Myron Stratis continues an alternate path in electronic music with his alter ego: Mironas.

Mironas loves electronic music in many shades: house, melodic techno, indie dance. He produces music and plays DJ sets with a common goal: a narrative that will make both the mind and the heart dance. In his sets, one can expect a special coexistence of melody and rhythm: his own tracks, music that moves him, unexpected remixes and even house/techno classics: all glued in a non-stop dance flow.

Mironas‘ love for electronic music led him to a collaboration with Echonomist. Mironas and Echonomist co-wrote and released on the Innervisions label (of Dixon and Ame) the track “Our last night”. His personal releases followed with Innervisions (Secret weapons) and Isolate (two EP’s). Then his track “Damage control” is released by Solomun’s label Diynamic on the compilation Four to the floor 30.

Mironas, in his constant musical searches, prepares new tracks and does not set any limits to creation: he will not stop communicating the magic of electronic music.

Originally from the Black Forest in Germany, he began producing his first tracks at just 17. Influences such as Kiasmos, HVOB, and Christian Löffler, contributed significantly to his development and shaped his atmospheric, and yet punchy style, until he received a personal invite from none other than Christian Löffler himself to join his label, Ki Records. With the release of his EP ‘Twilight’, Fejka made an impressive debut into the world of electronic music and has already been celebrated as an insider tip in some circles.

Having finished his studies in audiovisual media in 2019 in Stuttgart, he released his first studio album, ‘Reunion’, which only increased the surrounding excitement and quickly established him as a full-time artist in the scene. He showed his ability to create ethereal and dynamic sounds, architecting evocative tracks, which offer wondrous melodies and driving beats. After touring in numerous European countries until the end of 2019, Fejká returned to an intimate and very personal phase of music production in the following two years, leading to his highly anticipated second album ‘Hiraeth’, which will be out in Fall 2022.
