EL FLOWIOUS DEBUT CD “HERE FOR A REASON” AVAILABLE FOR SALE AND DOWNLOAD ON iTunes and cdbaby
El Flowious’ music can be described as Yanni with an attitude. A mix of Ethnic World, Progressive, New Age, and Electronica, El Flowious ties these genres together in a way that is familiar yet fresh at the same time. Songs like “Under the Eastern Sky”, and “The World Awaits” take the listener back in time to ancient Asia, then gently blends into modern form. The house pounding pulse of “CRS” will slap you in the face, while “Reality Grooves” sets you into upbeat electronica chill mode. From the orchestrated progressive rock CD opener “A Question of Reason” to the peaceful piano of “The Kindness of Stranger”, this album covers a lot of musical ground.
El Flowious is also dedicating 2/3 of his profits from CD and download sales to charitable causes for children. “Here For A Reason is so much more than just tracks of my music. It is part of a realization that I and everyone else on this planet are here to do something. I believe that not only am I here to compose and perform music, but to make a difference in the world. I am choosing to make a difference by donating tow-thirds of all profits from the sale of this CD (and Downloads) to three charities that help children. It is my beliefe that if we help the children of the world today, tomorrow will be brighter for everyone.” See elflowious.com/hereforareason for more info.
El Flowious had a childhood dream. It went like this– mom would drive down our street in Akron, Ohio. She would be all smiles and waves as neighbors walk onto their lawn to catch sight of him, the four-foot tall spectacle perched on the car roof. He would stamp his foot to the beat and rip on his guitar. Music would flow steadily from his soul to the strings and people would applaud from the street below him.
Eventually he outgrew this boyish fantasy and traded the car-roof stage for something practical, an electronic studio. He received vigorous enthusiasm for his composition in “Poetic Kill,” a Kent State University film that won a 1st place Mertl Award. He has written lyrics for The Woman in the Room and supplied music for a GoDaddy.com commercial contest. His most interesting endeavor was to create a musical rendition of California’s prop 8 debate in a podcast for Left Hook, Right Jab. His willingness to tackle the most absurd projects demonstrates an ability to make music of anything.
El Flowious now lives in Springfield, Oregon, where the perfect balance of city and nature fuels the inner-peace that emerges in his music. His best pieces not only please the ear, they awaken the senses and stir emotions. It’s not just good music, it is transformative. He is gearing up to release new music that will bring him closer to becoming one of the most sought after composers for cinema and new-age media. Electronica, Ambient, Chill, World Fusion, Rock, Metal, Groove Funk, and Progressive are his focus, but there is no style he will not explore. His mantra is, it’s all music and it’s all beautiful.
