   Stefan Krsitinkov, a New York based composer, places Clarinet at the centre of   
   an eclectic EDM fusion album, spiced with strings.   
      
   Many artists make EDM. However, none approaches the genre like Stefan   
   Kristinkov. His unique mixture of classical, jazz, avant-garde and dance music   
   elements, combined with rich inventive instrumentation, which underpins all of   
   the tracks on his latest    
   album titled "A.M.A. (Ask Me Anything)", is truly ground breaking.   
      
   Stefan Kristinkov, a New York based composer and clarinetist known primarily   
   for his work in independent films, does not focus on using electronic sound   
   effects as a means of accentuating the power of his sound. Rather, Stefan's   
   composition, which    
   creates beautiful harmonies with instruments such as violin, a string quartet   
   or even a string orchestra, shines with emphatic glory, without needing any   
   accentuation. Stefan did not complete such a colossal musical project alone.   
   He was assisted by    
   fellow musicians with whom he is close friends. The deep and complex chords,   
   present throughout the album, symbolize the deep bonds of human and   
   human-nature relationships, relationships that were integral to Stefan's   
   creative process as he made "A.M.A. (   
   Ask Me Anything)". At the same time, Stefan presents the profound philosophy   
   behind each track light-heartedly, even with hidden humor, as the subtitle of   
   the album reads, "... any answer, to any question ..."   
      
   "A.M.A. (Ask Me Anything)" is the first full-length album featuring Stefan as   
   a composer and a clarinet player. This project is the culmination of many   
   years of endeavor from Stefan, and was inspired by influences encompassing the   
   full scope of his    
   musical development. From Stravinsky to NIN, the list of Stefan's influences   
   reads like a history of heavy-duty basslines throughout the ages.   
      
   A question listeners could pose to Stefan in response to his request for them   
   to ask him anything, could be how he has brought the clarinet from the side of   
   the orchestra to the centre of an EDM album. Stefan nicknamed this album 'A   
   clarinet like you've    
   never heard it before' to illustrate the delightful fusion between classical   
   and dance music lying at the heart of "A.M.A. (Ask Me Anything)". You can   
   experience this intriguing project for yourself right now, as "A.M.A. (Ask Me   
   Anything)" is currently    
   available for purchase, streaming and download on all major platforms.
