Biography
Zsolt Palotai was the son of Hungarian footballer Karoly Palotai. As a child, he attended a primary music school, practicing daily.

This influenced him heavily to the point that he devoted his life to music. He played his first gig as a DJ in 1989.Barna, p. 123 In the late 1980s and the early 1990s, he was an important figure in the emergence of Budapest's cultural meeting point called '' Tilos az Á''.
