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:
“The anarchy, assassination, and sacrilege by which the Kingdom of France has been disgraced, desolated, and polluted for some years past cannot but have excited the strongest emotions of horror in every virtuous Briton. But within these days our hearts have been pierced by the recital of proceedings in that country more brutal than any recorded in the annals of the world.”
—James Boswell (1740–1795)
“Slow, slow, fresh fount, keep time with my salt tears;
Yet slower yet, oh faintly gentle springs:
List to the heavy part the music bears,
“Woe weeps out her division when she sings.”
Droop herbs and flowers;
Fall grief in showers;
“Our beauties are not ours”:
Oh, I could still,
Like melting snow upon some craggy hill,
Drop, drop, drop, drop,
Since nature’s pride is, now, a withered daffodil.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
“If a Sovereign should, by great accident, deviate into moderation, justice, and clemency, what a contemptible figure would he make in the catalogue of Princes!”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
