Project Nascence by Nicky Kokkoli
Project Nascence is the beginning of my artistic and creative career.
Eight tracks that have been recorded from March 2022 to March 2024.
This project is a personal attemp to break all the academic, musical and social stereotypes that I have.
A project that talks about Feminicides (Fanatismeni den ime/ No Es Que Quiera Obsesionarme a poem by Pilar Rodríguez Aranda, Translation: Elena Stagkouraki), about the stages of grief (dedicated to the train accident that took place in Greece on February 2023) etc.
Project Nascence is seperated in two different parts, first part is the solo section played by Nicky Kokkoli with saxophone, electronics, vinyls etc while the second part was recorded by a sextet.
