About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

02 (a.k.a. Otto) started his relationship with music at the age of 12, when he had keybord and guitar lessons. Later, at the age of 17 he took part of some indie Greek bands. The same time he started spinning records in bars and small clubs in Athens. Until '92 he used to play hip hop, soul, funk, reggae and rocky stuff. From then, until now he has developed a strong relationship with electronic music, so, after all these years he has two profiles (call them alter egos) as a DJ. The one is a freestyle deejay combining black music, breaks, rare grooves with funky and soulful flavor and the other is a club music deejay playing house, tech house, techno and electronic music classics. Sometimes, behind the decks he begins as a freestyler to end as a electronic dance DJ. All these years he has noumerous deejay appearences in Athens and Greek island bar & club venues, trying to communicate his eclectic music profile to people.
