Experimental electronic composer Billy Yfantis proudly presents his new double-length anthology album, “2015–2025 The First Years in Space.” Spanning a full decade of sonic experimentation, this 30-track release represents Yfantis’ artistic evolution through ambient, electronic, and noise-based soundscapes inspired by the mysteries of the cosmos.

The album compiles highlights from Yfantis’ previous releases along with nine previously unreleased compositions, forming a complete chronicle of his creative journey across the past ten years. Each piece reveals a unique approach to sound design, mixing music technology with conceptual art and a fascination for scientific exploration.

Among the most distinctive pieces:

• “The Electric Drill Session” features real sounds of an electric drill, turned into rhythmic, industrial elements that blur the boundaries between man-made tools and music.

• “Landing” incorporates authentic NASA spaceship sounds, carefully edited and arranged to recreate the sensation of landing onto an unknown planet.

• “Dust Not Found” includes real vacuum cleaner recordings, turning the chaos into an experimental metaphor for the emptiness and silence of space.

Other highlights include the meditative “Ionosphere Reverie,” the expansive “Cosmic Noise” and “Planetary Noise,” and “The Universe Collapses (Live at Norcal Noisefest 2022),” a 15-minute improvisational performance recorded at one of the world’s leading experimental music festivals.

“I am pleased to present you my compilation which is a fair synopsis of my recordings (8 full albums and 5 singles) between 2015 and 2025. This is a reference point on the evolution of my music.”— Billy Yfantis

The second part of the album introduces nine previously unreleased tracks, including “The Journey,” “Dreaming Among Planets,” and “Behind the Eye of the Universe,” which explore new territories of analog synthesis, lo-fi atmospheres, and ambient acid tones.

Inspired by the breathtaking phenomenon of the Moon’s phases, New Moon highlights BILLY YFANTIS‘ lifelong passion for astronomy. The album’s idea is based on the eight principal moon phases—the constant transition from darkness to light and back again—resulting from the ever-changing interaction of the Earth, Moon, and Sun. This cosmic story runs through the album, encouraging listeners to discover the beauty and mystery of the universe.

Each track has been specifically created to reflect a different stage of the Moon, from the calm mystery of the New Moon to the bright peak of the Full Moon and the elegant retreat into Fading Lights. Throughout the album, Yfantis combines layered analog synths, atmospheric drones, and throbbing rhythms to create an atmosphere that reflects the adventurous spirit of his musical inspirations.

Billy Yfantis’ style is a distinct mix of Tangerine Dream’s ethereal, space soundscapes and Vangelis’ dramatic, epic synthesizer soundscapes. His work also pays tribute to Jean-Michel Jarre’s revolutionary compositions, whose adventurous, experimental approach to electronic music paved the way for new audio exploration. New Moon, packed with the raw spirit of krautrock, combines analog warmth with up-to-date digital production to create multilayered deep soundscapes that reflect nostalgia as well as futuristic excitement.

New Moon Tracklist:

1. New Moon
2. Waxing Crescent
3. First Quarter
4. Waxing Gibbous
5. Full Moon
6. Waning Gibbous
7. Last Quarter
8. Waning Crescent
