about

"Ακινησία" is RETE's third complete album.
Four tracks running at a total of 19 minutes were cut into a beautiful highly collectable lathe cut clear 12'' vinyl of 20 pieces to accompany this edition.

'Ακινησία' LP (greek word for immobility), comes into a period of great mobility for RETE. This paradox scheme is best described through Vasilis Liolios' words in two tracks of the release, narrated by Savvas Metaxas.

'You alone build your prisons, then you bring them down in a rush.
With feet nailed to the ground, you gaze the same horizon for years...'

The tracks took shape through distant sessions followed by hourly discussions over the recorded material, and although the process reminds of cut and paste techniques , the outcome has a firm compositional base.

The instruments/sounds used for this release come from modular synthesizers, field recordings, drum machines, samplers, tape machines and microphones. The usual RETE sound arsenal.

The tracks were pre-mastered through a Revox A-77 tape machine by RETE , and then properly mastered for vinyl by Spyros Emmanouilidis. The record was cut in Rotterdam by dear friend and past music associate, Thanos Hana. Yorgos Vourlidas designed the artwork and the final cover was printed by our trusted typographer Christos Gousios.

We hope you enjoy this record.
