PRETTY SOON IT'LL ALL TURN TO DUST

GOODBYE MY FRIENDS, GOODBYE WORLD

I'LL SEE YOU IN THE NEXT LIFE

___________________________________________

Inspired perhaps by the launch of their new label, Cosmic Gate take a big bold step down the electric-house strasse here. Re-tasking the acapella-apocalypto written by and vocalized by Ithaka (Ithaka Darin Pappas) in 1993 [for Underground Sound Of Lisbon], they crank up the extreme frequencies and EQs while using trance aspects as incidentals, rather than the core. Sure to divisive in terms of Trance Family opinion, but any which way you cut it, you can't deny its effectiveness on the dance floor.

Ithaka : So Get Up & The Lost Acapellas

ithaka : So Get Up & The Lost Acapellas

Collection of vocal poems recorded in Europe in 1993, which had been completely lost until being rediscovered in early 2017 (on a damaged cassette tape in a Los Angeles garage). These are the companion works for the iconic, So Get Up.

 https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/ithaka2

Californian-born writer and vocalist Ithaka (aka Ithaka Darin Pappas) relocated from his native Los Angeles in 1992 to Europe where the artist entered of six year period of hyper-creativity. There he wrote, vocalized, created sculptures and photographed among other activities.

In 1993 he wrote a collection of poems for a daily audio segment he hosted on a program called Quatro Bairro on Rádio Commercial, Lisbon. After reciting some these poems live on Rádio Comerical in 1993, he later recorded them as a collection of demos with a producer friend in the UK.

The next year he recorded one of these poems, So Get Up, with the progressive-house project Underground Sound Of Lisbon who achieved massive international success with the track via distribution by Tribal/I.R.S. Records in New York.

Between a series of moves and career developments, the original 1993 vocal poem demos recorded in England were lost. Neither studio technician or artist could find the original, or copies.

So Get Up went on to become an international EDM anthem remixed by greats such as; Miss Kittin, Fatboy Slim. Mert Yücel, Dave Seaman etc.


Later in 2013, the song saw yet another chapter of fame when top DJ's both Hardwell and Armina Van Buuren endorsed a new version of the So Get Up rleased by German trance music stars Cosmic Gate using Ithaka's original lyrical/ vocal acapella)

Ithaka himself went on to record a series of critically acclaimed hip hop albums.

Here together on this disc are two new vocal recordings of Ithaka's iconic poems "So Get Up" and "We Are The Players" (recorded in Mexico - 2017) along with the complete collection of vocal-poem acapella demos made in 1993, some with their original proposed instrumental sketches. Please note: These are not intended to be finished songs, but instead are included to demonstrate Ithaka's early musical direction prior to both Underground Sound Of Lisbon's version of So Get Up (1994) and his own solo album, Flowers And The Color Of Paint (1995).
