THE ANSWER!!!



For the last months, in all different ways, we come across the same question. Have you called the quits?



Needed peace and quiet to complete this. Now that the "HE&SHE" album is at the mastering process we can finally return.


The last 2L8 activities weren't even posted in the news section, well we needed to keep it quiet and focus on the "HE&SHE" project which was quite demanding and exhausting. You see it was really hard to cope with such an ambitious production and the decision to record this entirely on our own made things even worse. But all these days are finally over. We are about to give birth.



In the link below you can find the "HE&SHE" tracklist, lyrics, plus a brief audio presentation:



THE PLACE PROMISED IN OUR EARLY DAYS




Talking about promises, we promise that from now on this site would come back to life the same way 2L8 will.

And to prove we are nothing but alive come and see for yourselves next Wednesday, Oct 31st at the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art [9 p.m./free entrance] at the opening of the exhibition of the 2006-2007 Aristotle University Fine Arts graduates.



We thank you for your interest, your persistence, your kind and warm words.

Thank you for sending your love.
