Daniel Almeida aka Leppy, initiated his taste for music in his earlier days by learning toplay keyboards/organ and guitar in his childhood. When he became a teenager he beganexploring the rhythms of the djembe, an instrument that he still often uses today.
Later he felt attracted to Metal, mainly in his melodious, heavier and darker side. Withthese influences he made a few projects with some garage bands and made some liveperformances.
Afterwards he discovered other musical genders, more melodic but also alternative, from the80s Gothic to the actual Trip-Hop which introduced him the taste for the sequenced beatsand electronic ambiences.
He made a few collaborations with the alternative band LoveYouDead , and today he makes part ofit.
In 2002, influenced by the music andsub-culture of Psychedelic Trance he started his own solo project under the name Leprekaun,experimenting new ways and sounds like the strong kicks and baselines as well as somenocturnal ambiences and melodies. Today Leppy is producing some killer night musics with a great feedback from the public.
