Also by Kristi Stassinopoulou: Ifantokosmos
| "The Secrets of the Rocks finds her and her partner, Stathis Kaliviotis in a great mood. Occasionally, (as in the triumphant "Strong Winds Blockade" and "Whirlpools" and the reflective "The Islands") they write some of their best songs ever. It should be noted, however, that this is most of all a concept album (in the original early Seventies meaning of the term) and so every one of the songs plays a role, even though the lyrics usually refer to the same things or even use similar phrases throughout. The music is also very much similar throughout but don't think for a minute that it becomes boring. This is helped by the inclusion of short but distinctive musical parts: a lyre here, a ney there, a traditional passage elsewhere." - Nondas Kitsos, RootsWorld |
The record lable rap:
Greek singer, Kristi Stassinopoulou continues to pilot her own path into global consciousness. With one foot firmly planted in Greece's traditional folk rhythms & melodies and the other toward a fresh mixture of future electronica, ambient, and psychedelic rock, "The Secrets Of The Rocks" delves deep into Kristi's iconoclastic realm of the mystic and reveals a thrilling, high energy, mesmerising series of tracks, enriched by tantalizing sound textures and ethereal vocal lines.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
