Nikolas Asimos was a Greek composer and singer. Asimos was a very special case of a counter-culture artist, mostly because of his choice of uncompromising lifestyle. He used to record his songs in friends' houses and circulated them in the 'underground' community. His behaviour and songs were often received as provocatory by the general public. He was a person with strong political opinions. Ideologically, he could be categorised as an anarchist but himself never accepted his categorisation into a specific political ideology.
He was very eager for learning as a young man. In 1967 he enrolls in the Philosophical School of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. He was often involved with theater during his college years, while he was writing songs and he was singing in various boîtes of Thessaloniki.
He often had problems with the police, particularly during the period of military rule — junta — in Greece and the consequent restriction on civil liberties, i.e., freedom of expression, that such regimes enforce.
He wrote songs which were not recorded officially, but in private, on tapes that he would then sell on the streets of Athens. He performed in boîtes around Plaka.
He wrote his book Anazitontas Krokantropous (Αναζητώντας Κροκανθρώπους) which was never officially published, but was circulated by himself in photocopies. In his later years and after his death, the book was also made available by a publishing house. In 1982 he released his long play record titled O Ksanapes (Ο Ξαναπές).
