From mid-November 2010 until July/August 2011 I will have basically zero activity on MBz since I will be serving my mandatory army service. If needed I can still be contacted through e-mail but it will probably take some time until I can reply.

About me

MBz / Last.fm

Languages: Greek, German, English, Dutch (If you need any help with any of the languages mentioned above or anything about greek music in general, feel free to contact me at any time)

Greek music geek. My main editing and voting activity has to do with greek artists and releases since there are not so many people currently working on those but I generally work on almost all genres and artists (especially jazz, rock and generally experimental music).

I also try to add as many ARs as possible when I add new releases.

To do list

• Finish and correct the discography for Μάνος Χατζιδάκις with all proper ARs (including singles and albums he produced). The main source of information is the discography page on his official website.

• Add the last few main releases missing for Ελευθερία Αρβανιτάκη and credit her with ARs for the rest of the albums she guested on participated in. I think I'm almost done with this one.

• Add the rest of the 7" releases for Μάρκος Βαμβακάρης with all the proper release events and ARs. The main source for this is the Rembetiko Wiki and a collector's excel sheet.

• Add the few missing albums for Σταμάτης Σπανουδάκης with the proper ARs.

• Get working on adding/fixing the discography and ARs for Μίκης Θεοδωράκης which is currently quite a mess. I need to find a good source of information for this.

• Finish the discography for Διονύσης Σαββόπουλος and add any more ARs that might be missing.

• Get started on adding more rembetiko (non compilation) releases/singles with their proper ARs.

• Add ARs to older albums that don't currently have this information. The main source of information for this will be discogs and my music collection. Currently trying to do this with Leonard Cohen's discography.

• Track down and link all the covers of Leonard Cohen's songs

• Maybe see if I can get the time/information to work on some more mainstream greek pop artists which usually don't have that much information listed on MBz.

Label catalogues that I need to finish adding

(Just greek ones for now)

• Δίκτυο using the label's discography page.
• Anokato Records using the label's discography page.
• Ρεί (Anokato sublabel) using the label's discography page.
• Klik Records using the label's discog's page (for now).
• Sirius
• Seistron
• FM Records
• Puzzlemusik
• Inner-Ear
• Archangel Music
• The Sound of Everything

My long term goal is to eventually have the complete catalogue of Lyra in the database which will probably never happen but I will try my best to find a good source for this. Other than that I really need to looking into the whole EMI Greece / Μίνως / Minos-EMI situation.

Labels that I need more information on

• Penguin
• Granny Records
• Μύλος
