The 'Blood of Love' is a famous song by Mikis Theodorakis; and one of my first attempts to add special harmonies and beats to his music.

» highest in charts:   # 2065   (278,411 songs currently listed in Electronic)
» highest in sub-genre:   # 24   (13,980 songs currently listed in Electronic > House) » today's position in sub-genre: # 478 in House

In March 2006, I visited Mikis Theodorakis in his home and delivered to him a CD of seven remixes/remakes of his music. This particular song was second on the list, and contains some radical "alternative harmonic expansions" of the original music. I have not worked any further on this particular song since then, so it's technically imperfect but -I think- very interesting.

(A letter of approval by Mikis Theodorakis about my work is included in my music home page).

This song's lyrics are a poem by Odysseus Elytis.
My own English translation (and philosophical analysis) of this song's lyrics is in my blog, in a posting titled "The Archetypal Muse - Goddess in the poem �Blood of Love� (by Odysseus Elytis)" (click here).
