7. SUN FANATICS

 for Sock Free Hideaway

GREAT START to the year with this super drifter of a mix. Many thanks Yorgos! Choc full of atmosphere and blended with love, I feel like I'm on a comfy sofa for a change. Look out for Contalux over the coming months and in the meantime, settle next to the fire and put your feet on a furry foot-stool and drift away for a few hours. Yes, that's right, put it on repeat play.

"I was never about the avant-guard per se. I grew up listening to the usuall 80s/90s stuff along diverse numbers like electric era Miles. I consider tension in music as a characteristic that seeks to resolve. A little melody here and there, is good to balance tension with release."

Contralux (http://catnappers.net/artists/contralux.html) is the project of Athens based producer/guitarist George Koutalieris aka "Yorgo Kappa". There, he explores new ways of sound making, merging his guitar with vintage analog equipment, and using a modern synthesis approach. Amagalmating his own field recordings, subtle melodies, immersive soundscapes and vocals as the expression of life’s creative energy, he aims to recreate the feeling that is pervasive in all Mediterranean places. He has worked with a wide range of artists, playing guitar live and in the studio, producing etc. Being a member of the very famous Greek band Rififi has given him massive airplay, press and tv interviews as well as high web and especially youtube visibility. His plan is to set up a stage band for Contralux very soon.
