Normalidad by Evripidis and his Tragedies, Caliza
"Normalidad" was written on the piano as a protest song in a waltz
rhythm, and was reworked with synths later. It reflects on how the
concept of "Normal" is a powerful tool of oppression. Inspired by
violent instances of homophobia and misogyny that occur on a daily
basis, the song features strong lyric imagery contrasting with
dreamlike soundscapes created by cascading, glimmering synths and
vocal harmonies. It features Caliza, a beloved electronic musician and
environmental activist from Madrid.
A greek version of the song can be found on Neos Kosmos.
Cover by Marc Ribera.

Evripidis and His Tragedies is Evripidis Sabatis. The "Tragedies" are the devastating, confessional, self-sarcastic, darkly humorous songs that draw on his classical piano training, queer sensibility and storytelling skills to examine and own up to the vicissitudes of life. Evripidis' pop inclinations take us for a bumpy, dancey ride across the fine line between tragedy and joie de vivre.
