I'm a composer and music lover who writes music for his pleasure and for the satisfaction of getting it heard and appreciated. I'm currently working as an ambitions amateur/semi-professional in my small home studio, and from here, when I feel like and am inspired, can bring out even 5 tracks a week... though I don't release all on the internet, but prefer to keep many by side for an eventual record deal, which I'm currently searching.
Some history: At the age of about 10 years I took piano lessons for a year. I began to compose at the age of 15 years (in 1991), having no notions of music theory, with a Commodore Amiga 1000 computer, using an assisted composition program. I soon passed to software samplers on an Amiga 500, more difficult to use but with wider possibilities. For years I composed just "by ear". In 1995 I began playing electric guitar and took theory and practice lessons from Christian Lorenzi. In 1999 I passed from Amiga to a modern PC, and used software samplers, the hardware samplers built into my soundcard, a software synthesizer and little later a Yamaha keyboard, a selection of instruments to which later in 2001 I added a powerful Korg Triton Rack synthesizer. I also began to release my pieces on the internet, receiveng mostly positive comments. From the middle of year 2000 to almost the middle of year 2001 I published 6 albums on sale only online at MP3.com. At the beginning of 2001 I started taking flute lessons with Maria Grazia Tosi. At about the middle of 2001 I began taking music theory lessons from Paolo Peruffo, lessons which are now proceeding with good results for me. At the end of september 2002 I re-started taking electric guitar lessons, and re-started also taking practical keyboard lessons with Paolo Peruffo. |

"Music to travel into sensations, oneiric landscapes and delicate paintings with the aid of electronical machines." (Musix);
"Layered synths offer reflective new age instrumentals. Lethargic rhythms, heavy melodies, and sharpened textures make for ideal, wistful, late night listening." (Melissa P., Listen.com editor) |
