Sotirios aka Sotokkan first approach with music, dates from the early 80's. 
He started djing Rock and Punk Rock in clubs and bars of Athens, and also was involved in various live projects, rock bands etc.
In 1991 he discovers the world of Trance through parties from the Athenian scene, and in 1994 he visits Goa for the first time.
After traveling, when back, he organizes plenty of underground outdoor parties. 
He is also an active DJ for more than a decade on Ios island.

In 2000, his musical life changes when he finds himself influenced by chill out and dub electronics. 
He becomes a member of Direct Connection, a well known electroDub music collective and founders of SUBnDUB music laboratory around 2003, where he handles live electronic synths and samplers 

But he never stopped to DJing and collecting psy trance music, all those years, 
making him an experienced sound maniac. 

Η πρώτη προσέγγιση του Sotokkan με τη μουσική, χρονολογείται στις αρχές του '80. Ξεκίνησε να παίζει  Rock  και Punk σε clubs και bars της Αθήνας ως Dj, ενώ παράλληλα συμμετείχε σε διάφορα live projects, rock μπάντες κλπ. Το 1991 ανακαλύπτει τον κόσμο της Trance μέσω των parties  της Αθηναικής σκηνής, και το 1995 επισκέπτεται την Goa για πρώτη φορά. 
Μετά την επιστροφή του από  ταξίδια, οργανώνει πολλά underground outdoor parties.
Επιπλέον, είναι ενεργός dj για πάνω από μια δεκαετία στην Ίο.
Το 2000 η ζωή του στη μουσική αλλάζει όταν ανακαλύπτει την επιρροή που έχει από chill out και dub electonics.
Γίνεται μέλος το 2003 των Direct Connection, μιας γνωστής electroDub μουσικής κολλεκτίβας και ιδρυτών του SUBnDUB μουσικού εργαστηρίου.
Δεν σταμάτησε όμως ποτέ όλα αυτά τα χρόνια να παίζει και να συλλέγει psy  trance μουσική, εξελίσοντάς τον σε έμπειρο sound maniac

Axios Records is a network of artists, promoters, and psychedelic music enthusiasts who all share the same vision; nurturing genuine psychedelic art experience through a focus to embrace, promote, create and support high quality music releases, acts and events.
The idea of Axios was created in the early 2000s by BEN in Skopje, when first unfolded as a musical network to promote different aspects of psychedelic music and culture. At first this took form through the presentation of artists and labels by organizing events that aimed to share essential facets of psychedelic trance culture. Axios has since been focusing on the support and promotion of emerging artists and collaboration with some of the most influential names on the scene, whose music continues to define psychedelic art.
In a world of hyper-production and increased commodification of musical experience, our goal is to make Axios represent musical expression that is imbued with exploration of genuine psychedelic experience.

Aβαρις(Avaris) is the other project of Archaic. It is downtempo experimental psychedelia, with  deep atmospheres.. Αβαρις(in ancient greek means someone without wheight!!)..Inspired from the Hyperborean ancient hero, "Who was travelling the world and other realities up on his arrow!"
Here you can listen stories and journeys of animals,power animals,dense forests,mountains,lakes,stories of the 3 worlds..
Transformed into the sound as the forgotten language of the higher connection and communication between all things...
