I'm the main composer and the bassist of the progressive rock/metal band Fragile Vastness which we have released two albums "...excerpts" (2002) and "A Tribute To Life" (2005). The band has been voted by the readers of the greek metal magazine "Metal Hammer" as the "Best Greek Band of the year 2005".
Collaborations: I have worked for the worldwide famous progressive metal band Fates Warning as a guitar technician and roadie during their live performances in Greece. You can see more of this collaboration of Fates Warning and me on the live dvd "Fates Warning: live in Athens".I have also worked with Duncan Patterson (ex-Anathema, Antimatter, Ion). Some of the recordings of Duncan's debut album with Ion called "Madre,Protegenos" (2006) took place at my personal studio called "Fragile". You can also check my collaboration with the well known composer/musician Michalis Nikoloudis on "Deja vu" (2001). At the moment, I'm working on my personal project " Jazzment Day" featuring Dermot Cassidy {The father of the famous actress Elaine Cassidy ("The Others","The Lost World")}, the two best bass players of Greece Yiotis Kiourtsoglou and Yiorgos Fakanas among many other great musicians...

"Vangelis Yalamas is a man with great talent and LOVE for quality music that fact is obvious in his album. My wish for his future is to keep traveling in the undiscovered harmonic worlds."
- YIORGOS FAKANAS -
"Bass player, musical composer and main producer Vangelis Yalamas successfully mixed and combined these countless musical elements and created a deep, satisfying sound. Every instrument, no matter how small a part, is audible and made an intricate piece of this progressive pie."
- Scott "Random Axe" Pierce, progressiveworld (Jan 01, 2006)
"Vangelis is an accomplished musician himself and knows what he is doing. I'd love to do a full album there with him, as he genuinely cares about all aspects of it."

"Fragile Vastness - Best Greek Band "
- Metal Hammer magazine/greece (Jan 01, 2006)
