Loukovikas Michales's Information
From:
Thessalonica
World / Folk / Classical
About Us:
Born in Xanthe, Thrace, to a musical
family, Michales Loukovikas started
singing & playing accordion & guitar
in his father's variety music band at
15. He formed rock groups, then he
turned to contemporary Greek music, &
much later to Rebetiko.
Realizing that he had learned only
Occidental music, he concentrated on
Mediterranean & Oriental folk &
classical modal music. Turning points
in his research were his meeting with
Ross Daly in 1987, & his participation
in the international Musicological
Symposium in Delphi on Mediterranean
music (rhythms, modes & scales) in
1988.
The result of all his efforts is "The
Gold in the Sky", a West-to-East
voyage, passing through several
genres. This work is based on poetry
by Ares Alexandrou, set to music,
arranged & produced by Michales
Loukovikas, sung by him, Helene
Tsaligopoulou & Andreas Karakotas, &
played by Ross Daly, Giorgos Andreou,
Manos Akhalinotopoulos, Kyriakos
Gouventas, Kostas Theodorou & other 30
musicians.
