About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4
Guitar player, producer and electronic musician. I've got more than 20 years of musical career and 75 full lenght albums spanning many different audio and visual projects with artists and musicians from all over the world. Some of my partners and collaborators are Bill Laswell, Mick Harris, Toshinori Kondo, Thomas Fehlmann, DJ Disk and Harold Budd. I scored various soundtracks, just to mention a few "Nirvana" and "Denti" of the Oscar Prize winner Gabriele Salvatores. Among my remixes I count Almamegretta, Prince Paul/Jungle Brothers, WordSound, Robert Miles, AFA, Prozac+, The Maldoror Project and many others ranging from dub to metal and drum and bass. I'm currently planning a new album with Harold Budd, have a Black Engine, my new project with ZU, album out and another one in production since april. As well a new Ashes album featuring Bill Laswell and Raiz is now in stores on Edel Italy...and talking about Raiz, "Uno", his new solo album I produced, is in stores now for Universal. More...the 20th anniversary Sigillum S album "23/20" is available now via web and via some selected distributions. More...there's a new trio project that sees me teamed with Nils Petter Molvaer and Petulia Mattioli on visuals. More...there's a lot more coming in 2008...really a lot, so stay tuned.
And...yes. I love to play live. Improvising with a band or blasting a live electronic set it doesn't make a real difference, I just love it.
Please note: I'm here for networking reasons. I'm always interested in possible new connections and collaborations. I won't accept any comments or messages regarding bands promoting themselves and using other people pages for self promotion. If you send a message or a comment selfpromoting your band or project you'll be immedialtely erased from my friends list and labeled as spam. Sorry...use myspace as a network medium and not as an advertisng platform and everything will be all right...
