Goin’ Through

About Goin’ Through Goin’ Through were founded in 1993 by Nikos ‘NiVo’ Vourliotis and Michalis Papathanasiou, two artists who did not want to merely represent a different kind of music, but set out, and accomplished, to create a unique musical style by writing and producing all of their albums. Influenced and inspired by artists such as Stevie Wonder, James Brown, Method Man, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and LL Cool J, the band wrote its own history of success during the last 14 years. Goin’ Through evolved rapidly over the years, releasing five albums, three CD singles, a maxi single, and two best-of albums, collaborating with famous Greek and foreign artists, and receiving honorary recognition by the music industry on several occasions. In 1998, Goin’ Through managed, via the French music television station MCM, to reach the No. 22 spot on the European Charts, and in 2002 they signed a deal with Def Jam and Universal Records, releasing the album “Symvolaio Timis (Contract of Honor)”, which included several successful collaborations with very important and well-known Greek artists. 2004 proved to be a successful year as well for the group, with the release of “La Sagrada Familia”, which includes a track featuring legendary hip-hop artist and leader of Gangstarr and Jazzmatazz, Guru. The same year, Goin’ Through were honored at the MAD TV Music Video Awards (the top music television station in Greece), taking home the award for “Best Hip-Hop Group” as well as “Best Hip-Hop Video”. In addition to those achievements, Goin’ Through also released a special edition of the album “La Sagrada Familia” last summer, which included a remix of their song “Poso Malakas Eisai” by DJ Chaos of the famous Terror Squad Crew. This remix was heard for the first time during this year’s ARION Music Awards (Greek equivalent to the Grammy Awards) where Goin’ Through performed live at the prestigious concert hall, Megaro Mousikis, causing strong reactions in the Greek media. Year 2005 – 2006 seems to be the group’s zenith so far. Their album “La Sagrada Familia” was awarded with a golden disc and Nikos ‘NiVo’ Vourliotis was awarded “The Most Stylish Man Of The Year” by Status Magazine Awards, something that can be regarded as an achievement for a rapper considering the Greek mentality, which is fairly far away from its urban counterpart. With their last album ‘Vendetta’, that was released on 29th May 2006 they have achieved a continuous presence in the Top 5 (Greek charts) and more specifically, the album’s leading single ‘Kalimera Ellada’ was legally downloaded over 200.000 times! December of 2007 new album of Goin’ Through “Veto” has been released and became gold in 10 days! Apart from the artist activities, Goin’ Through is the only group in Greece with so many business deals, as a result of working with the biggest Greek advertising companies as well as sponsors. Examples include Vodafone, Red Bull, various alcoholic drinks, Milko, Puma, New Era, Dada, Metaxa, Wind, Sony Ericsson and Turbo X. After hard work and many obstacles, whatever you obtain is sacred and honorable. “Goin’ through fire and iron...” - two words written on the wall, on paper, in the mind, and in the soul…
