Welcome to the musical dimension of Lavrys! :)
Lavrys is founded and led by Aris Giannakos since 2012. We advertise, manage events and develop projects through a network of specialists.
Lavrys is the root of the word “labyrinth”. It is a specific double axe, sacred symbol of the Greek Minoan empire.
It was created over 5000 years ago in Minoan-Cretan Greek mythology & philosophy. As a tool and weapon required to kill the Minotaur and escape from the labyrinth, it metaphorically symbolizes all physical and mental virtues needed in order to improve perception and break free through oneself's introspective mental process.

BIO(My musical life-trip):
I was born in Greece. My roots into psychedelic music started growing in 1991, when I 1st listened to goa music, then started playing the guitar, studying music, listening to psychedelic rock/metal and anything new that had something to give or suck out of my soul.
Later, in 1998, I got a blast of psytrance music, finding out the early creations of projects as GMS, Skazi, Parasense, Dark Soho, Astral Projection, Doof…
My passion for analyzing the connection of music with feelings&thoughts quickly brought me into many different music scenes such as punk rock, funk, reggae, ska, blues, psychobilly and more.
Since 1997, I've been (road)tripping through 15+ European countries for the beauty of nature and music/art festivals. Through my adventures, I found out that the Earth is my dancefloor and I sensed my natural, spontaneous, ecstatic way to dance, feeling the rhythm. As a result, I gladly play the drums&percussion since 2003.
Through the years 2012-2013 I organised more than 10 massive electronic music parties in cooperation with WERK, SAY WHAT and more event organizer labels, presenting artists, such as Sunchase, D-Jahsta, Cubism, Insom, Disphonia and more.
After moving to Sweden in April 2014, the amazingly unique experience of wild forests, colorful sky phenomena, forest parties and festivals boosted my inspiration for a new journey of creation...
Psychedelia(from the ancient Greek word "ψυχεδέλεια") = soul manifestation.
No Hesitation.
Wonder about everything.
Embrace change.
Manifest your will.
