Reviewer Nick Parastatidis writes about Mike Dimareli's new CD Fantasy, "Once upon a time in Greece the only well known neo-classical metal guitar virtuoso was Angelo Perlepes. Since then things have changed a lot and the Greek metal scene seems to have escaped from its own misery. After the releases of Theodore Ziras' albums, Secret Port Records introduces us a new enchanter of the six string goddess. His name is Mike Dimareli and with the album Fantasy he proves us that you don't need to be a guitar player to enjoy such a release. One thing I appreciate a lot in this effort is that Mike doesn't try to show off by playing nothing but solos. On the contrary, he is a very good composer and all the songs are well balanced between melody and virtuosity. Fantasy is an instrumental album that flows easily and you will enjoy every single moment of it. All the instruments on the album were played by Mike, with drum machine, except for the keyboards, which were played by well known artist Bob Katsionis." Instrumental Guitar (Electric (Heavy)/Neo-Classical Metal/Hard Rock), total running time, 30:10
