Ithaka Darin Pappas at 2024 Emmy party at Hotel Mondrian, Los Angeles


Greek-American multi-disciplinary artist Ithaka Darin Pappas at 2024 Emmy party at Mondrian Los Angeles hosted by We Audition and Sky Bar.

The end of the earth is upon us

Pretty soon it’ll all turn to dust

So Get Up !

Forget the past

Go outside and have a blastGo a thousand miles in a jet airplane


Go out of your mind go insane

To a place you never been before

Eat ice cream our you’ll lick the floor

Because, the end of the earth is upon us

Pretty soon it’ll all turn to dust

Goodbye my friends

Goodbye world

I’ll see you in the next life


DJ Vibe, Underground Sound Of Lisbon

"Sleepdriver" by Ithaka Darin Pappas - 1991 poem book reissued

Sleepdriver consists of eleven 1991 poems by artist-songwriter Ithaka Darin Pappas written in a car during a road trip from Los Angeles to Phoenix with his older brother to visit the grave of their recently deceased father. The highly personal poems in the Sleepdriver collection delve into the world of the Southwestern United States and Pappas' interaction with the region throughout his young adulthood. The works include themes such as; life and death, love, loneliness, freedom and ambition. In 1995, Ithaka utilized three poems from this early collection as lyrics for songs on his debut alternative hip hop album, Flowers and the Color of Paint (Sleepdriver, She Makes Good Cookies, Flowers and the Color of Paint). In 1996, renowned Portuguese vocalist, Marta Dias, used the poem Look To The Blue as lyrics for a song of the same title for her album, Yué (the song also featured Ithaka as a guest vocalist). Dias also recorded a song using the poem Look To The Blue, but this song was not included on her album. In 1997, Ithaka used The Plot as the lyrical base for a song featuring artist-vocalist Mimi Tavares that appeared on his album, Stellafly. In 2004, a musical version of Brother Barstow was released on Ithaka’s album, Recorded in Rio. In 2017, a remastered 1992 a cappella version of Who? (entitled Who Made The Grass Green?) was included on Ithaka’s album, So Get Up & The Lost Acapellas.
