The past two weeks we managed to create a promotional Cyanna digipack including an audio CD (tracks: Ebabe, Like Fire, Liquid main, Liquid DNC) and a DVD with 4 killer live videos from the gig at Club22 (Liquid intro, Ebabe, the Apple, Like Fire).. Achilles+Adamantia designed and created the whole thing from the artwork and photos inlcuded, to the incredible-collectors item-ultra-rare-package..damn this thing looks good! (the following photos cant even describe half of it..)
Anyway, in the meantime we have a new track ready called “electron”, featuring greek lyrics again after more than 2 years! 3 more new tracks are in the process of completion and they’ll all be included in our next live setlist soon to be announced, so stay tuned.
We are also considering one more cover or two..it’s all a matter of time. Actually a matter of not havin enough of it.. (sh*t) 
Cheers.
P.S to our myspace fans/supporters: THNQ BIG TIME PPL..

The first album was the “under pressure” one. We loved it, we remember the time we had makin it and we miss it. The experience was mind+heart-blowing, we discovered our limits, at least we think we did (but we hope they are further more..). It’s been a year and a half since its completion and I can still smell hot coffee and cigarettes from the mixing room, I can still see Sertab the cat fiddling around, I can still hear the jokes Sir Christou Aris and Teo made..
Maybe it’s all because we are back in there..:)
This album is the slow one. It’s pressure is released bit by bit, day by day, song after song. This album is free. New songs, old songs, and everything in between. Influences, fetishes, die hard habits, bad manners, fears and tears, joy and faith, misery and denial.. no future but not giving up? Not yet. Cyanna will hit the world at least one more time.
“Ebabe” is nearly through. Next up: “Soul Party” and a new, unnamed yet track. Temporarily called “Ambient song”.
Baby calling to its mother. My loving one.

Last week i began reporting from the studio..since that entry is in greek, for the non-greek readers just a quick heads up:
Since Friday the 21st of October we have started the recordings of our second full album. The first two tracks being produced right now are ‘E-babe’ and ‘Like Fire’. Yannos of Fingers Crossed has recorded the guitars and trust me..the sound is blasting!! We are back to our rock/metal roots with the electro beats pumping harder than ever!!
Anyway..On Monday we completed the vocal recording and now, I am ready to take on my Pro-Tooling sessions. This Sunday i am starting off with ‘E-babe’ and next week ‘Like Fire’. Btw ‘Like Fire’ has been our favourite cover song for more than 3 yrs.. the funny part is that we still dont have the original version in any form!!! 3 yrs ago when we began doing this track live I listened to it for 2 or 3 times just to get the idea of how the melody and the rhythm was..even the guitars are different, not to mention the fact that the original version (by The Dubrovniks) was not electro hehe so i guess it’s going to be an interesting sound to those familiar to the original version because we did not keep many things unchanged.. What has been kept the same is definately the energy of the song which is totally haunting i admit.
After these two songs we are planning to continue right away with the next ones..only thing we dont know which they are going to be.. just to name a few titles: “War [this is]“, “Rememberance”, “Vita”, “Lil’ Story”, “The Hammer” and a couple more unnamed yet..
we’ll see..
Meanwhile i’ve almost completed version 4.9 of the official website.. it will kick in sometime this weekend i hope, so keep your eyes clicked..or whatevah.

Έτσι γι’ αλλαγή λέω να γράψω μια φορά απλώς τι συμβαίνει..
Από την Παρασκευή ξεκινήσαμε την τελική παραγωγή δύο κομματιών, το ‘E-babe’ και το ‘Like Fire’, με την ηχογράφηση κιθάρας και φωνητικών στο SCA studio. Σήμερα τελείωσε η κιθάρα και αύριο θα πιάσουμε τα φωνητικά. Τις κιθάρες έγραψε ο Γιάννος των Fingers Crossed και πραγματικά, αν και ακόμα οι μίξεις απέχουν πολύ απ’την ολοκλήρωσή τους, ο ήχος μας είναι τόσο γεμάτος και ζωντανός..πάλλεται. Ο Γιάννος μας έχει βοηθήσει απίστευτα όλους αυτούς τους μήνες με την καταπληκτική συνεργασία και αντίληψή του. Οι rock, metal και gothic ρίζες μας αναδύονται σιγά σιγά και αυτό μας πλημμυρίζει αγαλλίαση.. Απ’ ότι φαίνεται κάπως έτσι θα συνεχίσουμε να ηχογραφούμε όλο το νέο υλικό του μελλοντικού μας δεύτερου album.. μόνοι μας, ελεύθεροι από συμπλέγματα άλλων, στο ζεστό SCA με τη βοήθεια του Θοδωρή Ζευκιλή, του’Αρη Χρήστου και του Γιάννου. This is truly kicking ass rock n’ roll straight from the dancefloor..

Εντωμεταξύ εγώ ετοιμάζω μια μικρή ανανέωση του site, αισθητικά και λειτουργικά..τίποτα σπουδαίο, απλά μου’χει κάτσει ένα καινούργιο logo και αποφάσισα ότι ήρθε επιτέλους η ώρα το CN λογότυπο (αυτό που είναι αριστερά εδώ στο φόντο) να πάρει την πρώτη θέση στο artwork της σελίδας.
Μόλις κάποιο κομμάτι είναι έτοιμο, εννοείται ότι θα ανέβει εδώ στο site.. 
‘Αραγε πόσοι διάβασαν μέχρι εδώ;
