State of Flow: Markantonio

/in /by

“Flow” is a scientifically recognized state of mind where a person is completely focused and immersed in what they’re doing- All time seems to stop, the whole world seems to disappear, and the person is performing and creating at their peak levels. Top performance athletes, engineers, and especially your favorite music artists all try to do whatever they can to achieve the State of Flow. Although everyone has their own method to achieve “flow”, factors such as creative workspaces, learning beyond their craft, physical/mental well-being, feedback/self-evaluation on work, and resting time- help all artists create their best work.

With a career that spans over two decades, Markantonio is considered one of Italy’s most accomplished electronic music artists. He shares with 6AM how he achieves key factors to get to a State of Flow for his projects including AnalyticTrail Records, MKT Records, and Casamia Music (aka C.\SAMIA) as the owner and director, and especially for his recent Neapel EP that was released on September 30th, 2022 (Friday) and is now available to purchase.
