That's all about drummers can think about. They live, eat and breathe percussion. They wake up in the morning tapping to the music and spend their days thinking about a certain beat or drum fill.
Were there any influences that were decisive positive or negative? I started playing drums at the age of 9 piano at 18 and being a self-taught musician I made several mistakes. On the other hand, I cultivated my discipline in order to fill as much as I can the void of a professor. From then until today I do not stop the study and the search for a 'new musical ground'. Where I think I'm going to relax, there's a new musician or one of those I admire and it gives me new motivation.
I am influenced by people I see that have a great passion for music and nothing stops them from learning and becoming better at it. There are many Greek and foreign musicians who influence me, each in his own way.
