vATHINAIKI KOMPANIA WAS FORMED IN the BEGINNING of THE DECADE of the 70's. WE PARTICIPATED IN the COMPETITION TELEVISION SERIES "HERE'S YOUR OPPORTUNITY" FOR NEW BUDDING ARTISTS of "1978" AND WALKED AWAY WITH THE 1st AWARD. THE INTRODUCTION A LITTLE LATER (1981) TO THE AREA OF RECORDING STUDIO FEATURING THE NEW SONGS WITH THE DISTINCT AND INDIVIDUAL SOUND OF DIMITRI HATZIDIAKOU (DEAR UNCLE TAKI - AGAPITE THEIE TAKI) MET WITH IMMEDIATE SUCCESS AND A LITTLE LATER, IN the BEGINNINGS of 1982, the SECOND DISK (REMEMBER UNCLE TAKI - THIMISOU THEIE TAKI) FOLLOWED WITH OLD LAIKA (FOLK) AND REMPETIKA SONGS, THE SAME YEAR. THE NEXT STAGE OF ATHINAIKI KOMPANIAS' COURSE WAS the COLLABORATION WITH the UNFORGETTABLE CREATOR OF THE MUCH ACCREDITED TELEVISION SERIES "THE MINORE OF DAWN - TO MINORE TIS AVGIS" OF FOTIS MESTHENEOS. LATER FOLLOWS THE SOUNDTRACK RECORDING WORK OF THE ORIGINAL TELEVISION SERIES. THE SOUNDTRACK RECORDING COURSE of ATHINAIKI KOMPANIA IS CONTINUED UP TO RECENTLY CONSEQUENTLY SPAWNING OUR LAIKI (FOLK) MUSICAL TRADITION. NOTABLE COLLBORATIONS INCLUDE: G.MITSAKIS, X.ALEKSIOU, E.VITALI, L.HALKIAS, H.GARGANOURAKIS, V.PAPAKONSTANTINOU, G.KORROS, G.VASSILOPOULOS etc. ATHINAIKI KOMPANIA REMAINS FOLK AT HEART, AND AS SUCH, OUR LAIKO (FOLK) SONG STYLE WILL REMAIN UNCHALLANGED!! WE CONTINUE TO MAKE APPEARANCES IN EVENING LAIKA (FOLK MUSIC) CLUBS, AS WELL AS EVENTS OF CULTURAL ASSOCIATIONS, MUNICIPALITIES AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS. DISCOGRAPHYOrkut Glitter Graphics & Comments
