Since his very early age Nonnus has always felt related to technology and it is no surprise that as he grew up he got deeply involved with it in many different levels: professionally,emotionally and musically.

Started DJing in 1997 and produced some parties by himself mainly to spread his new and fresh music around portugal to people that had never heard it before.
In 98, after playing in several big events including Good Mood (Boom Festival original producer company), he became one of the first international portuguese trance djs, with a booking in South Africa together with couple of Boom Festival DJs.

In 2000 he joined portuguese techno-trance party producer Hipnose as DJ / Line Up Manager / Promoter and in the following year he performed in some of the biggest portuguese clubs including Hardclub, Pacha (Ofir), Paradise Garage and taking part on some of the biggest dance events in Portugal like Optimus Hype@Meco 2001 with over 30000 people.
He was also involved in the launch of Flow Records, the pioneer portuguese trance label (currently focused on progressive house, house, electronica) before deciding to go on his own way and start his dream sci-fi label project, Silicon Records.

In 2004 Nonnus participated in the first Heineken Found@Thirst DJ contest judged by Paul Oakenfoald and was one of the 3 portuguese finalists earning the right to perform next to big stars Jeff Mills and Timmo Maas

The logical evolution from DJ to producer evolved slowly as the technology involved in music production mutated from the exclusive hardware extravaganza to the actual software dominant democracy.
Testing inovative solutions at that time like Rebirth or learning the basics of midi sequencing and recording with Cubase VST was fun and educative but never a real production friendly environment.
Only with the arrival of Reason, Cubase SX and the newly developed VST/VSTi technology he felt confortable enough to start developing full featured tracks
hoping them to grow into fully developed music. Later, Ableton Live became his main tool for creating his music and performing live shows.
He focused on finding his own musical language and sound groove instead of following established styles, constantly improving his production techniques and tools until reaching his own unique sound: Hi Tech.

In 2007 he released his debut album on Silicon Records "3G: Audio Upgrade", quickly followed by a single release with his co project Polux (with Porter Rhodes) on spanish label 24 Bit Records.

On 2008 he created / developed iTouchMidi, the pioneer iOS suite of midi controllers (available on the App Store).
