Basement Freaks


He launched his Basement Freaks project in 2005 and in the space of a year he had an album out on the Greek label Music Kitchen Records which received high praise from the likes of Kraak & Smaak and Stereo MCs. It earned him remix work for acts like Smoove & Turrell, Chris Joss, A.G.F.A and Rephrase. US label South City Recordings then released his first solo 12″ EP and in the same year he met Quasamodo and began their long and illustrious working career by collaborating with him for a release on Goodgroove which became a top seller and gained them both even more recognition.

Not happy to settle with the steady the stream of releases being notched up next step was to work on a live act and so the Smokey Bandits was born in 2007. Linking up once again with Quasamodo and another 17 musicians he recorded an album of nu-jazz, balcan beats and cinematic musical pieces which got released after 3 years by Klik Records to smash all the Greek indie radio charts.

This was merely a side project though and Basement Freaks have continued to go from strength to strength with releases and remixes on countless labels that have received radio play from the likes of Craig Charles (RadioBBC 6) and Ali B (Kiss FM). Add to this a steady stream of DJing gigs at clubs and festivals all over Greece and Europe and you can see why this guy is big business. Since late 2008 he has been living Cologne in Germany in order to enhance his career. Same year he becomes a member of Bureau45 agency, and co-operates with the radio station “Funkhaus Europa” (of the WDR stable!). As Global Player (Resident Dj of Funkhaus Europa) he has toured across NRW.
