Stepping into 2025 with a great review of "In Existence": "Ạoris would be at home on Manfred Eicher’s legendary ECM label where atmospheric jazz and neo-classical that crosses into the realms of the meditative and mesmerizing reigns supreme."
Thank you Igloo Magazine🙏

Jazz and neo-classically informed piano and Rhodes-like timbres take center stage across the nine pieces gathered together for this debut full length effort. Interlaced ambient textures and rhythmic melodies round out the sound palette.

"...sometimes cute, sometimes scary, and thoroughly entertaining from beginning to watery end." Dalot's "Aquarium" made it to the top ten of A Closer Listen 2024 Ambient list.

Approximately 4000 instrumental albums were submitted for review this year, nearly half of them ambient. To reach the summit is like climbing up the hill on the cover of Hollie Kenniff’s For…

"Το In Existence του Ạoris καταθέτει ένα καλά μελετημένο μείγμα νεοκλασικής σύνθεσης, μοντέρνας τζαζ και ambient ηχοτοπίων. Εννέα κομμάτια για στιγμές χαλάρωσης, περισυλλογής, αλλά και απομόνωσης από τους θορυβώδεις συναδέλφους στο γραφείο." 🙏 Byron Kritzas Η Καθημερινή της Κυριακής K magazine

First review for Dalot’s “Aquarium” comes from A Closer Listen . “Dalot‘s Aquarium is a delightful album that can be read on a number of levels: as a diary of parenthood, an ecological parable or a celebration of summer. Or one might simply take it at face value: the story of a lionfish in an aquarium…”
Thank you 🙏🏼 Richard Allen!

Our favourite sounds for this summer come from Dalot's new album "Aquarium" coming out on LP and Digital Album on June 17th. The musical tableau inside “Aquarium” draws from a variety of influences including Greek kid’s tv shows from the 80s and early 90s as well as more contemporary influences often encountered in the sound of Dalot leaning towards more minimalist, electronic and experimental sounds.
Enjoy the aquatic experience of the first single "The Swimmer" which is now available on all digital platforms. Pre-order the album (distributed via Inner Ear Records) online (link tree in comments).
