about

Swedish-Greek Thessaly Hifi’s debut-EP unites analog synths with ancient strings. On the Krifi Ammos EP, Thessaly Hifi collaborates with bouzouki player Panagiotis Patsogiannis and guitarist Antonis Kissouras, both based on the island of Skiathos in Greece. The tracks explore moods and ambiances on the island, inspired by composers Zambetas, Loizos och Bithisikotsis. Thessaly Hifi is a transnational platform following the Greek rebetika tradition by means of instrumental and analogue electronic interpretations. Rebetika was created in Greek cities in the early 1900s by migrants who fled the Greek-Turkish war in Minor Asia. Thessaly Hifi is a continuation of this diasporic transnational tradition.

The founders of Thessaly Hifi:
Thessaly Hifi are Anna Gavanas and Peter Eriksson. Anna Gavanas has previously (as Gavana) explored rebetika with her Greek Acid EP (2019) and Greek Dub EP (2020). Peter Eriksson has a background as a musician and producer. He runs Meerkat Recordings Studio has mixed, mastered and remixed international artists. During more than a decade, Meerkat recordings has enriched festivals, clubs and radio with intercultural influences like jungle, italo, Grime, dub, Asian Underground and Cumbia.
