He remixed tracks by italian popstars as Jovanotti and Celentano. His sound is always original and the melodies of his tracks always stick to your mind.
"It's about 21 years that I produce music and during the years I explored different kinds of music", he explains. "But I always go back to what gives me the biggest emotions. I grew up with Atari, new wave, Dark and new romantic. In my songs I always quote these worlds!".
His recent single "Turn off the Lights" follows his late solo debut, "God Can't Sleep When ur Sad", out in 2012. The track was released in December 2012, is sung by William Naraine and it's a global hit.
