Kaanturker was born on the 5th of February, 1983. His love for music was arising throughout all the music lessons during his school years. They say that “out of hate comes great love” thus pushed him to start having drum and guitar lessons in high school. He passed the audition of the Academy of Music of Anadolu University in 2001.

While he was studying at the Academy of Music of Anadolu University he managed to become the local radio producer, which supplied him with alot of music and a variety of diverse visions. Meanwhile, he took on more professional experience by composing for adverts and short films. After returning to Istanbul, he studied Sound Production at Galatasaray ITM for 1 year. In the meantime he was awarded 3rd at the Miller Music Factory DJ competition. After that, he signed his first contract with Holland based record label LuPS. A couple of days after releasing a remix,it was already topping the charts of many dj’s playlists. This then led to him to sign contracts with Sheeva Records, Dark Pleasure Records, Panda Recordings, Solid Fabric Recordings, Mistique Music, Balkan Connection and Plastic City.

Kaanturker has a natural ability with his hands,without prior experiance,he manages to fix washing machines, DVD players and even does plumbing. He prefers experimenting in the kitchen with unusual flavours, and creates colourful dishes. He drinks at least 15 cups of coffee a day which causes him to have anxiety attacks and for his hands to shake unstoppably - which he claims is due to the excitement he gets out of his job.
