Andrei Ropcha is a musician from Romania, one of the founders of the Morandi group together with Marius Moga. The greatest popularity of the group fell on 2007-2011, however, even today, from time to time, musicians delight fans with new compositions.
Early biography
Andrei Stefan Ropcha was born in 1983 in the Romanian city of Pitesti. It is known that he studied music at the specialized Lyceum of the Arts Dinu Lipatti, perfectly mastering the piano. Soon after receiving his education in 2004, the aspiring musician moved to Bucharest, where he met like-minded Marius Moga. Together they created a small recording studio and experimented with music for some time, producing compositions for private clients.
Soon Andrei and Marius decided that the time had come to record their own work. They named their tandem Morandi, using the artful interweaving of letters from their names. It is interesting that in the 60s an Italian singer named Gianni Morandi was very popular in the world, but it is not known whether this was also reflected in the name of the group. Lyrical pop with electronic elements was chosen as the musical direction, and in 2004 the group recorded the first single Love Me. The CD was distributed to nightclubs by the musicians and the song was incredibly successful.
Creativity as part of Morandi
In 2005, the official release of the single Love Me took place, which captured the charts not only in Romania, but also in Greece, Bulgaria and other countries. By this time, the group was already actively recording their debut album called Reverse, the release of which was not long in coming. Soon, Morandi's songs were humming by fans all over the world, and they constantly hit the top of the music charts. It is worth noting that the team included five more musicians, but it was Andrei and Marius who remained public figures.
The artists were not going to stop there and worked almost without rest. Already in 2006, the second album Mindfields was released, which was remembered by the singles Falling Asleep and A La Lujeba and continued to bring the group wide popularity. It is still unclear where the musicians got their inspiration from, since again a year later the new album N3XT was released, which is considered the best in Morandi's career.
The very first single, Angels, blew up the charts all over the world and did not leave their top lines for a long time. The second single Save Me in tandem with the singer Helena was released in 2008 and became the anthem of nightclubs, including in Russia. The colorful video clips of Morandi, which perfectly complemented their sonorous compositions, were also actively discussed. Soon the third single from the album Colors was released. From that moment on, Andrei and Marius were constantly on world tours and for some time did not create new compositions, deciding to release a collection of their best hits in 2011.
The further fate of the group
With a frequency of about one year, Morandi releases new compositions, delighting its fan community. The tracks Everytime We Touch, Summer In December and Keep You Safe, released from 2013 to 2016, were highly praised by music critics and ordinary listeners, and also acquired clips that the band publishes on their YouTube channel.
Andrey and Marius have a warm attitude towards Russia and Russian listeners. They took part in the recording of the documentary show "Euro Course" on the "Match TV" channel, one of the issues of which was dedicated to the group's hometown - Bucharest, and also shared the details of the recording of a special single timed to coincide with the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia year. This is how the groovy song Kalinka was born, dedicated to Russian fans and a great sports event.
