The title track received significant airplay on Smooth Jazz and eclectic stations and was used in Jacob's Coffee TV commercials. For World Prayer, the Virgin Megastore magazine raved: "Few Greeks up to now have been able to make their presence felt in the international music world, always with the enchanting atmosphere that Antaeus creates..." zero4 is his latest release. In it, he blends urban and club beats with ethnic melodies and ambient sensitivity. "Palm of the Prophet," one of the album's tracks, has been included in the new BUDDHA BAR VIII compilation. Several songs from the album are receiving airplay on chill, Smooth Jazz, and eclectic stations around the world. In his review of zero4 at enigmaonline.com, Thomas Martin wrote: "I'll recommend Antaeus to anyone who owns Paul Simon's Graceland and Air's Virgin Suicide Soundtrack."
