Italian musician and producer, founder of the labels Kobayashi Recordings, Dancefloor Killers and Scream Recordings.

He ran away from Italy to France at the age of 17. He got his first inspiration from his brothers record collection from listening to 70's bands such as Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Frank Zappa, early Genesis then being inspired by the 80’s punk industrial metal and new wave scene.

At the end of 80’s he played bass guitar in many different new wave and punk bands in France. In the early 90’s he founded an industrial metal duo X-Rated-X inspired by Ministry, Killing Joke or NIN and began to use samplers, sequencers and drum machines. After this experience he discovered techno music and the rave scene.

In 1997 he founded the label Kobayashi where he produced his first techno releases and also artists such as Vitalic, Marco Carola, Woody Mc Bride, Oscar Mulero, Stanny Franssen, Gaetano Parisio, DJ Tonio, C.Denza and more. Scream Recordings was an acid techno project where he produced four vinyl releases. In 2001 he founded Dancefloor Killers, more dedicated to electro and dark techno music.
