Ekkohaus was born in Greece. He took piano lessons and later won a scholarship in an orchestra percussion course. He studied vibraphone and marimba but after a few years of classical education he decided he had enough. He bought his first Roland drum machine and a cheap synthesizer and soon was transferring midi data between the 2 devices. Since then he has been introduced to computer music and nowadays he combines software and hardware equipment for his live performances. Ekkohaus's live sets are a mix of house grooves, deep bass, quirky samples and minimal structures... blend all that with an oldschool detroit feeling and u got a bit of the puzzle solved. His dj sets are a glimpse of the future through a journey in the past....a sort of...time travelling experience.... The last few years Ekkohaus has been releasing music in various lebels (Safari electronique, Multi vitamins, Kick boxer, Morris audio, Serialism, Igloo, Flumo, After dinner...snd soon Cargo edition, Brut, Level....). He has performed in London (The key, the Egg, Aquarium, Catch 22, The pool, cafe 1001, club 54...) Barcelona (Raum, Nave, Mochima, Makarena...) Berlin (Watergate, Pulp mansion, Im frachtau, Spielraum, Storage Berlin....) but also in Florence, Bolognia, Munich, Kassel, Birmingham and a handfull of venues in Athens, Greece. He has recently started his own night, "strictly no dancing", a night that focuses to the art of listening and experiencing music. A fruitful new ground for social interaction and music education. Although ekkohaus is not a religious person, he is said to be member of a secret cult that claims to be in search of the magic loop, an ecstatic situation created by the monotonus repetition of a specific frequency or rhythmic sequence, whisper , rain etc etc...
