Melina Paxinos is a saxophonist and composer who combines modern Jazz with her Greek roots in her pieces. Born in Hamburg and living in Berlin for almost seven years, she studied music production - arranging and composition at SRH Hochschule der populaeren Kuenste and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts. A fusion between ‚odd meters’, mediterranean melodies and groovy riffs build the foundation of her compositions - „Greek-Jazz“. Melinas first album „Circle of Oddness“ (2018) illustrates the connection of the odd and even meters and also links the circle constant π = 3.14 by Archimedes, with which her father always opened his suitcase and to whom this album is dedicated. Inspired by the Athenian vibe she recorded her second album „Athens“ (2019) in her hometown Athens in the Sierra Studios and named it after it. On this album the special guest is Ross Daly, who accompanied the band with his Cretan lyra. Melina's third album "Remixes EP" (2020) in collaboration with the legendary Lena Platonos, pioneer of Greek electronic music, is based on four compositions from Melina Paxinos' two albums, Circle of Oddness (2018) and Athens (2019). 
 Her 4th album titled "Time" - Melina Paxinos Quartet feat. Andreas Polyzogopoulos is out now. (Melina Paxinos, Yiannis Papadopoulos, Ntinos Manos , Dimitris Klonis, Andreas Polyzogopoulos
