VI.BE

Hi, I'm Nicholas Thomsen-Kotsifou, 20 years old, born in Brussels to a Greek mother and a Danish father. My passion for electronic music dates back to my early years, when my mother played artists like Moby, Massive Attack, and Faithless in the living room. Their music left a lasting impression on me and laid the foundations for my relationship with music.

I grew up listening to these unique vibes, but it was when I discovered the techno scene in the Netherlands, especially in Rotterdam when I started my studies there, that I really dived into the electrifying world of electronic music. The percussive sounds, the hypnotic rhythms, all of it captivated me and inspired me to find my own voice in this vast world of music.

Of all the artists who have influenced me, Mall Grab and Future666 hold a special place in my heart right now. Their productions literally shook me and pushed me to explore new musical directions, step out of my comfort zone, and push my own creative boundaries.

When I got my turntables for my eighteenth birthday, a new chapter opened in my life. Instead of spending hours on the PS4, I spent endless hours DJing in my bedroom, experimenting with different sounds, and perfecting my techniques. And then, in 2023, I had the opportunity to take the stage to DJ at my first event. It was so exciting and terrifying at the same time, but when I felt the energy of the crowd, when I saw people dancing and smiling, I knew that this was what I wanted to continue in this world and push all boundaries.

Since that moment, I haven't stopped. I continue to explore new sounds, refine my style, and share my passion with those close to me. I'm ready to continue this journey, push boundaries, and create magical moments on the dance floor.
