Kryptox:

"Toy Tonics sublabel Kryptox comes with a new album by Greek harpist SISSI RADA. “Demeter in Aexone” is a 45’ pure solo improvisation on harp. Using no post production techniques and no overdubs, the album was recorded one afternoon in her studio in Voula, Athens, overlooking the ancient demos of “Aexone”. It is a tribute to the ancient myth of Persephone, the daughter of the goddess Demeter, to whom the Eleusinian Mysteries were dedicated.

The music evokes archaic atmospheres, as raw wooden sounds intertwine with modal harmonies and extended techniques, by this ancient instrument, hailing from 3.000 BC that is suddenly transformed into a current medium. The harp that Sissi Rada plays is a rare 100 years old Lyon and Healy Style 3 harp.

It’s Sissi Rada’s 2nd album on Kryptox. The label created by Mathias ‚Kapote‘ Modica as a sublabel for Toy Tonics to show the wild band and musicians scene from Berlin. (There are no DJs and no electronic dance producers on Kryptox).
After releases of jazz and experimental bands like Joel Holmes, Zeitgeist Freedom Energy Exchange and the much acclaimed compilation series KRAUT JAZZ FUTURISM here comes Sissi Rada, also known as Sissi Makropoulou.
SISSI is a multifaceted artist who has navigated the realms of both classical, experimental symphony, avantgarde chamber music and electronic music with finesse. She has collaborated with Brian Eno, Lee “Scratch” Perry, Andi Toma of Mouse on Mars, Jay Glass Dubs, Lena Platonos, Daniel Barenboim, Teodor Currentzis, Yannik Nézét-Séguin, Andris Nelsons and Donald Runnicles.

Hailing from Greece, Sissi has carved a distinctive niche for herself with her unique blend of ethereal vocals, innovative soundscapes, and a fearless approach to genre-defying sound exploration.
She has studied music at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam (Bachelor in Music), at the Hochschule für Musik Detmold (Master in Music, Solo) and the Universität der Künste Berlin (Master in Music, Orchestra). With notable skill, she collaborated with orchestras, such as the Berlin Philharmonic, Deutsche Oper and musicAeterna contributing to the classical music landscape with both technical prowess and emotional depth."
