Sea + Air

SEΛ + ΛIR define their songs as „Ghost Pop“: A mixture of long-lost Mediterranean melodies and exotic instruments telling a story of their own. Influenced by Pontic music and Rembetiko, traditional Greek intruments like the Lyra or the Bouzouki are used and already the opener „We All Have To Leave Someday“ leads to an adventurous musical journey. Daniel and Eleni experiment with Byzantine singing and the rhythmic and emotional freedom of an age-old music tradition captured by Elenis spaced out voice in „Flowers From The Distance“. SEA + AIR love playing with extremes and sexual stereotyping. Daniel's falsetto voice and Eleni's androgynous singing confuse the listener, leaving it unclear who's singing the lead on „Mercy Looks Good On You“ and „HaHaHaHaHa“. The orchestral „Lady Evropi“ is a forseeing vision to the situation in Greece describing its dividing relationship to Europe.
