Pink Floyd - Athens, 31.05.1989


On the 31st May in the year of our Lord 1989 Pink Floyd set foot for the first and last time in the Olympic Stadium in Athens. An because God loves us every once in a while, there was a camera in the stadium, which recorded almost 90 minutes of this historic concert. Quality is pretty good, given that the video is almost 20 years old.

This is the whole setlist, unfortunately not all of it is included in the video...

Your Hand In Mine - Yogoto No Yume - OST + EP


Your Hand In Mine is a group from Thessaloniki, Greece. Their album came along a couple of months ago as a really nice surprise, since we haven't seen something worth mentioning from Greece for quite a while.
The story behind the Yogoto No Yume Soundtrack is that the band was asked to write music for the 1933 Mikio Naruse's silent film "Yogoto No Yume" (Every Night Dreams) and present it live at the 48. International Thessaloniki Film Festival.
For me, this album worked really as a warm soundtrack of two very important weeks of my recent life. And since it had an impact, i feel like sharing it here.
So, if you like soundtracks (and Yann Tiersen) give it a go. Let it play in the background.
Here it is.
But since this isn't the only release of Y.H.I.M. you can listen to their self-titled EP, HERE

Beirut – Gulag Orkestar



The first album of another wonder boy from the United States. Zach Condon travels all the way to the other side of the globe, meets somehow the sounds of Balkan music, filters them and present us with this really balanced piece of work. Nice melodies and variety of instruments shaped in the form of a pop album (and not in one of a serbian charity event...).
Probably one of the strongest releases of 2006, given it's a first album and a different direction in the whole indie folk scene that's growing in the USA.
Here it is.

"Sorry about the rain, but it's a Radiohead gig..." - Berlin, 8. Juli 2008



A long overdue post. We didn't keep the updates as prompt as we hoped. However, here are the videos of this wonderful concert. A great setlist and an overall good appearance from the band. Many highlights, perhaps (looking back at the concert) the best were "There There", "All I Need" and "Where I End And You Begin" in the rain. And of course all the "OK Computer" tracks.
