-Chapter
24 (a.k.a. "Kefalaio 24")
|
|
Co-established in
1982 by Antonis Livieratos ( keyboards) and Vagelis Boulouhtsis
(bass) in Ioannina, Greece, the nowadays highly respected yet still
unclassifiable "Chapter 24", ("Kefaleo 24" in Greek),
were named after Syd Barrett's song.
|
|
Their first album
(following a couple of independent home- produced cassettes), "Tin
Invaders" in 1988 features lyrics in English and despite
the avant-garde reputation of the band, is definitely pop- oriented.
|
|
In 1989 the
original duo grows into a quartet with the addition of guitarist Periklis
Boulouhtsis and drummer Yannis Mitsis and moves from Ioannina to
Livieratos' hometown, Athens. This second line-up is featured in the
instrumental album "To Evretirio ton Simptoseon" ("Index of
Coincidences") recorded between 1989 and 1991.
|
|
From 1992 on the
band retains the same, stable trio line-up (Antonis Livieratos, Vagelis
Boulouhtsis, Periklis Boulouhtsis). They have been fully active for the
last couple of years.
|
|
Their fully
improvised double CD "Drop-in/ Drop-out" was released in
February 2007.

-Dr. Atomik
|
|
Rumors say that
the band are being remote-controlled by some mysterious (suggestively
inexistent) DR. ATOMIK who is supposed to remain voluntarily isolated in a personal fortress in the middle of the steppes.
|
|
Fact is that Dr.Atomik
are the band that absorbs Antonis Livieratos' songwriting for the last few
years. Their original not-very-stable lineup appeared in March
2004 to be dismissed some months later after a few gigs.
|
|
The second incarnation of the band
appeared a year later: Since June 2005 they have been playing their unique
hybrid of raw rock 'n' roll and computer-generated electronic
noises.
|
|
Dr.Atomik is: Antonis Livieratos (vocal, guitars & electronics),
Adonis Goulielmos (guitar), Grigoris Iliopoulos (drums) and
Yiannis Nikolaou (moving images).
|
|
Their debut album was released in July 2007

-Illegal
Operation
|
|
Illegal Operation were
formed in summer 2000 by Antonis Livieratos, Stathis Ioannou, Manolis
Angelakis, Marios Sarakinos and Yiannis Marinos. They were originally
oriented towards tearing down old blues songs (Delta mainly) and using
their bits and pieces to build their own, fresh material. The results are
audible in their "Blue Project" (2001) album as well as the two
singles "Space Boogie" & "Careless Love" that
accompanied it. "The Bust" (2002) captures them working on old
TV series musical themes. In spring 2003, Livieratos leaves the band
feeling that he was no longer sharing the same creative interests with the
rest of the band.

-Sigmatropic
|
|
Sigmatropic
were founded in 1998 by Akis Boyatzis' who, since then, is
responsible for all their material. Antonis Livieratos was, from
the beginning and for almost two years, part of the live and studio
line-up of the band. He also co-produced with Boyatzis their albums
"Random Walk" and "Sixteen Haikus & Other Stories"
and the single "Air". He also participates in all the above and
the 1999 "If You Were Me" single as a
musician.
