About Me

Edoardo "Dodo" Grandi. Born in 1978, lake of Como. Now living in Milan, Italy. Always into music: starting from jazz and rock roots, then singing and playing guitar in a punk-rock band called Spoon River: demo tape "Push to flush". The love for electronic music started in 1996, descovering jungle and drum and bass, from acid jazz roots. D'n'b introduced me to the clubbing circuit, first in London. The move into house parties (mainly deep house) was quick. After house: techno, detroit sound. Used to live in Toronto, Canada. Then in Berlin, discovering all the new great minimal stuff, local electronic artists and labels and a glorious club scene.. 10 years of parties all around Europe.. Dj with the goal to play the records that blowed my mind these years.
