Description:

â??the tension Gika creates isnâ??t just palpable; it makes you want a cigarette and someone to hug. Itâ??s the musical equivalent of the initial descent of a roller coasterâ? â?? Rolling Stone â??Ioanna Gika is a boon for the dark ethereal electronic scene. The singer's angelic voice and ghostly reverberations on debut single â??Roseateâ?? form a delicate marriage with the progressive immediacy of the song's driving beat, a unique fusion of ballad and pulsating dance track.â? â?? Revolver -

The debut solo album from Ioanna Gika (FKA IO Echo), 'Thalassa', takes it's name from the primeval spirit of the sea, a nod to the singer's Greek heritage and a thematic touchstone for the self-produced 10 song set. Written in Greece during a period of familial grief and romantic dissolution, 'Thalassa' documents an unanchored soul facing nature at it's most unforgiving. Gika's unique voice is laid bare, a beacon above the black water of dense, looming production that lies beneath. Her elegiac lyrics chart a path through her own mourning, while luring the ear like a sirens call. From expansive opener Roseate to the stark loneliness of closer Drifting, she channels the helplessness of being plunged into the depths of Thalassa's great waves, along with the adrenaline of not knowing if she will come up for air.
