Life

Tsitsigias is the band leader of the indie rock group Schrott Grenz , which first paused at the end of 2007, disbanded in 2010, but has been active again since 2017. In addition, since 1999 he has published several MCs, LPs and CDs with side and solo projects, often on small self-operated labels such as Jerusalem Boogie, Nea Morfi or Someone Else's Tapes.

In contrast to his band projects, these releases do not contain conventional songs, but rather powerful, atonal drone music and soundscapes.

Tsitsigias achieved his breakthrough as a producer and sound engineer through his formative collaboration on the album "Mit uns nicht!" By the Harburg music duo Dirty Dishes .

In 2009 Tsitsigias played guitar and drums in the electro-punk formation Das Bierbeben and the Hamburg experimental band Station 17 . The third and untitled album by Das Bierbeben was released in 2009 on the Berlin label Shitkatapult . Tsitsigias has been taking over the drums at Kommando Sonne-nmilch since 2010 .

He lives in Hamburg.
