Cygnus X-1 is the first CD release by Dimitris Pantazis, a twenty-one year old guitarist from Greece. Pantazis participated in several musical projects, including a Greek hard rock band before creating Cygnus X-1, doing all the production, performing and recording himself. The CD features seven all instrumental tracks with lots of tempo and style variations, full of feeling, power and melodic sensibility. All guitar work is performed by Dimitris Pantazis, while Greek guitar virtuoso Theodore Ziras, who has been working with and teaching Pantazis for the past six years, assisted in mixing and mastering. Don't miss the album about which Wayne Klinger at F.A.R. Out! wrote, "Another great instrumentalist off the Secret Port label that offers some sci-fi, Oriental and Asian-mixed progressiveness with a lot of ambience and atmosphere, since the three main elements are heavy rhythms, great lead work and mood-induding keyboards." Instrumental Guitar (Electric (Heavy)/Heavy Metal/Progressive), total running time, 48:08
