Recorded Music Catalogue
The Minos EMI back catalogue, both from the inheritance of the EMIAL and Minos Matsas & Son discographies, carries important works that form part of Greek music heritage of the twentieth century in all genres, but most notably in the genres of Rebetiko and Laïko. Minos EMI actively exploits its catalogue by digitally remastering works for re-releases, compilations and special releases, and by licensing to third-parties engaged in the strategic marketing of back discography.
Parent company EMI had released music from Minos EMI's back catalogue through other EMI companies, such as under their world music label EMI Hemisphere and EMI Classics, in a collaboration between Gerald Seligman, EMI Hemisphere founder and Vangelis Yannopoulos, Minos EMI A&R and Strategic Manager.

Famous quotes containing the words recorded, music and/or catalogue:
“There is one great fact, characteristic of this our nineteenth century, a fact which no party dares deny. On the one hand, there have started into life industrial and scientific forces which no epoch of former human history had ever suspected. On the other hand, there exist symptoms of decay, far surpassing the horrors recorded of the latter times of the Roman empire. In our days everything seems pregnant with its contrary.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken and so die.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The catalogue of forms is endless: until every shape has found its city, new cities will continue to be born. When the forms exhaust their variety and come apart, the end of cities begins.”
—Italo Calvino (1923–1985)
