I am proud to announce the complete line-up and some studio report of my ’Where Purgatory Ends’ exhibition’s soundtrack. First of all, I want to name all the artists involved in this project:
Costin Chioreanu – guitar, piano, fx
Rune Eriksen – guitar, fx, percussion, piano
Andrei Ionut – bass
Tudor Diaconescu – violin
A huge thanx for Marius Costache, the one who did all the violin recordings. And of course I want to thank also to all these brave artists involved in the WPE project.
As a studio report update, we just finished one song. The other songs are already in progress, so I think before the grand premiere of WPE I will gladly make another update, with the final details.
Musically speaking, ’Where Purgatory Ends’ means contrast between light and darkness and a huge evolution for me in terms of vision and expression.
The fact that I’m playing along on this album with the best guitarist I ever known, makes from WPE the highest point that I could reach. Rune Eriksen it’s one of the most influential musicians, with his fabulous skills in reinventing the musical expression of darkness, which actually it is the main brief of ‘Where Purgatory Ends’.
So, only him could take care of that, to move things forward, to another dimension.”
Regarding WPE, Rune Eriksen says:
“When I learned that Costin was planning a virtual exhibition, and were busy at work in composing soundtrack to the great arts he is known for, I immediately offered my assistance to help finalize the songs. Working and thinking ’outside the box’ has always intrigued me, so I was more than happy to collaborate on this instrumental adventure. The sonic journeys that Costin managed to convey is truly of a unique and inspiring character, so I am happy I could partake and add a bit of my crookedness to it also. A trip beyond and below!”
