Dead Can Dance have written their own unique chapter in global music scene, while they often draw inspiration from Greek civilisation. Their highly eclectic aesthetic is strongly influenced by Greek music (ancient & Byzantine).\u00a0After an\u00a0idea of Eleusis 2021 and in particular Lia Dimou\u2019s (local sound artist),\u00a0Dead Can Dance created -without financial claims- the song \u201cELEUSIS\u201d; a musical composition inspired by the city and its history. Its aim is to support and share the vision of Eleusis 2021 for the \u201cTransition to Euphoria\u201d.<\/p>\n
The video that goes along with \u201cELEUSIS\u201d consists of various shots taken in the city of Eleusis during October 2016. The filmmaker Mari Shibata (London, UK), after having walking through Eleusis\u2019 neighbourhoods, she captured city moments, inspired by the vision of Eleusis 2021 for the transition to EUphoria and \u201cELEUSIS\u201d by Dead Can Dance. The aerial shots were taken by the Eleusinian Labros Dovinos.<\/p>\n
