Gigi was born in Bydgoszcz. As a kid he moved to Germany, where he heard techno for the first time. When he was 16 he came back to Poland and settled in Warsaw. There he started attending the legendary Trend club, where he got to know the music of such artists as: Jeff Mills, Adam Beyer or Cari lekebusch. In 1997 he started his own radio show called "strictly underground" (later "minimalna prawda") at radiostacja, a poland-wide radiostation, which at these times supported underground music very much. He invited lots of great artists to the show, both polish and foreign artists. Such foreign artists as dj Pete aka Substance, Sender Berlin, Sutekh, Damon Wild, Highfish & Diringer, and such polish artists as Jacek Sienkiewicz, Echoplex, Reck, Pete Bull or Mic Ostap have perfomed there. Later "minimalna prawda" was not only a radio show anymore. Gigi started regular parties under this name at the cult club "Kotly (B65)". Currently his favourite labels are: Kompakt, Ware, PokerFlat, Perlon, Klang Elektronik, Playhouse and Forte.
