About Me

My name is Philip AKA Flipper. Half Hellenic (Greek), half Swedish guy that lives in Athens. Everything in my life is about enjoying every special moment of it, appreciating everything good that surrounds me, maintaining the harmony and moderation.I work as a software engineer at an IT company.
I'm involved with music and assemble a DJ team called Mechanix with two friends Cryo and Soul Tana . We play mainly Drum & Bass, Breakbeat and some Electro.
Be aware for forthcoming productions of my cooperation with the Greek Drum & Bass artist Requiem .
Except from playing music I'm doing self studies in history and archeology. I wanted to become an archeologist when I was younger, but I ended up as a programmer. I can read various forms of Classical Greek including the different dialects. Take a look on one of my contributions here
I've spent many years living in Sweden which is my second home. Great years, good friends. I like travelling around in general. I've visited 13 different countries in europe, north and central America.
I'm here to keep in contact with friends and do some networking with new interresting people. You're all welcome!
