ABOUT
Yu Gi Music Selectah (Parotsidis Georgios) was born in 1977 in Narva town, Estonia. Since his early age, he was particularly obsessed with "mixing up" his parents' vinyls. At the age of 16, he started up as a performer and songwriter for the adolescent Hip Hop band "Rap State" in Estonia, which ended up having great resonance with the country's youthful audience. His involvement with rap music continued after moving to Greece at the age of 19, by participating in the "Da Regulatorz" MC group with many live performances and releases of demos. During the last four years, Yu Gi has participated in the African percussion group of Thessaloniki, named "Krousi," joining in its live performances of both African and Ethnic rhythms, while at the same time he is a member of the Greek rock group "Archanthropuses," performing cajon and bongos in their music repertoire. His continued interest and love for music have motivated him to make voluntary contributions, such as his personal radio presentation and production on the web radio of the Greek Research Organization with his live show called "Sound Colors," since the beginning of February 2015. Beyond the live DJ sets in collaboration with his percussion tutor and collaborator Kiourktsi - Nick Tourbis, the abundance of his live shows as a special guest at many Café - Bars in Thessaloniki city, and his music diligence in many social events, special gatherings, and parties have already made him a pioneer in unique music selections of Jazz, Funk, Soul, Blues, Reggae... and even more music kinds and rhythm trends!
