Paris Music Corp. releases eponymous LP

Texas-based electronic music artist Paris Music Corp, the moniker of experimental and ambient composer John Andrew Paris, has released a self-titled album with 14 tracks on offer. This is his first record in half a decade:

“I wrote, recorded, and mastered this album in my home studio in Austin. While I have since relocated to Brownsville, this IS an Austin, TX record. Most of it was conceived during the pandemic. Some pieces pre-dated the pandemic in an embryonic state, but 2020 is when I got down to the business of getting those early pieces completed and the new ones written. My inspiration for these pieces is that you never really know when you will pass on so you best be doing your greatest now,” says John Andrew Paris.

Cinematic and ethereal, Paris Music Corp. music is sometimes ambient and sometimes spacey instrumental electronica. Often with elements of 80’s darkwave and ambient soundscapes, his trademark sound includes heavily processed guitar and bass instruments locked into layered loops and further manipulated using software.Also employing live hand percussion, these dense soundscapes take the listener on a sonic journey to otherworldly places.

Paris Music Corp.’s music is influenced by such artists as Mick Karn, Pink Floyd, Gary Numan, Tim Hecker, Casino Versus Japan and Miles Davis.

The Paris Music Corp. album is available now everywhere digitally, including Apple Music and Spotify. It can also be ordered directly from the artist via Bandcamp.
