He is one of the most upcoming DJs & producers in Greece, known for his unique music style and uplifting vibe.

From that point OreLse made his mark and we see his tracks on labels such as Sleazy Deep, Rhythmetic, Baroque Records, White Label and many other worldwide labels. His music is supported by big brand djs, such as, Tiesto, Paul Van Dyk, Dave Seaman, Paul Oakenfold, EDX, Nick Warren, Hernán Cattáneo, just to name a few.
As a DJ, OreLse has worked with names such as Dave Seaman, Noir, Quentin Harris, Daniel Bortz, Finnebassen, Kiko Navarro, Edu Imbernon and many many more. His sets are a blend of house, tech house, techno always mixed with tribal elements, disco snaps, vocals… and never fails to entertain with his unique style and sound.
In 2014 he stood out for remixing Manos Hadjidakis – ‘Otan Erxontai Ta Sunnefa‘ which was broadcasted for the 20 years since the death of the world famous composer.
