ZENOPHON: Mark Jenkins

Ever wondered what the modern Tangerine Dream around the “Raum” period would sound like with a really world-class, Academy or Grammy award-winning singer like Miley Cyrus, Billie Eilish or even Enya?

Throw in touches of Vangelis and John Carpenter and that’s what you have with ZENOPHON, the new duo of synthesist MARK JENKINS and multi-lingual singer/violinist ANOUSHKA IVANOVA.

The duo’s epic 72-minute debut CD “Galactic Pulse” spans enormous TD Sessions-like pieces such as “Echoes In Silence” and “New Catalunya” running over 13 minutes each, to tremendous up-tempo techno-pop anthems like “Galactic Pulse 2” and “Cosmic Wanderer”.

You’ll hear the sounds of Moog, PPG, Prophet, Mellotron and other massive synths alongside expressive electric violin and driving electronic percussion. If you like Tangerine Dream’s “Cyclone” and “Tyger” or enjoy John Carpenter movie soundtracks, Vangelis and Jean-Michel Jarre, prepare to fall in love with ZENOPHON…

The next two Zenophon albums are already in preparation.
