About dPen
Born in 1982 in Athens-Greece, Yannis was exposed in several music styles and scenes from an early age. This variety of music styles transmet him a strong passion for an inner quest to find the kind of music that would represent him and express his feelings. Saxophone and Flute player, having a diploma in music production from Berklee College of music, Yannis started to produce electronic music under the name 'dPen'.
His first productions catch the attention of Hernan Cattaneo back in 2006 and since then dPen has several releases in well known labels such as Tiesto’s Black Hole, Renaissance, Jetlag, Nordic, deep Focus, Restart, Presslab, TSOE, Sutil, Pangea, Behold, Mestija, Feral Code, SOG. His latest tracks are already signed with Nick Warrens Hope recordings and an upcoming label with a bunch of star producers already in their roster, named 'Silence Through Music'.
But dPen is not just another producer. His tracks enjoy, among others, the support of John Digweed Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren and Paul Van Dyk. His sound has something unique as he combines tech beats with a progressive feeling and hunting melodies. Every song is a small story that reflects feelings and emotions.
Currently, dPen has finished 2 new remixes for Quivver, Anthony Pappa and Chris Fortier for Silence Through Music label, his is preparing his new monthly web tv show and his new live performance.
dPen and FabFilter
"It all started four years ago when I visited the studio of a fellow producer '7G' in order to produce a new track together. After three hours, we were stacked with the built up and we felt that something was missing. While looking for the unique sound that would make a difference my friend introduced me FabFilter One... Oh My God!!! what a sick sound, it took us around 10 minutes to find the proper sound, while playing with its fancy knobs and after one hour the track was ready!"
"In a digital world that everything sounds plastic and 'dead', FabFilter synths can give you this extra something that is missing from all the electronic production. Thank you FabFilter!"
