Hi, I'm a young producer and DJ from the Southern Switzerland. I live in Vezia (small village near Lugano), I'm 27 and I've always listened to music. When I was younger I used to listen to dance music which was, in my opinion, the best in this genre from 1994 to 1996.
In the year 1996 I decided to buy my first two turntables and a mixer just to make some sound experiments. Times became more serious in 1999, when I bought a new mixer and two Technics SL-1210MK2 decks. My fist party was in the beginning of the year 2000 in front of 750 people. I was very shaken during my first performance and two months later I span in another party with a better feeling. During that event I was contacted by the art director of the biggest local club, but I couldn't mix there that time because I was still under-age (17 years old).
When I turned to 18 I began to spin at that club (Alcatraz Club in Riazzino). It was great. I had the opportunity to know big artists like DuMonde, Cosmic Gate, Flutlicht (click here to see a flyer).
I've spun later also in two raves, one with Mauro Picotto as special guest (flyer).
Unfortunately Alcatraz Club closed in the year 2002 and currently I don't have dates anymore. I spin sometimes in bars or local little events. In November 2003 a Trance set mixed by me has been broadcasted on beatFM radio in Belgium.
In the year 2000 I started producing with Rebirth from Propellerheads software. It was a good program for beginners and I tried to take the best from it. When I was in the intention to upgrade to Reason 1.0.1 I made my last track in Rebirth called "Looking for a Reason".
I used Reason for almost one year and my last tune made 100% with that software was called "Endless galaxy". With that tune I participated to the Trance.nu producing competition in march 2003, unfortunately without success since I still had a lot to learn. "Hearts explosion" was the first track in collaboration with Roby-Sky's voice and it has been released by a little promotional record label in Holland (printed on CD). Anyway these tracks were still not perfect and the sounds I used are raw and not enough processed...
That time I decided to change my setup to some hardware devices. Reason sounds were, in my opinion and that time, not real enough for the quality I wanted to achieve. After working during the summer I had enough money to buy a basic equipment for building a little studio. I was really intended to try to improve the quality of my productions during the next years. My style has become a Trance with some melodies but at the same time full of energy. At the same time I think that in my productions there will always be some features that distinguished the great time of the Trance music from the year 1998 to 2001.
At the end of the year 2005 IDK, a friend of mine from Germany, invited me in Saarbrücken for spinning from 2 to 6 a.m. in a local club. It was the first time I had a date abroad and I was very excited about that.
I've always had the idea to achieve a professional quality in my productions, which maybe has arrived only in the last tracks. In the year 2008 my track “Astra” has been released by Tieva Records, a Finnish digital Label.
