Born in 1983 in Instanbul but raised in Athens Monsieur Mostradamus showed his musical and artistic abilities at a very young age. At the age of 10 he was allready a holder of the 1st mini hifi and the 1st 10cds and he was experimenting in mixing tapes. Passing through various music styles and always posted on the new trends, his interest settles in the domestic Hip Hop scene and the year 1996 the Dr Dre track ''Nothin' but a G thang'' (The Chronic-1992) becomes the cause to dedicate himself only in the sounds of urban black music.Once a graffiti artist and now a graphic designer, Monsieur Mostradamus is also a collector of various kinds of music, since one kind only couldn't satisfy his restless spirit. A trully strong follower of black music, he was presented for every event that concerned his favorite sounds. (concerts,festivals,parties).Always looking for a way to impart his love and taste in music to the world, in 2001 he stands behind the decks of a local bar and states himslef as a Hip Hop and RnB Deejay. From 2001 untill 2006 he's being hosted at small and big night clubs, radiostations such as Planet fm and Atlantis fm,and events such as the Athens Tunning Show(2006) and Step In The Arena (Mc Battle show 2007), and he's being acknowledged as one of the 1st Djs who played Hip Hop and RnB in clubs mixing mainstream and underground tracks. His name has been affiliated with the RnB party organizing crew MAD G.Q. (officially the 1st crew which played Hip Hop and RnB music in clubs in athens ) and also the BENJAMINS, as well as he's been a former member but also the co-creator of the last one.As his pursuit in music was growing deeper his need for creation was increasing. Therefore in 2006 he established a new band by the name ''Silent Forces'' and brought out their official mixtape which had straight underground sound and look. After the release of their mixtape the band broke up and went their own path.After one more brief stint as a Hip Hop and RnB Dj, in 2007 he desides to make a radical change in the routes of his favorite sounds, focus deeply and exclusivelly in Soul-Funk-Rare Disco and 70's - 80s sounds and also open a new "door" to Deep-Soulfull and Disco House music witch he also loved as well. With his close friend and collaborator Chris Child they form the ''Soul Sense'' team and they also work with the saxophone player NOISE at the ''Supersoul'' and ''Ballin'' events.Allways creative in the decks, Monsieur Mostradamus's Dj set includes Rare Disco-Boogie-Deep-Soulfull-Afro and DiscoHouse grooves that is certain to leave no listener who knows how to enjoy himself untouched.He is also a collector and a lover of every Soul and Funk sounds.Being a perfectionist gives him the confidence to stand behind anything that has to do with the look, design and promotion of his name and that makes him a very busy man!Clubs/Appearances: In Athens: Jesters (Glyfada), Envy (Aytokinisi), In Da Club, Chroma-Chroma, Club 22, Venue-Bedroom [Varkiza (residency)- Psirri], Bo club, Skybar, Kingz, Jetlag, Messiah (Kolonaki), Pluto restaurant (Now Rojo restaurant, Kolonaki), Balux (Glyfada), Balux cafe - The House project (Glyfada), Studio 54 (GR), Mercedes club (Glyfada), Dekko bar-restaurant (Kolonaki), One Happy Cloud (Psirri), Nest (Glyfada), Bolivar beach bar (Anavissos) etc.
