FL, aka Fanis Labrou, returns with his 2nd album, the
"Hidden Letters", released by Deectiva Music , adding to the original sound with which he introduced himself to us, different musical genres and elements.
"Hidden Letters" creates a complete sound environment that naturally
touches on hip hop and listens in the most eclectic way to the sound of the era of our time.
An album that balances in a cinematic way between instrumental themes and original sounds, samples, vocals and Greek lyrics which is the surprise of the album.
Together with Daphne Bluebird, Anna Saranti, Elgreco, MCD, Jones and LEF who participate in "Hidden Letters", FL sets up a journey through a complete album in his own sound that expresses emotions and at the same time makes a comment on everything we live today.
"Demon of Seville", a track with obvious influences from "Valburi Night"
is the first single from "Hidden Letters". The sounds of the bells
refer to the medieval darkness with witches and witchcraft and are combined
harmoniously with the intense instrumental elements and the dynamic beat.
"Hidden Letters" is released on February 17th on vinyl and all digital platforms. The cover artwork has been designed by the artist Fotini Bouhara from Thessaloniki and is a continuation of the cover that she designed for the previous FL's previous album, "No regrets".
