Yanni Katopodis better known as (YIND) is a dynamic house music producer with a rich and diverse musical journey. From his humble beginnings experimenting with FL Studio and Ableton in the mid-2010s, YIND’s sound has been shaped by his early exposure to house & trance music thanks to his mother’s influence.
It was at a friend’s house where YIND first experienced the world of Melbourne bounce, igniting a passion for dance music that has only grown stronger over the years. Inspired by the sounds of Will Sparks, his obsession with the genre led him to dive deeper into production. His path would soon cross with industry legends Caleb Amir (Amir) and Nick Panlook (Nikeloadeon), whose mentorship played a pivotal role in shaping his sound. Without their guidance, YIND believes he wouldn’t be where he is today with his production.
YIND’s music seamlessly blends groove-heavy basslines and deep tech elements, creating a distinctive style that has earned him recognition and respect in the dance music scene. Over the years, his talent has led to notable milestones, including performances at Aura Festivals and playing on the same line up with international heavyweight James Zabiela on New Year’s Eve. He has also secured releases with respected record labels such as Six Records, Psymal Records and Ultrawave Records, further solidifying his presence in the industry.
As a passionate and dedicated artist, YIND’s commitment to his craft continues to drive him forward, with each new track showcasing his evolution as a producer. Whether you’re catching him live or listening to his latest release, his journey through sound is one worth following.
