The IndieFunda Project

The indiefunda project is a collaboration of independent artists around the globe, who want to create a platform where an independent artist will be able to have financial aid directly from his/hers audience. Check it out!

May Roosevelt

Influenced by the very reverend trinity of Bach, Björk and Klaus Nomi, May Roosevelt is an extraordinary thereminist, composer and producer with a sense for good, old-fashioned drama. Her classical arrangements will give you the shivers (or, at the very least, remind you of movies that gave you the shivers), with nods to early industrial or electronic music and a passing resemblance to the god of thunder behind a theremin. Like many people, she got into music via her first Casio synth as a kid. If her knack for otherworldly sounds is anything to go by, that Casio must have been possessed by some very restless and musical ghosts.

2L8

2L8 is the project of K the Clown and a team of collaborators and musicians based in Thessaloniki, North Greece.

Berlin Brides

The Berlin Brides’ sound is a hybrid of electro, punk and powerpop. They were founded on September 2007 by Natasha Giannaraki, lyricist and lead singer and Marilena Orfanou, keybordist and composer who gives the band its electronic identity. Conceived in Berlin and formed in Greece, they are reinventing the music scene in Athens with their caustic lyrics and their combustible live performances.

Electric Litany

The story of the band started, when Alexandros and Richard met in London. Alexandros moved from Corfu to London, while Richard was leaving Devonshire for London in search of forming a band of his own. Duane was the last member to join the band, since he was found by Alex and Richard through an ad. Their first rehearsals were taking place in some pretty unusual places, like abandoned and derelict buildings.

New Zero God

New Zero God is a Greek punk/post punk rock band formed in 2006. Their popularity in Greece may be due to the veteran musicians who make up the band; as most Greek rock fans were already familiar with Mike Pougounas and Averkios Hadjiantoniadis from The Flowers Of Romance, which is considered a legendary Greek gothic rock group.

DR.ATOMIK

2:29 AM  Nikolas L  No comments

DR.ATOMIK's second album "REPTILES" is now complete. It was produced and mixed by Antonis Livieratos at his home based hobART phASe STUDIO, Athens, GR. Release dates will soon be announced. Both vinyl and CD versions of the album will be available. DR.ATOMIK appeared for the first time in 2004. Four drummers, two bassists, a video artist and a violin player came and went before the band settled at their current quartet line-up. Antonis Livieratos (www.livieratos.gr) is the main songwriter of the team. He has been actively involved with the Greek rock and experimental scenes as a musician and producer for more than two decades. Besides his 3 solo albums he is a a founder member (since 1982) of the still active "Chapter 24" band. He has also been a member of the bands "Sigmatropic" and "Illegal Operation". Adonis Goulielmos credits include bands "Rockin' Bones", "Fella" and "Cosmic Teds". Vaios Zitonoulis was a member of Low Noise along with Yiannis Tryferoulis who, also, is or has been part of Sigmatropic, Swinging Tyranhas, Genia tou Chaous, Moist Device and more... DR.ATOMIK's live show used to consist of two musicians (handling guitars, a laptop and an organ) playing in front of the screen where the "moving pictures" (live video art created in real-time by band's third member) were projected. Now that a drummer and a bass player have been added to the line-up, the use of sequenced electronics and video are reduced to a minimum. But their unwillingness of reproducing their recordings on stage has remained unchanged. So, never expect two Dr.Atomik gigs to be exactly the same... DISCOGRAPHY Their debut album Dr.Atomik, (HitchHyke Music, 2007) was produced and recorded by Antonis Livieratos (at hobART phASe STUDIO, Athens, GR) and Mixed and Mastered by Paul Hamann (at SUMA, Painesville, OH, USA) RELATED WEBSITES www.dratomik.com (Greek and English) www.youtube.com/dratomikband www.livieratos.gr (Greek and English) www.myspace.com/kefalaio24 www.myspace.com/ommamusic
