Review by Cempaka Indrapuspa

Elfish Tapes is an album that showcases the unique and innovative sound of ION. The album features a variety of electronic and acoustic instruments, creating a captivating and otherworldly atmosphere.

The tracks on Elfish Tapes are a blend of ambient, experimental, and downtempo music, with each song offering a distinct and captivating experience. The use of field recordings and natural sounds adds an element of depth and texture to the music, creating an immersive and engaging listening experience.

The album's standout tracks include "Moonstone," which features haunting vocals and a hypnotic beat, and "Forest Dreams," which combines the sounds of nature with intricate electronic production to create a dreamlike atmosphere.

About ION

Solo project of Giannis Papaioannou from 1996 onwards. IONs music was always characterized from its underground repetitive minimalism. Influenced by the techno scene, and especially from record companies such as Basic Channel, ION was probably one of the first Greek artists to appear at live performances with his portable computer alone. 2005 signalled his return to the techno scene.
