Daemonia Nymphe Lyrics
Надо ли представлять Daemonia Nymphe?
Культовая греческая группа по праву носит звания "лучшей нео фолк группы из Греции" или "греческой Ataraxia".
Говорит Spyros Giasafakis (Daemonia Nymphe): "
К нам поступило предложение, что бы сделать электронные ремиксы на навши песни.
Идея воспроизведения наших традиционных греческих инструментов посредством электронной музыке показалось мне весьма интересной.
Сочетание древних и современных созвучий делает наши песни актуальными сегодня и позволяет взглянуть на творчество DAEMONIA NYMPHE с иной стороны.
Все музыканты, создавшие ре-миксы на наши треки, являются нашими друзьями, музыку которых мы слушаем сами".

Unfortunately I don't speak greek. I came from Brasil.
I quickly visited Greece at 2017, for the first time. I became fascinated by the good energy that emanetes from the charism of authentic greek people, and his places.
I feel myself imediatly with a strong desire of settelment at Greece for life.
Maybe I could've lived at Athens, Greece, in a distant past life. Even though not totally left behind.
On the other hand, there was noticeable to me, the youngster's despise for their ancestry, despite the free-flowing of greek-culture. Perhaps.
I prefer to think, that the heritage over-flow blinfolds them.
_My greatest actual concern is when I could return to revisit such magnificent places of
Greece, and his warm atmosphere, and hospitality of Greek people!

I love this. I'm Scottish and this could very easily be a Celtic tune eh? Breathtakingly brilliant.

As a Cretan citizen and Cretan Lyra player i ll tell you that Celtic music and Scotland is our second homeland.
I ve been there i have friends there and Scotland feels like home to me. We share so many things with Celts not only music.

@ΦΟΙΒΟΣ ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝ this is a very "narrow-minded" way of thinking for a Greek...

@delagrazia Εκτος οτι σε αυτο το thread δεν ειπε ΚΑΝΕΙΣ οτι οι Daemonia Nymphe παιζουν αρχαια Ελληνικη μουσικη, ΜΟΝΟ εσυ το αναφερες, οι DN παιζουν αυτο που ειπες, δλδ Hellenic Gothic/Folk το οποιο δεν εχει καμια σχεση με "βαλκανικη μεσογειακη κλπ", το τι ειναι κλπ μονο εσυ θες να ειναι ετσι XD. Ο ορος για "Βαλκανικη" δεν ισχυει, και η Μεσόγειος ειναι μια θαλασσα.

Well, its European to say it in general so its just logical ;). Also, northern Hellenic folk music also has some bagpipe stuff as well (but it goes specifically for the Thracian style) as you Scotts also use. Maybe you have a specific Scottish bagpipe, i know there are different bagpipes, if i am not mistaken (?). But more correctly this Hellenic Gothic/Folk as the band call themselves as well.
