“Kostas had his first pirate radio station in Greece before graduating high-school, and then it all went downhill after that. In Amsterdam he hosted a weekly program in the legendary pirate station RADIO 100, and in Singapore he co-hosted Eklektikon in the internet based station SONAR RADIO. He got involved in the Dragon Kiln reggae parties, and then went on to co-found Kilowatt Soundsystem, trying to bridge different sounds at irregular, indoor and outdoor events all across Singapore. For this month’s Tropical Temple you can expect a vinyl set of afrofunk & afrodisco, together with modern latin & african beats.”
