With all respect, 
These sounds ARE not Greek, there is NO Rhythm and Music in it.
It is 100% Erasmian, but less than 10% Greek.
If you would like to compare the acoustics, listen to Byzantine melos and in particular how a Ειρμολογικό reading of Gospel or Epistle readings sounds in the Orthodox church.
