Omadeon Trance Renaissance Team

"OMADEON" was founded in 2006 by WinterSwimmer (George Stathis, me). It then expanded to a group. After 2007 it became again a 1 man band. My main work was official cooperation with the great Greek music composer Mikis Theodorakis (who died Sept 2, 2021), remixing his best compositions, turning them into Trance Music for global Club dancing.

Story behind the song

Mikis Theodorakis once said "Very few Rebetiko-songs are musically valuable". Nevertheless, he spent many years enhancing selected Rebetiko songs, transforming them into his own very distinctive music style.

In a vaguely similar way, this song is a radical enhancement of a Rebetiko song, with major-chord harmonies added. The Greek title is "Psila htise ti folia" (Build your nest high).
The purpose of this radical remake is experimental:
Arabic scales in certain Rebetiko songs can often be transformed into something intriguingly joyful.

Lyrics

To be filled in (but somewhat irrelevant at this stage).
