He has also created a clever&nbsp;electronic rework of &#8216;Lord of the Dance&#8217; for the Austin Christmas Collection Album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI 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,\u201d says&nbsp;<strong>John Andrew Paris<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere is a certain haunted feeling in some tunes and others just reflect the ambiguity I like in my writing style. It is a body of work I am very proud of. A lot of the ambient works are a result of on the spot improvisation. I am influenced by a lot of jazz musicians\u2019 approach to music.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cinematic and ethereal,&nbsp;Paris Music Corp. music is sometimes ambient and sometimes spacey instrumental electronica. Often with elements&nbsp;of 80\u2019s darkwave and ambient soundscapes, his trademark&nbsp;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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paris Music Corp.&#8217;s music is influenced by such artists as Mick Karn, Pink Floyd, Gary Numan, Tim Hecker, Casino Versus Japan and Miles Davis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8216;Paris Music Corp.&#8217; album is available now everywhere digitally, including&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/music.apple.com\/us\/artist\/paris-music-corp\/1210511226\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Apple Music<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;and<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/05Dl2AQEJ8cnupfcS93oHF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Spotify<\/strong><\/a>.
