Highjacks is a project of Dj/Producers duo from Greece between of Harris Tzigkounakis and John Tzigkounakis
Harris Tzigkounakis (aka Funkyfish) started as a Dj at the early 00's in local clubs, bars and parties and that continued while he moved for his studies to Patras. Since 2005 he has started producing his own music and working in partnership with several artists and young local producers. The result of this work was a number of original tracks, remixes, bootlegs and appearances all over Greece and a very strong partnership with his good friend dj and producer, Angelo M.
In the last years he moved to his own studio where he has been working on House, Tech-House and Progressive music. In 2012 he will make his first 5 track EP ''Smokin' '' released by Minitree (Thessaloniki, Greece) followed by a great gig in Tokyo City Bar (Thessaloniki) representing Minitree's Showcase. With latest releases on "Making You Dance" (Miami) and "Beachside Records" (Miami, USA) along his brother, his production style can be described as deep and tech-house with progressive vibes and sounds inspired by his influences.
John Tzigkounakis (a.k.a. Wellseen) at the age of 18 decides to get involved at a professional level with music production. He started as a dj and continued with music production. He moved in Thessaloniki where he combines studies with music and began studies in music technology and sound engineer at AKMI college. During these years, he started producing his own music and continued as sound engineer and producer in radio stations & studios till nowdays. In 2012, John has his first release on Lyr's EP ''Hat-P'' & his first EP called ''V-Touch'' by Minitree. His tracks in collaboration with his brother have been rereleased in numerous compilations such as Future Deep House (LW Recordings), Delicious House (Baccara Music) and Sick to Deep House (Bavaria Records).
