"music fighting reality"

About Me

Born in Thessaloniki,Greece...Considering myself as a citizen of the world though... Started studying the violin in the age of 9 which for sure changed the whole route of my life...Beethoven,Bach,Stravinsky,Skalkotas and Xenakis joined the childhood along with many books.In the years that would come music and reading was the main aspects of a life that was asking for more and more.Prodigy,Age of Love and Black Sabbath joined the fellowship of the heroes starring in the books of S.King and J.Vernes.The journey has started and there was no coming back. In love with music,in love with surrealistic painting and poetry,in love with science but most of all in love with partying. The idea of jamming with a DJ was spinning in my mind and although i was jamming with several DJs in Thessaloniki by the age of 16,a really good chance was given during my studies in Boston (BERKLE COLLEGE OF MUSIC) were i started playing the violin along with DJ SPARKLE (resident in Arlinghton Mansion) on drum 'n' bass hits.Once again a blend of music,partying and endless colorful nights promising a world where "the multitude of the passengers enjoy love without and beyond limits" as the great A.Embirikos said in Great Eastern... During all these years,experience in playing was increasing not only by playing with Djs as DJ Lavour and DJ Tedd Patterson but also while recording for PERASMA.Sotiris Noukas,my favourite "Studioman" (Underground Studio,Thessaloniki) will always be considered as one of the persons who "taught" me how to play the violin. Two wonderful shows in "Mylos",Thessaloniki with "Perasma",an awsome cd single (Swing to Swing Fro') and many uncountable hours recording...thank you Sotos... Before leaving Thessaloniki,some more great times in studio,recording and rehearsing,along with "Minus One"....All the guys were great but i think i must specially thank George "the Doctor"...for many many reasons..hehe!!! Now living in Athens....meeting new people,new places but the cause remains the same...trying to find out my self through music.... I was incredibly lucky,meeting Zorz Pilali...The "Teacher"...A person with humour but most of all knowledge...Knowledge on music,life and philosophy. Joining his band but also spending time with this "Holy Monster" makes you wandering in new paths of music and thinking.Rehearsing and having gigs with Zorz and the other "Monster" of Greek rock music and acting...Dimitris "the Oldman" Poulikakos is always fun.... Partying and playing the music i love ain't stopping there though.. Petros Floorfiller an excellent professional and also an awsome person honours me with his trust and together we jam till morning several nights every month around Athens.Combining my violin melodies with his up-cheering tunes results into feelings,colours and sounds that you must taste...(for more info you can also check www.floorfiller.gr). That's all for now....hope to see you there..wherever that would may be... :) ....and don't forget.... ONCE YOU SHAKE HANDS WITH THE DEVIL,YOU CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT IT!!!!!!
