This record is the first complete collaboration between Lefteris Volanis and Dimitris Pagidas who along with Vasilis Dokakis have formed the trio No Clear Mind over the past 15 years. “Outside the long walls” is a musical creation whose canvas is filled primarily with a mix of electronic and guitar, organic synthesizer sound, saxophone, electric pianos bound together with drums and percussion, xylophone along with intervening soundscapes. There is a deeply melodic work with a strict sonic and timbre aesthetics that reference the new wave and post-punk outsiders, folk, progressive, space rock and world music for the past decade interspersed with tributes to the soundtracks of the 60s and 70s European cinema. The band use both Greek and English lyrics interchangeably since the vocals are simply a means of achieving aural magic. Recorded in Epidaurus between March 2020 until September 2023 Mastered by Richard König Vinyl Master by Ekelon Cover photo by Eftichia Vlachou Artwork by Giorgos Maraziotis
