A collection of previously unreleased songs of the last 30 years by Georg Kajanus

Released in September 2006


Here is a newsletter from Georg Kajanus about his new CD including previously unreleased songs of the last 30 years:

"Due to the warm response that I have received for the exclusive release of the DATA albums, I have decided to present 'KAJANUS (revealed)'. This 25-track CD album spans three decades of my musical composition and is a collection of demos, demo masters and masters.
As with the DATA CDs, this album is an exclusive, digitally remastered, autographed, pre-commercial release. For some songs, the only available source material came from acetate, vinyl or cassette, however, 16 tracks are sourced from studio analogue multi-tracks.

'KAJANUS (revealed)' contains the following songs:
