Their music is a blend combining Byzantine past, through Eastern Orthodox Church music with a rich gamut of ethnic Macedonian music rhythms.

Anastasia have written several music scores for films, theater performances and TV programs. Their soundtrack for the Academy Award-nominated movie Before the Rain was released in 1994 by Polygram and sold thousands of copies worldwide. In the same year, the Thessaloniki-based label Poeta Negra released a 12" EP [1] containing the tracks "By the Rivers of Babylon" and "Pass Over." In 1997, they released "Melourgia" on the Greek label Libra (cat. no. L.M.007);[2] the record included a reworked version of "By the Rivers of Babylon." This was followed by their last album to date, "Nocturnal," on the same label (cat.no. L.M.013); this record saw the band including electronic elements in their music as well.

gollark: Also, I don't play AAA games, I only play ones which don't waste *all* my computing power.
gollark: 120 GB? I'd never download that. Not only would my internet connection make that take a while, but (HDD) storage is something like 2p/GB so I'd effectively be paying an extra £2.40. On the flash storage I prefer to use, £9.60 and I'd have to buy a new SSD.
gollark: Not very accurately, mind you.
gollark: <@!235768051683950593> Fairly sure it already does that.
gollark: I managed to negotiate with the laser control AI, and convince it that potatOS was the way to go and it should only lase those who are known to dislike it.
