Dimitris Skamnakis

Music teacher and trainer, Clinician, Endorser, Professional and Session Musician.

I was born in Pireaus in Greece and I have been playing music for 40 years. I have worked with almost all the Greek composers and singers, and have taken part in concerts for the UNESCO and MEDITERRANEO festivals. I have played to theatres of Bulgaria, Romania, Switzerland, Cyprus, Austria, Germany, Sweden, Italy, USA, Canada, Australia, Africa, Turkey, and Israel. For the last few years, I have been teaching in the Athens-Psychiko College, one of the most well-known colleges in Greece. Being in the music scene for 40 years Zildjian has been my one and only partner that I would never change.

  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    I am searching in music places that never been found till now. I show confidence to my instinct pushing the limits further and building slowly my personal sound and style. My spiritual shelter is a musical journey based on freedom,expression and creativity.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    As the greatest philosopher Platonas said: Music gives soul to the universe, wings in our thoughts, raises up fantasy, and gives joy to sadness and life to everything.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    Custom Hybrid Κ with their rich crystal clear sound that is not depending in the force applied through the stick and 2) Κ Custom Dark for their warm,clean and mid range sound.
