Athenian Aggelos Baltas has been producing music for more than a decade now, with his Fantastikoi Hxoi project gathering both local and international praise for its bold blend of disparate styles and influences, spanning a wide spectrum of psychedelic music.
His Anatolian Weapons releases on Lurid Music have been played by open-minded, adventurous jockeys like Lena Willikens (who selected one of his tracks on her Dekmantel compilation) while his edits have been appreciated and hosted by labels like Fortuna Records. 2019 seems like a busy time for him with a well received album on Tim Sweeney's Beats In Space, as well as a remix for Dark Entries and compilation tracks for Emotional Response and Crevette. Fresh from his U.S. tour he is ready for the next stint of European dates, without ever stop digging and producing music.
