Review by Eugene Boyle

Ivanov is an album that showcases the incredible talent of Greek musician Δημήτρης Καμαρωτός. The album features a blend of traditional Greek music and modern electronic beats, creating a unique and captivating sound.

The tracks on Ivanov are expertly crafted, with each song telling its own story. From the hauntingly beautiful "Ανατολή" to the upbeat and energetic "Μπάλλος," every track on the album is a delight to listen to.

One of the standout features of Ivanov is the use of traditional Greek instruments, such as the bouzouki and the clarinet. These instruments add a layer of authenticity to the music, and help to create a truly immersive listening experience.

Ένας Άγνωστος
Αργά Βήματα, Στην Πλατεία Με Τα Βεγγαλικά
Πρίν Τρία Χρόνια
Πεσμένο Άλογο
Ο Ν. Με Μια Κιθάρα Στον Κήπο
Κάποιοι Ξένοι Τραγουδούν Στήν Έισοδο
Έχεις Σκόνη Στον Ώμο
Το Κρόταλο Του Φύλακα / Χρόνος
Παλιό Τραπέζι (Και 7 Πρόσωπα)
Η Σ. Και Ο Ν. Μόνο Κοιτάζονται
Άμμος Στις Μπότες
Αναμονή Στο Δωμάτιο Που Βλέπει Στον Κήπο
Μια Σύντομη Διαμονή, Σε Δυό Μακρινές Πόλεις
