Conceived during lockdown in 2020, the album is an imaginary escape: salty air, ouzo on ice, ferries gliding between whitewashed villages. With no way to travel, Alex and Ludo composed the Elsewhere themselves — a blend of hazy synths, floating saxophone, and dreamy Mediterranean groove.

Alex brings a background in dub and free jazz, Ludo draws from Balearic textures and rave memories from 1990s Texas. Together, they channel a sun-drenched sound built on longing, levitation, and slow-motion movement.

*Glika* — meaning “sweetness” in Greek — is not about a destination, but a state of mind. A perfect listen for fans of Music From Memory, Len Leise, or La Bella di Notte, and anyone seeking warmth beyond the horizon.
