Monika Christodoulou

It was recorded in New York in collaboration with musicians from the Dap-Kings, and sees Christodoulou moving away from the folk, singer-songwriter style of her earlier albums towards a disco and funk sound.

In 2006 she completed her own demo, recorded at her home, and distributed it around Athens as well as uploading it on MySpace, where it became a word of mouth sensation, garnered her a spot as opening act for Calexico (with whom she performed "An Thymitheis T' Oneiro Mou" live in Crete) and spawned her first breakthrough song "Over The Hill".

[4] Produced by Ottomo (real name Nikos Aggloupas) and with Martin Wenk from Calexico as a guest trumpet player, it features confessional lyrics and was influenced by artists including Leonard Cohen, Ennio Morricone, and Arcade Fire.

The album was recorded in New York in collaboration with Homer Steinweiss and Thomas Brenneck, both members of the Dap-Kings who previously worked on Amy Winehouse's Back to Black (2006).

[7] A review for The Guardian describes the album as "a wholly Daptone Records affair that attempts to stuff the irrepressible energies of disco, funk and soul into one package.
