Confident solely in controversy, Anestie only stands still in the utmost moments of insanity, as if for emphasis. Born in Athens, Greece, on a rainy day * in the long forgotten 80's, Anestie to his mom, always had an innate and almost unbearable itch for music. At the age of nine, his dad sponsored the purchase of his first vinyl, Deep Purple's Made in Japan. "Growing up with 70's and 80's rock sparked a lifestyle of not caring much," he admits, but it also made him quickly realize his love for music. Unable to play any instruments, DJing became the quick remedy he was searching for. From then on, while gigging with the likes of Rhadoo, Petre Inspirescu, Kassem Mosse, Cabanne and everybody in between and live appearances in the UK, Japan, Mexico, USA, France , a guest mix for Nic Fanciulli's Worldwide Sounds prestigious radio show, Anestie started showing his abilities to the world.
