Born in 1990, in high school I followed the guidance of Scaruffi and Ondarock. The turning point came in 2012, when I immersed myself in electronic music; since then I've specialized in club music and in semi-forgotten, vinyl-only records, to preserve a memory that would otherwise be destined to disappear. I'm a producer and DJ. Besides Ondarock, I write for Palpebrae.
