The story of Leonid K begins at warehouse events in Russia in 2006. Growing up surrounded by a large vinyl collection spanning classical, jazz, and contemporary music, his early influences naturally led to experimentation with styles such as jungle, drum and bass, downtempo, and trip-hop. After moving to Moscow in 2009, he developed a strong connection with deep house, playing at various clubs including Hollywood, Garage, Cister­na Hall, Minibar, Riverbass, and UFO Club, while also promoting events and earning his first residency. During this period, he travelled extensively across the country, regularly performing in cities such as Saint Petersburg, Yaroslavl, Ryazan, and others. Following a break from public artistic activity between 2014 and 2025, Leonid K continued to expand his music collection and remained deeply engaged with electronic music culture as a listener. Returning in 2025, he resumed active DJing in London, focusing on deep, progressive, and organic house. He currently co-runs METANOIA project, a melodic techno and progressive house event series. In a short period of time, he has appeared at events hosted at Dalston Den, Brixton Radio, UCH, 45 London, and other venues.
