Junior SP


Electronic and R&B/Soul
A.k.a. Γιώργος Σπηλιωτόπουλος

Based in Athens, Greece, Junior SP.’s name is synonymous to Drum’n’Bass in his country. Very few people can take equal credit in building up a movement and pushing the sound within a certain territory, as Junior SP.’s multi-tasking and constantly evolving activities for more than two decades, have helped establish Drum’n’Bass and other breaks related music genres in Greece. George Junior SP. started DJing back in the distant 1992 and it took him just 2 years to realize that pushing D’n’B and other breaks related music genres would be a life mission, so he started promoting & DJing at the legendary “Infinity” nights based at the iconic club “Alsos” from 1994 until 1996. He then created Innersense Productions in 1996 and up until the present day, he has hosted over 70 (!) artists in Greece, most of them for the very first time in the country. Having completed a decade of constant DJing, from the biggest, most known clubs & bars in Athens, Thessaloniki & Mykonos, to the Olympic Stadium in Athens, to the very far ends of Greece, it was time for Junior SP. to start producing, so he got in the studio in 2002, and his first official release came in 2005, with “Timeless Playground” LP alongside Milto Eph, a cinematic breaks/funk/DnB album that was critically acclaimed and included in the Top 10 Greek Albums of the year in relative media lists. His involvement with music and clubbing led him to yet another path, where he co-created and co-owned his own venue, called “The EARTH Bar”, located at Psirri area, Athens between 2005 – 2009, while unstoppably DJing with his INNERSENSE nights but also with his then side projects, “Urbanizm” (dnb nights) alongside fellow producer & DJ Cryogenics and “Rave-O-Lution 8808” (old school nights), alongside long time companion Harris Funxion. Proceeding and reaching the present, Junior SP. has been busier than ever, heavily promoting his INNERSENSE nights, DJing and producing fresh music, already demonstrating releases on Liquid Drops, In Da Jungle Recordings, Tuna recordings, Bashment Records and KNKUC, while having other releases lined up in the near future. JUNIOR SP. has performed alongside international acts (A-Z List) : 4 hero, Adam Freeland, Altern8, Blame, Blu Mar Ten, Bryan Gee, Commix, D-Bridge, Doc Scott, Dom & Roland, Ed Rush, Fabio, Future Engineers, Goldie, Grandmaster Flash, Grooverider, Intense, J-Majik, Joey Beltram, Jori Hulkkonen’s Acid Symphony Orchestra, Kasra, Kid Loco, Klute, Kosheen, Liquid, LTJ Bukem, Makoto, Marc Hype, Marcus Intalex, Mark Force (Bugz In The Attic), MC Conrad, MC Darrison, MC Deeizm, MC 2Shy, MixHell (Iggor Cavalera & Laima Leyton), Nookie, Nymfo, Phace, Phil Asher, Photek, Presha, Randall, Ray Keith, Rockwell, Seba, SKC, Shylo MC, Slipmaster J, Spectrasoul, Stamina MC, Tayla, The Prodigy, The Upbeats, Total Science, Utah Jazz, Vadim.
