THE MUSIC BOOK OF THE '90s

THE MUSIC BOOK OF THE '90s

The irritating "hits", the haircut-cap for men, the purple lipstick for women, the turloubuki clothing fashions, the meaningless accessories, the boy-bands, the "foundation" of folk-pop, the intermingling of "sports and music", the "purists" who talked about musical "sell-outs", our "sindiers" who didn't play the written cds... These were some of the things (we don't exactly want to) remember from the 90s... In this decade, however, more general changes in the musical and social scene...

In Greece, the art world prevails by state: abundance of gold records, dominance of radio stations like Melodia. At the same time, the phenomenon of pop pop appears - really like a cyclone... How exactly we got acquainted with Annoula, Despinaki, Keitoula and Mazo, probably none of us remembers exactly. Thatcher's downtrodden children begin the decade under the Mediterranean sky of Ibitha, fed on tiny pills of methylamphetamine (ecstasy). In British pop, the waves of a sea of melodic choruses are constantly submerging the frowning remnants of '80s doom, and even today we wonder whether Seattle and grunge had in mind to change rock after all. Metallica's iconic Black Album keeps the metal flag flying high.

For the first time all decade in a luxury edition. All musical genres, with opinion articles and mapping the whole decade, over 250 albums and 500 tracks, as well as concerts, habits and movements, in an edition to remember and appreciate the most important things that happened in the 90s.
