About Me

My career as a performing musician began at the age of 13, in 1994, playing the lead guitar with my first band from Turin, Italy, called "The Stonehenge". In the same period I started to compose the first jingles for commercials and soundtracks for short movies, made for fun with some friends in our spare time. After a couple of years I joined other bands, playing guitar, bass, drums and piano, gaining more experience on stage and live performances. The interest in composing soundtracks was meanwhile increasing, receiving more commissions and works from both amateurs and friends who little by little became more and more professional in the cinematographic sphere. It influenced a lot the way I was composing pop-music, which evolved from a powerful and traditional hard rock to a more personal psychedelic melodic rock, that I shortly call "evocative rock".So on until July 2002, when I laid my first right foot on England: I was supposed to stay in London for five weeks of holydays; but while busking at Covent Garden a man approached and, after few seconds of listening, introducing himself as a producer, he offered me his help to record some songs. I had an album ready, so I said: "Why not?!" and I stayed. In the recent four years I have gained more experience in the music field, playing with the bands "Elysian", from London, and with the "Faster Inferno", from Cambridge, while keeping alive the collaborations with directors and film-makers from Italy.White Stellar myspace layouts

You are Strength

Courage, strength, fortitude. Power not arrested in the act of judgement, but passing on to further action, sometimes obstinacy.

This is a card of courage and energy. It represents both the Lion's hot, roaring energy, and the Maiden's steadfast will. The innocent Maiden is unafraid, undaunted, and indomitable. In some cards she opens the lion's mouth, in others she shuts it. Either way, she proves that inner strength is more powerful than raw physical strength. That forces can be controlled and used to score a victory is very close to the message of the Chariot, which might be why, in some decks, it is Justice that is card 8 instead of Strength. With strength you can control not only the situation, but yourself. It is a card about anger and impulse management, about creative answers, leadership and maintaining one's personal honor. It can also stand for a steadfast friend.

Influences: I grew up listening to a lot of psychedelic and hard rock music, such as Pink Floyd, Queen, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Guns N' Roses, Richie Havens, Jimi Hendrix, Jethro Tull, Rolling Stones and The Beatles and more recently Radiohead, Muse, Jeff Buckley, Scott Matthew, Zero 7, Nusrat Fateh Ali Kahn, Amon Tobin, Chemical Brothers and composers and scorers such as Thomas Newman, Danny Elfman, Yann Tiersen, Hans Zimmer, Morricone and Gyorgy Ligeti. More than "influences", I consider them musicians who speak a language I can understand.
