Ciao, I’m deejaying and producing music since mid 90s, ranging from Hip-Hop to Funk, Breakbeat, House and most recently Disco. I had the pleasure to release records on labels like KFM/Maffia, MòSmog, Functional, Mantra/Expanded, Strictly Groove, to collaborate with artists like Will White (Propellerheads), Howie B, DJ Rocca, to name few, and to play in many clubs and festivals all around Europe.
I love deejaying with vinyls and to perform live using samplers, synths, drum machines and all that vintage gear full of pots and buttons.
MUSIC PROJECTS
In the last 25 years I did many different solo and band projects. Some still workin’, some off the radar. Check it out:

MUSIC FOR SCREENPLAY/PERFORMANCES
Open mind and curiosity brought me to work and perform with filmmakers, contemporary dance and theatre companies. Sometimes djing, sometimes writing music, sometimes performing live, but always having fun.
