Darkthrone founder delivers his "most important communication with the world so far" in exclusive mix
Fenriz, aka Gylve Fenris Nagell, is the lynchpin of Norwegian metal institution Darkthrone, as well as a DJ, broadcaster, occasional music blogger and the subject of the Invisible Jukebox feature with Anne Hilde Neset in The Wire 392. After the feature was completed, a download link dropped into our inbox. "I deem it my most important communication with the world so far, this mix," Fenriz emails. "It shows heaps of what I am into that people just don't know, they just assume and pigeonhole.
"When I play eclectic I usually play more varied but I wanted to keep it OLD," he continues, adding that his mix, which spans samba, calypso and Indian music, was recorded before the death of Prince Buster on 8 September.

chiotis mambo
i was blown away seeing manolis chiotis/mairi linta in this mix. but if we want to be more accurate "thlipsi" tranlates as "sorrow"

On wikipedia about Manolis Chiotis:
"On the song "they don't make them like you anymore" Rory used the bouzouki of Greek virtouso Manolis Chiotis. Rory was a big fan of the Greek virtuoso, and as a tribute played "Perasmenes mou agapes" as an intro to the above-mentioned song"
You should check out thath song

Manolis Chiotis & Mairi Linda song is "θλιψη" thlipsi = misery

Rifat Öncel’s song which also includes Barış Manço’s orchestra "Kurtalan expresi” should be "Dosta Bizden Selam Olsun”. That means salute to the comrade/fellow/friend.
