Viktor Mastoridis - My Greek Christmas Album
Popular Christmas Carols in Greek style, sunny and playful. Performed on Greek bouzouki, baglamas or acoustic guitar. Spiced with native Balkan rhythms, even odd-time signatures.
It sounds like a trip around the world, with in-your-face lyrics that tug at the heart and soul.
According to Luna Blanca leader Richard Hecks, listening to El Dorado is "a musical adventure that simulates a journey and search through South America looking for riches, but encountering both bandits and the good native people, music, rivers to cross, and the beauty of a new land including warm breezes and sunsets. El Dorado also is a symbol of everyone’s search in life for love, wealth, accomplishment and happiness."

Let yourself be enchanted by the renewal of the urban scene, which brings sunshine to your evenings, walks, or relaxing and rest. Discover the Inattendu album of artist 'kharYsma aka Arafat-NZABA'
tAngerinecAt - Rise of the Underworld
Rise of the Underworld is more that just a piece of music, it is a hypnotic, haunting sometimes eery and other times soothing musical journey into another world.

The album is a varied jaunt through successive layers of electronic stimuli, ghostly sound effects, ethereal vocals, and lush...
Brad Pitt Light Orchestra - Fireside Chat
Imagine an evening sing-song in front of a blazing fire with a selection of your most urbane friends. Fireside Chat, the BPLO's first EP, is the aural equivalent, packed full of toe-warming vocal harmonies and sparklingly witty lyrics. Unclassifiable but instantly classic.
