We made this remix for one of the most fun live acts Holland has to offer: Gallowstreet - a 10-piece instrumental sensation, and above all - one hell of a brass band.

Monika Christodoulou has been writing and performing her original songs on the Athens, Greece music scene since she was a teenager. After early breakout success with a string of deeply emotional self-recorded tracks posted online, Monika's 2008 debut LP was a platinum seller in her homeland, and she quickly became a major concert draw across Greece and Cyprus, headlining all the major festivals. Her second LP, released in 2010, continued Monika's success at home, but she was already becoming restless, for a different sound and a new direction. On a trip to New York in 2012, Monika made a pilgrimage to Daptone Records' Brooklyn headquarters, to see where some of her favorite artists recorded -- from Sharon Jones to Amy Winehouse and Mark Ronson. Almost on a whim, Monika knocked on the door, and Homer Steinweiss (founding member of the Dap-Kings & Menahan Street Band) answered. Soon she was playing demos she had on her phone for Homer and Thomas Brenneck (MSB, Budos Band, etc). The connection was immediate, and the next stage of Monika's career began. 

The whole of 2014, Homer and Monika worked together on her songs and her sound, and together they shaped what was to become Secret in the Dark (out Oct. 2, 2015 on Other Music Recording Co.). Recorded at Steinweiss and Brenneck's Dunham Sound Studios in Brooklyn, with Homer producing, Brenneck recording, and a band that included most of the Menahan Street Band, and various members of the Dap-Kings, Antibalas, and others from the Daptone family, the album puts Monika's incredible voice and talents as a songwriter and performer into a completely new context, and also pushes Homer and the band in directions they have rarely explored before. A mix of organic '70s-styled leftfield disco, '80s art-pop, and much more, Secret in the Dark is a distinctly New York album with a breezy Mediterranean heart. It's soulful, arty, and a ton of fun -- a dance record that is much more than that, and will serve as the introduction to the world of the amazing artist and personality that is Monika. 

Monika - Secret In The Dark

Album Title: Barefoot Socrates
Genre: Smoky Jazz-Blues / Bohemian Noir / Retro Soul
Vibe: Sultry, Intimate, Late-Night, Cinematic
Description:
Barefoot Socrates strips away the marble and robes of antiquity to reveal the original bohemian wanderer in a dimly lit, smoky atmosphere. This album is a masterclass in mood, transforming the probing questions of the Agora into a sultry, late-night confession.
The soundscape is steeped in nostalgia and noir textures. Anchored by the warm, walking rhythm of an upright bass and the organic pulse of congas and bongos, the groove swings with a subtle gypsy-jazz influence that feels both timeless and raw. Over this rhythmic foundation, smooth retro guitar lines weave intricate melodies, echoing the Socratic method of endless questioning.
The defining element is the vocal delivery—deep, husky, and female. She delivers ancient wisdom not as lectures, but as soulful, emotional revelations. Tracks like "The Dreamless Sleep" and "The Gadfly" are reimagined as torch songs, where the search for truth burns with a slow, cinematic intensity.
Barefoot Socrates is a record for the midnight hour, capturing the essence of a man who owned nothing but possessed the ultimate wealth of the mind. It is philosophy felt in the gut, delivered with the heart of the blues.
