Anemos
ANEMOS went public in 1998 when their first album "ANEMOS" was released by Warner Music Greece. The nucleus of ANEMOS is Kostas Hatzopoulos (music-arrangement-lyrics) and Katerina Nitsopoulou (lyrics-vocals). Along with them there are several exceptional musicians of the Greek music scene contributing the special characteristics of their musical idiosyncrasy.
ANEMOS in Greek means wind, a name that perfectly suits the vision of the group. The music of Kostas Hatzopoulos and the lyrics-vocals of Katerina Nitsopoulou refer to something extremely sensitive yet dynamic at the same time. Ethereal vocals and melodies, Rock elements, Greek traditional themes, renaissance motifs and unfolding memories from all over Greece of Epirus, Thrace, Crete and the Aegean, create a rare and original balance that harmoniously finds its place in the modern reality of today.
Their debut album is an inspiring collection of 11 songs and 2 instrumental pieces with an extremely original and impressive sound.Their song Miazis me Fotia, track 1 in the debut album, appears also in the CD Mediterranean Odyssey, Athens to Andalucia by Putumayo World Music 1999.
Their second album Thymata Irinis ( Warner April 1999 ) became an instantaneous success in Greece, constantly on the Top 10 of the Billboard and number 1 or 2 on the Radio Charts all over the country.
The third concept album of ANEMOS Isos I agapi contains the title song of the successful TV series “Athoos I Enohos ” in Greece, followed by the cd single ANEMOS mix (Warner 2001) containing rhythmic remixes.
ANEMOS' remake of the old popular song Spasmeno Karavi with the voice of Dimitris Basis and vocals by Katerina Nitsopoulou makes it an instantaneous hit and achieves a golden CD single - Warner 2001.
In the summer o 2001 ANEMOS tours Greece and Cyprus with the prominent Greek artist Haris Alexiou and continued their appearances with her at the music scene of Kerameikos in Athens, in the winter of 2002.
ANEMOS is also involved in writing music for theatrical plays such as the Small Plaza by Carlo Goldoni for Kalamata's Theatrical Company and CableBound for the international theatrical company Scene de Loon.
ANEMOS ’s 4th album Kodikas Entos was released by MBI in May of 2004. Rhythmical as well as melodical tracks unfold sound colors and senses that are acoustically intriguing as well as revealing for the sentiment.
In 2006 they released the remake of the old time classic ''Madoubala" in the compilation cd Tote/Tora by EMI.
In December 2007 ANEMOS "Paradise" is being released by "Protasis", opening a new cycle and showing the evolution of the group.
The name ANEMOS (wind) allows them to be sensitive as well as dynamic depending on the circumstances and moods in the same way the vibrations of the wind (ANEMOS) are sometimes delicate, having a dream like quality and some other times dynamically overruling, creating an unexpected vigour of freedom.
The vibrations of the wind are the ones that carry the seeds of the present in to the future...
