Biography

Christos Panagiotopoulos (a.k.a. Chris Nemmo), is 23 years old, who originates from Patras. He has studied the harmonium (synthesizer) for 5 years as well as 2 years of music theory. He first started out with electronic music in 1996, influenced by happy and epic house as well as breakbeats. Production and the whole concept of electronic music first popped up in Chris's head when he was 15 and he acquired his first synthesizer (many thanks to father Nemmo for supporting a 'music mad' child!!).

Giannis Douskos (a.k.a. Dousk) was Chris' mentor and main influence during his first steps. His influences range from Liquid, BT, Sasha and Digweed, to film music by Craig Armstrong, Hans Zimmer, Brian Tyler and Danny Elfman, as well as Hybrid, Grayarea, Way Out West, Junkie XL, among many others.

At this period of his life he is in England starting a second master in electronic and music technology (Music Technology Systems, University of York), with DSP processing as his main academic pursuit. In the meantime he's in his studio along with his lab partner Hectoras Skoursis experimenting on new dance styles.

His CV also includes a collaboration with Jose Zamora, for the track 'Lochness' at Lowriders recs. Also, along with Dousk and Zamora, they are collaborating on the production of 'Phantoms' which will be released in a short period of time at Greg Benz's Aurium recs.
