectable labels were knocking on his door. Soon after his first
commercial record release, a double pack on the UK's prestigious
Low Pressings label, he started preparing material for labels. On a
cold night in November at Mike Bryant's Friday night party, G. pal
brought a demo down for Plastic City A+R Rick Salzer. "As soon as
G.Pal gave me the demo, I told him I owned his first record and was
still playing it. " After some small discussions, both parties
agreed that G. Pal should join the UCMG NY artist roster. Aside
from multiple EPs coming on both the Plastic City and FiJi labels,
G.Pal will also be doing a few remix projects as well as work on
his full-length studio album for Plastic City.
With his full length Chill Out Album on Elektrolux he surprises
with laid back and mellow Tracks that reflect a deep and positive
warm mediteranean vibe with complex structures. "Silk" is the
perfect Soudtrack for almost any occasion, a Summerday at the
Beach, in the Garden or even for a barbecue. Especially at Night
under the Stars, the Tracks will unfold their magic spirit ... This
is for the Moment.
