Greek  music blog Soundeyet has put together a phenomenal compilation of Rebetika covers, featuring the likes of Amen Dunes and Astral Social Club. Rebetika was/is a style of Greek working class music that came about in the ’20′s and 30′s, focused mainly on drugs, women, drink, and poverty.  The bulk of this music is found on 78′s. Sensing a renewed interest and appreciation for the Rebetika scene, Soundeyet presents this compilation in hopes “that you will download and enjoy this compilation as much as we did…our wildest dream is that this could set fire to new generations of fearless Rebetika explorers both in our land and abroad.” Read more about it here. Dig at will.
