era Sta Ori is the pseudonym of greek sound artist and producer, George Kontogiannidis. Professing a futuristic style, his music blends senses from DnB, IDM and bleep. Bursting into the general consciousness back in 2017, time has only seen this promising artist grow with releases on brokntoys, Furthur Electronix and Yellow Machines. He now readies his next EP with us at MUSAR, titled ‘IMMI’. Short for ‘Immigrant’, ‘IMMI’ EP is dedicated to uprooted people. Within, Pera Sta Ori explores an imaginary world in which misery is erased from memory. Projecting into vast expanses, each track forms an echo chamber. From the urgent and frenetic vocals of ´SCATTER 0^’, layered with crunching percussion and swarming bass, to the ambience of ‘Bouncing/Lassitude’ and downtempo quirks of ‘CIN1’, Pera Sta Ori provides a variance of headscapes to slip into. Chilean celestial spark Kamila Govorèin creates her own world on the remix of ‘CIN1’. Jagged percussion ripple and ricochet with nearindustrial inflections. Peppered with openings of etherealism, the samples of the original glide whilst Govorèin keeps things driving with four-to-the- floor punches. !
