Konstantinos Argiros makes history by becoming the first Greek superstar to sign a global record deal with 10K Projects, which operates under the auspices of Warner Music.
This collaboration is an unprecedented achievement in the Greek music scene. It is the first time that a Greek artist has officially joined a global record label of this caliber. At the same time, it strengthens Greece's position on the global music map and paves the way for a new era, where tradition, authenticity, and the Greek spirit gain an international voice.
As part of this strategic collaboration, leading artist, Konstantinos Argiros, and Panik Records, the No. 1 independent Greek record label, announce the creation of a new music label called Pentagon. Based in Greece, Pentagon aims to promote and export the music, talent, and culture of both the country and the Mediterranean on a global level through contemporary production, storytelling, and international distribution.
Konstantinos Argiros says: "I am truly delighted about this great collaboration. I'm not here as a front-runner of global music. I’m the Greek underdog, and I’m here to win. Promoting Greek music and culture internationally has always been a core professional goal of mine. I’m ready to do whatever it takes to put not only Greece but the entire Mediterranean region at the heart of the global music scene, showcasing our music, talent, and culture through contemporary production, storytelling, and international distribution.”
Paris Kassidokostas Latsis, co-founder of Panik Records, states: "We at Panik Records warmly salute the exciting news of a prospective collaboration between Konstantinos Argyros—one of the most successful Greek artists of his generation—and 10K Projects, one of the world’s leading independent music labels. This alliance holds immense promise, blending the richness of Greek musical heritage with global influences. We are confident that the outcome will be both authentic and artistically powerful, paving the way for exceptional music to reach audiences worldwide."
George Arsenakos, co-founder and CEO of Panik, points out: "We, the Panik music family, are proud that Konstantinos Argiros, a pioneering, creative, and dynamic artist, has signed with a global record label. We are also delighted that Greek music will be traveling around the world. We strongly believe that Konstantinos Argiros and Greek music will win the hearts of the entire planet, as the Greek spirit always knows how to do."
The president of 10K Projects, Nico Ziangas, states: "I am very excited to be working with Konstantinos and Panik Records and to be part of the effort to establish Konstantinos as an even more powerful global superstar. His talent, vision, and ability to connect with audiences around the world make this collaboration a unique opportunity to bring the sound of the Mediterranean to an even bigger stage."
This collaboration is a milestone for the Greek music scene—an immediate contract signing and joint venture with one of the largest record companies in the world.
