about
Alkan was born in his hometown Serres, Greece in 1974. The late 80s - early 90s revolution of electronic music inspired him to broadcast all his enthusiasm about favourite sounds and productions throughout a continuous 12 years radio show, from 1994 to 2006. Always working towards refining his skills and technique as a dj, he has been a devoted participant at a large number of Greek gatherings, including open air festivals and indoor/outdoor parties. He was also the founder of “Psy-Opt”, a short – timed but hyperactive crew of Dj’s , visual artists and supporters who used to organize several local events from the beginning of 00’s till 05. His virgin contacts with music synthesis had already given birth to “Myisis”, a greek psychedelic band of friends in the years 1997-98. For all the following years he would commit himself into building knowledge around music technology, collecting and recording samples. His first conscious steps in producing came out effortlessly and most naturally after the birth of his daughter in 2006, which broadened his vision of creativity forms in music production. As a producer he mostly enjoys seeding oldschool elements in fresh context. His latest personal piece of work under the project name “Alpha-Tek” and with a dark pagan approach can be found in Ultimae’s forthcoming compilation “Ambrosia”. Alkan’s collaborations with other artists are also to be released at Altar http://altar.bandcamp.com/track/samo8raki & http://altar.bandcamp.com/track/k
