He has been spinning since 1993 (at the ripe old age of 12) drawing inspiration from artists like Sven Vath, Laurent Garnier, Pete Namlock and moreexperimental groups like Autechre, The Orb, and F.S.O.L. He has had radioshows on Sky FM Ioannina, Kiss FM Ioannina, and Super FM Thessalonika between 1995 and 1999, as well as being named Star of the Night, Best Young DJ, and snatching 4th place at the 1998 DMC Championships in Greece. John toured Italy and Germany as the warm-up DJ for the group Universal Trilogy, who incorporated electro, tech, and drum & bass with live vocals into their act with John adding his scratching skills into the mix. 1998 saw a departure from the breakbeat and drum & bass he had been playing, when he turned to the sounds of trance - now a focus of his sets which usually stems off of a deep tech house groove and encompass a wide variety of progressive sounds. The high point of John's DJ career thus far was an opening gig with the Orbital on the 2-city Electron Festival in front of 4000 people.As if this man's rap sheet wasn't long enough, he also graduated as a sound engineer from the Paster Institute of France, and is now producing original material with his brother Nick.
