Ifeature

At 24, Jan Contopidis, known professionally as iFeature, has made a significant mark in electronic music. Although his parents played music casually, his father as a guitarist/vocalist and his mother as a pianist, they weren't professional musicians. Nonetheless, Jan’s early exposure to music led him to start piano lessons at age 5, eventually branching into self-taught drums, guitar, and electronic music. Inspired initially by M4SONIC Launchpad video, he began exploring Ableton Live. His passion for music production was further fueled after discovering Virtual Riot and Panda Eyes streaming on Twitch, motivating him to develop his own unique style. This style blends Dubstep, Drum and Bass, Complextro, and Brostep with elements of House and Trap, as well as influences from Hip Hop and R&B. Jan is also the creator of the Popstep Anthem (PSA) genre, a unique fusion of heavy bass music, pop vocals, and cinematic soundscapes. Tristam played a pivotal role in mentoring Jan, helping him improve his vocals and guiding his growth as an artist. Under his alias yanvince, Jan explores electronic pop and indie music, while producing spacey Dubstep and Riddim as Vikture, a project he launched in 2018. Jan’s music is released through NCS, Subsidia, Panda Eyes Records, and his own label, Athos. Recognized by artists like Excision and Virtual Riot, Jan has also collaborated with brands such as Intel and Riot Games.
