About Me

Layout Created at KillerKiwi.net
Hi, I'm a Radio Dj and journalist from Thessaloniki, Greece. I'm in love with Music, Arts, History and the 90s. I speak english, spanish, italian and some french and portuguese. I wouldn't describe my self as a simple guy. As I mature, I have the feeling that I find pleasure in the most silly and simple things that others tend to ignore. I find myself laughing with no reason, from time to time. I also have the tendency to hear music from various sounds. Sounds of the city, of the streets, of the crowd, sounds of silence.. even silence has a strange sound.. I guess that most of you understand. ============================================================ ===========================I like meeting new people. This world is quite small in its greatness. I apply all seven sins on a daily basis. I like playing with Photoshop. I've restarted taking pictures. I used to play the bass. I also like cooking and wine. I lack faith. I believe in friendship. I love Techno. Somedays I'm boring and bored and these days are getting more and more frequent. That's why I left my city, Thessaloniki. I'm in Athens since the beginning of February . I guess it will be permanent.================================================== =====================================In any case, Thessaloniki offered me the chance to do several interesting things. I was involved into the first greek perfomance of Bonobo and Funk d'Void back in November of 2003. I worked for more than 4 years in 88,5 FM as a Radio Producer. I've also worked as a Cultural Editor in CityPress. I've been collaborating for years with various greek media (TA NEA, EPILOGES , SOUL, INDEX etc). But, probably my most important Thessalonian task was this story: One day I started to gather demos from Thessaloniki's producers. Some months later One Nation vol.2 was born. All this thanks to Klik Records. Also , I've prepared a new electronic compilation from all over the Balkans, I'll have news about its fate, soon. Since the end of March, I've been working at the newspaper "To Vima" - in business since 1922. That's all folks! ============================================================ ===========================
