First of all, I have to say that this band “KATO APO TO DENTRO” (english: under the tree / spanish: dentro del arbol) has done a great job.
Secondly, They are a great band beyond the boundaries of a music group, as they are a collective and part of a wider music family.
Wonderful scattered timbres that create instruments like acoustic guitar, bass, the bagpipes (gaida), the variety of percussion, the clarinet, the cretan lyre.
The band "KATO APO TO DENTRO" I had the pleasure to discover in the past through myspace... and without exaggeration I can say that this is one of the best proposals in contemporary Greek music. Besides, how many times we can hear such possible configurations where the pentatonic scales and traditional rhythms accompany technological sonic creations that lure in the trunk of a tree?
Finally, it is worth mentioning: the excellent production of the record, the beautiful naming the titles of the tracks, and of course the excellent artwork on the CD cover, with the trunk of the tree where you can sit beneath it and enjoy these 11 compositions. - Text: Alexander Gerasimos
