Neil Pantos was born in 1982 and raised in Malta’s capital city Valletta. From early on he found himself drawn towards art, he went on to attend the Malta Institue of Arts, where his passion and flare for creativity had a chance to grow and flourish.

After being exposed to electronic music and the local dance scene, Pantos would never be the same again. A love for all things Electronica was born. A good friend and local DJ, Antoine Vassallo was the man responsible for his introduction to it all. He would sneak him into parties and hide him behind the DJ stand since he was too young to be allowed there. Pantos liked what he saw from that angle, the DJ stand would become that place where he would feel most at ease.

Recognising Pantos’ potential, Antoine left him his collection of records. This would be a defining moment for Pantos and went on to feed what has become an endless obsession for him.

Choosing to look further afield, Pantos travelled to Australia and spent a couple years exploring what it had to offer. Returning to Malta with a new attitude, he approached the local scene with a greater confidence. He enjoyed playing for a music conscious crowd which meant he had to keep on top of his game at all times. He went on to play at warehouse parties and various underground clubs on the island. Not before long, he had gained a weekly club residency at the afterhours club, Clique in 2004.

Teaming up with DJ and friend, Gordon Scerri, he went on to promote and play at a series of successful events featuring various International acts.
Shortly after he began his collaboration with Duncan F, already an established name in the local dance scene. Together they went on to take their music to new heights in the production studio as well as visiting and playing at new destinations such as Ibiza and London.
