Today, I'm a bit disillusioned. I just gave up. Gave up my alarm-free awakenings and countryside roamings. Instead, I'm back at it. The dull job-routine, logged again on social networks, struggling with words to put together into posts. Scheduling releases which are already 6-months delayed yet not even announced. Paying thousands to the press company with my own savings cuz the latest record is not selling. 
The to-do list draws out and I now wonder why I even put myself into this in the first place.

Okay, breathe. Let's focus and start with the next premiere. Wow cool, a song from pals Angel Hunt & Lou Venturini. Damn, another cool issue of smoked-out rock, freak folk and bedroom experimentations. Taking from their first LP: the same batch of dreamy guitar riffs, along with morning-numb voices and noice beats. To be accompanied by a huge mug of scalding coffee. Well, this day ain't so bad after all, and everything might even be alright. Thanks guys for smoothing it up!

MBE009 CHRISTOS CHONDROPOULOS - CHANTS & SONGS

Recalling the first issue of Trance Mediterranea, MBE series is presenting “Chants & Songs” an outstanding long recording on greek folk music selected and recorded by Christos Chondropoulos.

Christos Chondropoulos is a percussionist and an electronic music producer from Athens, for the MBE009 he recorded a 60mins mixtape with a focus on side A on greek folk chants from Epirus (his homeland) and Northern Greece, while on side B he moves on a more rhythmic side of folk music from the same geographic area.
Polyphonic chants, trancy bagpipes, cadence tambourines evoking practically all aspects of life, childhood, marriage, mourning for the dead, pastoral life or historical events.

A mesmerizing work of excavation on the Mediterranean Sea popular culture.

Music selected and recorded by Christos Chondropoulos
Curated by Giovanni Napolano
