Helena Koursou was born in Athens/Greece, March 17th of 1988. She is popular for her very early age involvement in music, design and media. After exploring her father's record collection when she was around 11 years old, she started walking on edgier music paths of indie rock & punk and then came disco, funk & old school/techno. When she began progressing her mixing skills when 14, she came up focusing on dirtier house genres like electric/groovy progressive, breaks, tech or even minimal. Better known as Helen K, she hasn't stopped serving series of twisted DJ Sets and Music Composing without limits including vocals, lyrics & keys. Inspired from artists like Steve Lawler, Sander Kleinenberg, Danny Howells, Infusion, King Unique, James Holden, Tiga and James Lavelle, she keeps the above names mixture in a corner of her head and tries to work hard in order to export her own unique style. Helena also loves to spin live, she has performed at selected gigs all over Greece and abroad.

After she had built a friendly music experience profile, in early 2005 she compiled and mixed her very first solid CD compilation called "Dub Till Dawn" which was released mid May alongside Freeze magazine (the unique and most successfull underground dance-oriented print guide in her country). Soon after that and totally out of the blue, she composed her first track "Get The Groove", having its original version featured in "Greeks United" double unmixed compilation - a CD which was out on Christmas time of 2005 by NRG Records/Universal Music in Greece. "Get The Groove" covered a joyful side of house music with funky, deep and smooth arrangement followed by her shiny vocals, proving that she can be both advanced and commercial towards the crowd.

Furthermore, Helena's internet radio activities have been receiving wicked listening rates with over than a thousand users tuned in, while her shows schedule has hosted an even wider guest list with some of the finest DJs around the globe. Radio Shows she has been famous for so far are: Space Ride (w/ Andrew K), Drag N Drop sessions (solo) and Three Hives Hammered (w/ Emanuel Phaz). Plus, some of the stations she has played at, are: Best Radio 92.6 Athens (Anna Maria X - Weekend Mix), 94 FM Athens (Muscle K - Dance Nation), Radio 1 88 FM Rhodes, Radio DJ 106.1 Rhodes, FriskyRadio.com, ProtonRadio.com, DI.fm and EccentricBeats.com, among many others.

One of her largest interests is Art, then comes Media - that's why she has been really active on those two since her 15 years. Back in 2002, she created her personal Design project titled "Plusdesigns.net", specialized in Print & Web constructions. Magazine Journalism has also been a part of her life. Since 2003, she enjoys working as a Music Editor by writing articles, reviewing and interviewing for TheCityVibe.com and Freeze Magazine.

Around her 18 and a half years, Helena found luck knocking her life door roughly after receiving a direct 3rd year entry scholarship for Graphic/Visual Communication Design BA honors in UK's Middlesex University. She instantly grabbed the chance and she decided to move in London of course, in order to let the studies begin and change to a whole new way of looking at the day. This also stood as a good chance to enrich her music activities since Britain was always famous for its acclaimed music industry and huge nightlife. So, with numerous interests and hundreds of future targets, she's still going and her light of success is growing day by day!
