ABOUT UNREEL:
Unreel is MK-O second 2CD album. A colourful world of sound unreeled in 103 minutes. Not a pompous "concept album", but an endless musical coherence created by an imagination inspired by almost everything. Classical and jazz, psychedelia, progressive and new wave, techno and industrial, ethnic and drum n' bass and traditional greek. 15 out of 23 tracks are instrumental leaving a quite significant number of songs. The lyrics are both english and greek. The orchestrations even more solid than OVATION, with a strong presence of brass and strings, along with the standard electronic - rock band armory. It is a sense of complete that characterizes UNREEL.
