| music STATHIS KALYVIOTIS, lyrics KRISTI STASSINOPOULOU
|
| Greek singer, lyricist and fiction writer Kristi
Stassinopoulou continues to pilot her own path into global consciousness.
With one foot firmly planted in Greece's traditional folk rhythms
and melodies and the other pointed towards a fresh mixture of
future electronica, ambient, and 60's psychedelic rock, "The
secrets of the rocks" delves deep into Kristi's iconoclastic
realm of the mystic and reveals a thrilling, high energy, moving,
mesmerising series of tracks,enriched by tantalizing sound textures
and ethereal vocal lines. Employing such traditional instruments
as saz, flutes, bagpipes, lyre & nay, Kristi, "an Adriatic version
of Bjork...", "reminiscent of Marta Sebestyen...", "greek version
of Hedningarna...", - as been described by reviewers - blends
her greek influences into a genre-defying, neo-hippie fusion
of world music. The "Secrets of the Rocks" were first written
on remote Aegean beaches, and are dedicated to those who are
eventually losing their free natural space, to the kind of people
who are being chased off by "civilization". |
