‘Xaos’ is post-Troika Hellenic Trance Music, a hybrid of Greek folk, post-traditional and classical music instruments, from the last 5,000 years, with modern computers and keyboards to combine ancient and modern ideas via the sonic manipulation made possible by present day technology. The extraordinary album (out 22 June 2015 on Independent Records Ltd.) took Greek microtonal electronic music composer, keyboard player and painter Ahetas and Anglo-Greek performer, producer and writer Dubulah ten years to record and complete. 
Check out “Pontos Blues”, the opening track of the album, a 21st century Greek Blues - like Nick Cave and Ry Cooder meeting at a black sea port … featuring Pontic lyra and voice, microtonal keyboards, double bass, percussion, dobro slide guitar and kanonaki.
